Apple iPhone Duo 2 with Face ID is reportedly being tested even before the first foldable hits shelves
One of the biggest complaints about the iPhone Duo is the lack of Face ID, but Apple may already be working to solve that issue.
The Apple iPhone Duo 2 with Face ID is reportedly being tested even before the first foldable reaches stores, according to a recent episode of Mark Gurman's PowerOn podcast. The iPhone Duo received a high rating of 4.5 stars from Tom's Guide's Global Editor-in-Chief, Mark Spoonauer. Despite its impressive performance, the first iPhone Duo faced criticism due to the absence of Face ID, which proved to be a significant drawback for many potential buyers.
However, the upcoming iPhone Duo 2 seems to address this concern, as the podcast revealed that Apple is already testing an updated version with Face ID support. The company is reportedly working on fitting Face ID into the slim design of the foldable phone, with the help of smaller components and AI advancements. Additionally, Apple is considering adding an Action Button to the iPhone Duo 2, a feature that would bring it closer to matching the capabilities of the Pro and Pro Max models.
While it is still too early to know the final specifications of the iPhone Duo 2, the inclusion of Face ID and the Action Button could be crucial in making the device more appealing to consumers. The new iteration of the iPhone Duo is expected to launch later this fall.
