Apple's first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, made its debut alongside the iPhone 18 Pro lineup on September 9. The device's price of Rs. 2,99,900 in India became the center of online memes as users struggled to comprehend the cost. Some joked that two incomes would be needed to afford the phone, while others suggested it had two screens due to the difficulty in displaying the EMI breakdown.
The term "iPhone Duo" itself was a source of humor, implying that buyers would need two jobs to purchase it. Comparisons were made to other expensive items, such as the Royal Enfield Himalayan motorcycle and the Tata Tiago car. IT employees even joked about their salaries being insufficient to buy a single device. The old "kidney joke" resurfaced as well, with users joking about selling organs to afford the phone.
Despite the jokes, the iPhone Duo is Apple's biggest redesign of the iPhone line, featuring a 7.6-inch inner display and a 5.4-inch outer screen. It runs on Apple's A20 Pro chip and offers up to 2 terabytes of storage.
