Apple Enters Foldable Market with $2,000 iPhone Duo

Apple Unveils First Foldable Smartphone

Apple has officially entered the foldable smartphone market with the iPhone Duo, the company's first bendable device. The announcement comes at the first major iPhone launch event since John Ternus assumed the role of CEO, signaling a new chapter for the tech giant.

Pricing and Availability

The iPhone Duo will carry a starting price of $2,000 for the 256GB storage configuration. Apple plans to begin shipping the device as soon as October, with consumers able to choose between two color options: white and dark blue.

Market Position

The Duo name marks a departure from earlier speculation that had widely referred to the device as the "iPhone Ultra." The naming aligns with Google's past branding efforts, while Microsoft has also used the "Duo" name for its own foldable devices. Apple's entry into this category positions it against established competitors in the foldable smartphone market.
