THUR SEPT 10 2026-theGBJournal| Apple Wednesday unveiled its new iPhone Duo, the first foldable iPhone, as CEO John Ternus made his big debut.
Apple equally showcased its new iPhone 18 Pro, Airpod 5 and Apple Watch series 12.
The Duo is billed as the thinnest iPhone ever, it comes with a 7.6-inch inner display that provides a large canvas for viewing content, gaming, and multitasking, and a special nano-texture finish that minimizes glare for an unparalleled viewing experience.
Closed, the 5.4-inch outer display delivers 90 percent of the screen area of iPhone 18 Pro in a compact, pocketable design.
A new FaceTime camera beneath the inner display connects users to friends and family, whether iPhone Duo is fully open or propped up hands-free.
Dual Capture in FaceTime shares front and rear camera feeds simultaneously, and Duo FaceTime lets someone join the conversation using the outer display and camera.
Powered by the new A20 Pro, iPhone Duo features an advanced thermal management system with a custom-designed vapor chamber and a dual-battery architecture, delivering pro performance and impressive all-day battery life.
The advanced camera system takes stunning photos and videos, with the folding design unlocking fun new ways to use the camera that aren’t possible on any other iPhone.
iOS 27 is reimagined, remaining familiar and intuitive while adapting to the versatile ways users can interact with iPhone Duo. And with Apple Intelligence2 and Siri AI,3 iPhone Duo brings powerful AI capabilities together with a user’s personal context.
iPhone Duo is available in two refined colors: star white and night sky. Pre-orders begin Friday, October 16, with availability beginning Friday, October 23.
CEO Ternus describes the Duo as the most transformational change to iPhone since the original.
”With an entirely new design and intuitive experiences, it shows what’s possible when hardware and software are engineered together and redefines what it means to use a foldable phone.
With the largest display ever on iPhone that still fits easily in your pocket, combined with the power of A20 Pro, iPhone Duo helps you stay more immersed and productive wherever you go, whether you’re enjoying content, multitasking across apps, or gaming,” Ternus adds.
The Duo’s starting price is $1,999.
