Apple has a track record of waiting until the kinks get worked out before it tries its own hand at new devices, but hands-on videos of the iPhone Duo are already starting to show that Apple suffers from some of the same pain points other manufacturers like Samsung do, like the beloved screen crease.

At Apple’s “surprise and shine” event, the company’s first foldable iPhone is undoubtedly the most anticipated device on the agenda. After years of rumors, it’s finally here, and as expected it’s called the iPhone Duo. 

At 10 a.m. Pacific on September 9, 2026, Apple walked onto its own stage at Apple Park and did something it had resisted for years.

Apple on Wednesday unveiled its new iPhone 18and its first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo. But amid all the attention on Apple’s newest and most expensive devices, there’s another change: Apple is raising the price of its existing iPhone models by $100.

Apple did the thing. The first foldable iPhone has arrived with the new iPhone Duo delivering a pretty compelling package for interested foldable customers who don’t want to give up on iOS. It also addresses a durability gap that few others have managed with IP68 protection but, like Pixel 11 Pro Fold, that’s only a…

After years of watching its rivals launch foldable phones, Apple has finally entered the arena with the unveiling of the iPhone Duo during its “Surprise and Shine” event, currently underway. Details are still trickling in, but the passport-style design makes it an immediate contender for one of the best foldable phones around.

Apple on Wednesday unveiled its first foldable phone, called the iPhone Duo, a device that opens like a book into a wide screen. The announcement marks the biggest change to the iPhone since it was introduced in 2007, and an entry into a category that Samsung has dominated for years.
