Apple iPhone Duo review: Two screens, two experiences, two thousand dollars
I respect Apple's first crack at a foldable phone, but I'm not sure I like it.
The allure of foldable phones has grown as manufacturers continue to increase screen sizes while maintaining devices that are portable enough for pocket usage. However, each foldable Android phone encountered in public has displayed a conspicuous seam between the two screen sections, frequently exhibiting what appears to be delamination from the base surface, resulting in an unattractive, bubbly display.
When Android phones first began to offer larger and larger screens, with the iPhone remaining at a modest four inches, the author harbored envy. Yet, they had never witnessed someone using a bulky, fragile-looking foldable phone in public and yearned for Apple's approach to the concept. Nonetheless, that perspective has manifested in the form of the iPhone Duo.
Priced at $1,999 and above, the iPhone Duo represents the most significant modification to the iPhone in recent years. It incorporates hardware and software upgrades that fundamentally alter the manner in which users interact with the device.
