Apple Bets on Premium Foldable iPhone with Duo at $1,999

Apple unveiled its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, at a product event led by new CEO John Ternus. The 7.6-inch device opens to a tablet-like experience and starts at $1,999 (up to $3,199 for 2TB). Availability is set for October 23. Analysts see the Duo as a premium growth opportunity in a mature smartphone market, leveraging Apple’s ecosystem, but note risks: a relatively small foldables market (likely a few million units globally) and whether consumers will pay a premium given competing offerings from rivals, meaning the near-term revenue impact may be limited even if it helps re-ignite upgrade cycles.
