iPhone Duo is hard to come by right now, but these six foldables phones are in stock right now — here are the options.

iPhone Duo sold out? Here are the 6 best alternatives in stock now

The iPhone Duo is a highly sought-after foldable phone, but its availability is a concern as Apple's delivery estimates extend into late January. Despite its excellent features, there are several alternatives available right now that do not face the same supply issues. These alternatives run on Android rather than iOS, which may deter some potential buyers.

Among the best iPhone Duo alternatives is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. This device offers a passport-shaped foldable design with a 5.5-inch cover display and a 7.6-inch foldable display. The Z Fold 8 features Samsung's new Flex Titanium display technology and an anti-reflective coating to minimize glare. It is thinner and lighter than the iPhone Duo, and it allows for the simultaneous use of three apps.

The device boasts a 50MP dual-lens rear camera setup and 10MP selfie cameras on both screens. Performance-wise, it is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, and it offers AI features at a price $100 lower than the iPhone Duo.

Another option to consider is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, which is slightly larger than the standard Z Fold 8. It features a 6.5-inch cover display and an 8-inch foldable display, along with improved camera hardware, including a 200MP main camera and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. The Z Fold 8 Ultra also comes with a larger battery and some of the best AI features available on an Android phone, although it is priced $100 higher than the iPhone Duo.

If you prefer a book-shaped foldable phone, the Motorola Razr Fold is worth considering. It offers similar pricing to the iPhone Duo and features a 6,000 mAh battery, 80W charging, 512GB of storage, and 16GB of RAM. The phone boasts a 6.6-inch cover display and an 8.1-inch foldable inner screen, along with a trio of 50MP cameras and a 32MP inner selfie camera. Optional stylus support and Motorola's AI features add to the appeal of this option.

The Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold is another Android foldable option that stands out for its AI support, which is among the best available on any Android device thanks to Google's ownership of the platform and Gemini AI. The device features a 6.5-inch cover display and an 8-inch main display, a 5x telephoto lens, 16GB of RAM, and 25W wireless charging. However, it lacks stylus support and does not offer as many innovative features as some of its competitors.
