The Verge and other outlets published early hands-on accounts of the iPhone Duo, generally praising the display and hinge while flagging size and price as sticking points.
“The iPhone Duo's dreamlike transition animation. This is a level of elegance Samsung will never be able to surpass. I'd even tell Samsung this: you might as well give up on the foldable market. You don't stand a chance anymore.”

El iPhone Duo, con un par de asteriscos, es una pasada. Este vídeo creo que ilustra bien por qué es el sueño de quienes viven viendo clips verticales y comiendo frente al móvil.

I don't know. I'm kind of ready for a screenless phone. I don't know what that is, but there was once a time I didn't know what a cordless phone was either.

Apple's first foldable iPhone is here, and Duo is clearly aimed above the regular lineup with a 7.6-inch inner OLED and $1,999 price tag. # tech # technology # apple # iphone # foldables # smartphones https:// techshowup.com/News/Article/01 a0885a-064f-7392-84d8-f1890fb1b7de/iphone-duo-tests-whether-foldables-can-become-apples-next-pr

As a dev who regularly works on apps for both platforms, I think one of the main causes for poor support for form factors beyond a standard smartphone on Android boils down to Google refusing to give developers fully fleshed out APIs to support said form factors.Instead, they just hand you some poorly documented loose parts in a box and tell you…

Everyone complaining about the price is absolute proof that no one pays attention to shit until Apple does it. I've seen hundreds of replies in countless threads just like this. Folding phones are 10 years old and have always been priced like this. This is nothing new if you paid attention to phone tech as a whole instead of just focusing on Apple…

The iPhone Duo’s dreamlike transition animation. This is a level of elegance Samsung will never be able to surpass. I’d even tell Samsung this: you might as well give up on the foldable market. You don’t stand a chance anymore.

Apple just unveiled its first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, at its fall event. It also announced an always-listening Apple Watch.

I don't think the vibe significantly shifted in a positive way. It seemed like it was going to with Ternus' opening statements, but then it was back to the same vibe. Hard to put into words, but kind of a droning boring safe microsoft-y vibe. Craig Federighi brought more energy for his segment but he sounded almost sarcastic at times. John Srouji…

Apple s hinge technology not Samsung. Plus Apple provides Samsung with their designs, they do not just buy whatever Samsung makes. This has been happening for ages, people don’t just have to continue to throw out something that is not true bc it makes their argument seem correct.

@johnternus @Apple If this video is accurate, Apple is doing an amazing job with the interface and animations as you open the iPhone Duo, mirroring the content perfectly, and lots of other UX experiences. Plus behind-screen selfie camera, plus Apple Pencil support. #AppleEvent

Apple introduced the iPhone Duo, its first foldable smartphone, during a keenly awaited event at the company's headquarters in Cupertino, California, on Wednesday. “This is a thoughtful design that only Apple can provide,” Apple's new chief executive John Ternus said on introducing the iPhone Duo. # Apple # News # Technology https://www…

I'd wait before believing no crease. My Z Fold 8 had basically no crease for the first week, after it has a slight crease that hasn't seemed to get any worse in the 3 weeks since. It's only noticeable in dark room with dramatic down lighting at certain angles, or when display is off, but it IS there. There has been some talk of Samsung actually…

I’ve never cracked any form of phone screen. Starting with the iPhone 3G when that was first released I’ve had 4 iPhones and 5 androids. I go to a lot of festivals so they don’t always get treated very carefully.

When Apple does something, it really does the Apple way. The software on the iPhone Duo is so amazing - status bar on the side with that new compact design, under-display inner screen camera, and the controls on the right. So thoughtful.

Apple unveiled the company's first foldable smartphone during a wide-ranging event Wednesday, betting that a new category can energize growth for its biggest-selling lineup. https://www. japantimes.co.jp/business/2026 /09/10/tech/apple-foldable-iphone-device-revamp/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon # business # tech # apple # iphone

I think the Duo looks great. And from the few hands on video I have seen I think the Apple presentation actually doesn't do it justice. There is no crease at all! [1]On the note on this year's keynote. I can't be the only one who feels the whole vibe of the keynote changed. This isn't Tim Cook style keynote and John Ternus wasted no time to try…

I mean, the Samsung is still expensive.... its about $300 cheaper in all tiers. But when you're spending $3k for a phone i dont think $300 is really make or break for you.

Ok iPhone Duo opening animation is sick. Controls line up vertically on the side, along with the Dock. Can run two apps side by side when open:

Apple has finally entered the foldable market with the iPhone Duo, its first folding iPhone. Here's how it compares against Samsung's latest book-style foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra. https:// appleinsider.com/articles/26/0 9/09/iphone-duo-vs-samsung-galaxy-z-fold8-ultra-foldabes-compared?utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon

There’s a standard for paper sizes called the ISO 216 international standard, aka A-series paper sizes. You may be familiar with it outside of the American 8.5”x11” letter size. The simplicity, for example, where an A3 sheet is exactly twice the area of A4. One A3 sheet folded in half becomes two A4 sheets. This is intentional: when you fold or…
