I just touched the iPhone Duo and Apple just solved the foldable crease problem in the most wonderfully basic way

Apple has unveiled its first folding phone, the iPhone Duo, which addresses the crease problem in a surprisingly simple manner. The device features a 5.4-inch external display and a larger 7.6-inch internal screen, comparable to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. One key difference is Apple's redesign of iOS to accommodate the unconventional display shapes, moving controls to the right side.

The phone's matte finish, achieved through a special nano-texture coating, eliminates the crease typically visible in foldable devices, resulting in a smooth, visually appealing display. Apple has also equipped the iPhone Duo with a new 2-nanometer A20 Pro chip, improving performance and power efficiency. The phone's USB-C Apple Pencil compatibility adds an extra edge, and MagSafe charging returns, promising all-day battery life.

Overall, the iPhone Duo seems to have solved the crease issue and offers a compelling folding experience.
