Foldable iPhone Duo Will Start at $2

Following some recent speculation that Apple could release its foldable phone under the "iPhone Duo" name, it appears that will indeed be the case, according to Bloomberg ‘s Mark Gurman. For months now, the foldable iPhone has generally been referred to as the " iPhone Ultra," even internally, but Apple is apparently going in a different direction for the official name, emphasizing the dual-screen nature of the device. Gurman says the iPhone Duo will start at $2,000 for 256 GB of storage and max out at around $3,000.

Rumors had suggested the phone would likely start at above $2,000, perhaps as high as $2,500, so a $2,000 entry-level price could help bolster customer demand. The entry-level version will include 256 gigabytes of storage, with Apple offering higher-capacity versions that will take the price all the way up to roughly $3,000. Apple blew through its cost goals due to the recent memory shortage, so it’s eating some of the expense to keep within reach of $2,000.

It’s also passing the costs along to consumers who buy higher capacities. As for availability, the device will reportedly come in white and dark blue and "go on sale as early as October." Rumors have long suggested the foldable iPhone could launch later than the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max due to production difficulties, although Gurman previously stressed that the gap in launch timing would be minimal. Other iPhone Duo details in Gurman’s report include the use of a new A20 Pro chip, Apple’s C2 modem, dual 48-megapixel rear cameras, a 12-megapixel front camera, a magnetic hinge system and "support for the Apple Pencil stylus." Gurman said last week that Apple had tested a smaller version of the Apple Pencil for use with the foldable iPhone, but said that a launch was unlikely.

Apple is officially set to unveil its first foldable iPhone in a few hours. On the eve of the event, Mark Gurman at Bloomberg has reported some last-minute details, including a spoiler for the foldable iPhone’s actual name: iPhone Duo.
