Apple's anticipated demand for the new iPhone Duo has surged by 30%, according to a report by Chinese news outlet Securities Times. This increase in orders comes despite the fact that pre-orders for the device do not begin until later this week on October 16. Pre-ordering the phone will allow customers to enjoy a streamlined checkout process.
The report indicates that Apple's initial estimates for the iPhone Duo were 6-7 million units produced, but based on the increased demand, the company is targeting closer to 10 million units for the remainder of 2026. The supply for the remainder of the year is still projected to fall short of this new target, with a maximum of 10 million units.
While supply chain sources have reported a 30% increase in iPhone Duo orders, other data shows that the iPhone 18 Pro Max orders have risen by 10-15%, while the iPhone 18 Pro orders have decreased by the same amount. The overall supply targets for the iPhone 18 Pro line remain unchanged, contrary to a recent Nikkei Asia report.
With the iPhone Duo's recent unveiling and planned retail push, it is clear that Apple is receiving a better-than-expected response to the device's release.
