Meet the iPhone Duo: Apple's first foldable

Apple's first foldable phone is official. Instead of having a "fold"-related name, Apple opted to call it the iPhone Duo. The company claims it is its thinnest iPhone when unfolded, with a 7.6-inch inner display that is 50% larger than the iPhone 18 Pro Max and a 5.4-inch outer screen that has 90% of the iPhone 18 Pro's screen. Both screens have the same aspect ratio, so content scales proportionally to maintain visual continuity.

This foldable is built with grade 5 titanium and protected by Ceramic Shield on the back and Ceramic Shield 2 on the front, featuring "3x better" scratch resistance, and has a splash-, water-, and dust-resistant IP68 rating. The inner display has a scratch-resistant coating and a nano-texture finish that creates a seemingly flat matte surface that reduces crease visibility.
