The iPhone Duo finally makes its way into customers' hands

Apple's iPhone Duo is now available to customers as the company's debut foldable device launches globally. Preorders opened on October 16, just two days before the October 23 official release date. The staggered rollout saw initial deliveries kick off in Australia and New Zealand, followed by Asia, Europe, and finally North America.

Apple's retail stores set their clocks to 8:00 AM local time to accommodate eager launch-day shoppers. The first to receive their devices have taken to social media to share their excitement, posting photos and initial impressions of the sleek new smartphones. In the United States, customers can expect their preorders to start arriving on Friday morning as delivery services get underway.

Apple Stores will also be offering a limited number of iPhone Duos for customers to pick up in-store or purchase on the spot.
