iPhone Duo lands with a crash, bang, wallop as screens reportedly crack mere days after release
The iPhone Duo has only been available to users since the 23rd October, and yet within just 3 days, users are reporting cracked screens. The post iPhone Duo lands with a crash, bang, wallop as screens reportedly crack mere days after release appeared first on Amateur Photographer .
The iPhone Duo, a new folding phone released by Apple, has faced criticism shortly after hitting the market. Users began reporting that the inner 7.6-inch screen cracked just three days post-launch, raising concerns about the device's durability and design. The 7.6-inch inner screen, a Samsung manufacturing, appears to be failing at the same point across all reported cases, suggesting a possible manufacturing flaw in the complex hinge design.
YouTube tech reviewer JerryRigEverything questioned the effectiveness of the iPhone Duo's IP68 water and dust resistance rating, as dust and sand found their way into the inner folding mechanism despite the device's resistance claims. Many have dubbed this manufacturing issue "crackgate," highlighting the potential disappointment surrounding the new model.
Apple has acknowledged the issue, promising to replace or repair affected phones. They urged users to contact AppleCare if they experience any display problems with their iPhone Duo.
