Apple’s foldable iPhone Duo goes on sale in South Africa

The first reviews are mixed, supply is tight, and in South Africa the Duo costs up to R77 000.

Apple's first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, made its debut in India on October 23, 2026, with customers lining up outside stores to get their hands on the innovative device. The base model, priced at Rs. 2,99,900, boasts multitasking as its standout feature, according to a satisfied customer named Rahul. Another buyer praised the phone, simply stating, "It feels great."

The iPhone Duo is available in six Apple stores across India, including Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru, with prices ranging from Rs. 2,99,900 for the 256GB variant to Rs. 3,74,900 for the 1TB version. Despite its appeal, availability remains a challenge, with pre-orders selling out within hours and deliveries delayed until January 2027.

The limited walk-in stock on launch day and high demand have led to some grey-market sellers charging up to Rs. 50,000 more than the retail price.
