<p><strong><span class="pagebody-location">CUPERTINO &#8212;</span></strong> New Apple CEO John Ternus introduced <a href="https://www.apple.com/iphone-duo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone Duo</a>, the first foldable iPhone, at an event in Apple Park headquarters.</p>
<p>When opened, the Duo is the thinnest iPhone ever, 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.</p>
<p>Both displays share the same aspect ratio, so content scales proportionally, ensuring visual continuity. iPhone Duo is built to last with an innovative hardware design and a precision hinge that offers a smooth, satisfying feel with every use. 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.</p>
<p>iPhone Duo is available in two colors: star white and night sky, with prices starting at $1,999 with 256GB of memory and up to $3,199 for a Duo with 2TB of memory. Pre-orders begin Friday, October 16, with availability beginning Friday, October 23.</p>
<p>“iPhone Duo is 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,” said John Ternus, Apple’s CEO. “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.”</p>
<p>N1, an Apple-designed wireless networking chip, enables Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread, while C2, Apple’s next-generation cellular modem system, brings AI-powered improvements to cellular quality and reliability, and now supports mmWave in the U.S.</p>
<p>Apple also introduced new iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max models but did not reveal a new regular iPhone 18 at the event.</p>
