iPhone Duo sells out moments after pre-orders begin
As expected, Apple's iPhone Duo has seen shipping slip back in most configurations instantly. Apple's iPhone Duo is already on backorder. Pre-orders for the iPhone Duo began at 8 A.M. Eastern and as with most new iPhones — but not all — the stocks sold out rapidly. With the first moments, shipping dates slipped back to November 16, and then to November 23, for all configurations.

Apple's inaugural foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, launched its pre-orders today. Yet, within the blink of an eye, delivery timelines began extending to the following year. The first wave of iPhone Duo pre-orders are slated to reach customers on October 23, but this privilege is limited to those who managed to secure their order promptly.
As of 8:30 a.m. ET, all iPhone Duo models are currently backlogged until next January. Every color and storage variant indicates an anticipated shipping date of January 25. A few consumers are even witnessing a January 29 shipping estimate. This predicament arises from a blend of robust consumer demand and scarce supply for the iPhone Duo.
The extent of this challenge, however, remains unclear. Pre-launch reports suggested a potential shortage as Apple was still ramping up production. Nikkei Asia reported last month that Apple was manufacturing merely a few hundred iPhone Duo units daily, considerably slower than the pace of a typical iPhone launch.
