Apple’s iPhone Duo Bets Foldables Need Software, Not Just Screens
Bloomberg’s Chris Welch argues that Apple’s $1,999 iPhone Duo shows the advantage of entering foldables late: instead of merely adding a larger folding screen, Apple has reworked iOS around the device’s shorter, wider shape. In Welch’s early assessment, thumb-accessible controls, a matte 7.6-inch inner display and a barely noticeable crease make the Duo feel more coherent than earlier foldables, though its case rests on refinement rather than a single breakthrough.
