Here’s what iPhone Duo’s new two-page PDF experience looks like

Apple's upcoming iPhone Duo, slated for release in October, has been the subject of much discussion since its official unveiling in early September. A key feature of interest is its ability to display two-page PDFs, a capability that could set it apart from current iPhones. Many users frequently work with PDFs for work or academic purposes, and the iPhone Duo's ability to handle these documents more effectively could be a significant advantage.

Traditional iPhones struggle with PDF viewing, whereas iPads come in as the superior option in this regard. Therefore, the performance of the iPhone Duo in this area is a topic of keen interest. Leaker pdfu has shared a video demonstrating the Quick Look feature of PDFs on the iPhone Duo in a two-page mode. This dual-page layout could be highly beneficial in numerous scenarios.

However, I anticipate that the single-page mode will also be a strong point for the iPhone Duo. Once Apple Pencil support becomes available later this year, the iPhone Duo might become the first iPhone to offer a truly exceptional PDF viewing experience. Your thoughts on this are invited: do you foresee using the iPhone Duo as a regular PDF viewer?
