Apple's $1,999 foldable iPhone Duo wins strong early reviews as preorders sell out into 2027

Apple's first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, is drawing strong early reviews, with several technology publications ranking it among the best foldable smartphones yet. Reviewers praised its engineering, durable build and barely visible display crease. The device opens from a 5.4-inch outer display into a 7.6-inch inner screen, which Apple says is 50% larger than the iPhone 18 Pro Max screen. It starts at $1,999. Reviews were not all glowing. The Verge cited first-generation compromises, including uneven third-party app optimisation. The Duo also lacks Face ID and a dedicated telephoto camera. Demand looks strong. Preorder delivery estimates have slipped into late 2026 and early 2027.
