Why the iPhone Duo Changes Everything

Apple might have finally killed the foldable screen crease for good. The brand-new iPhone Duo folds horizontally like a sleek passport. Unfolded, it is a jaw-dropping 5.2 millimeters thin, revealing a massive 7.6-inch display that feels like an iPad mini in your hands. Thanks to a clever nano-texture coating and an advanced titanium hinge, that annoying dip your thumb usually hits has practically vanished. You even get genuine iPad-style split-screen multitasking on an iPhone for the first time. But Apple’s wildest phone comes with serious compromises. Face ID is completely gone, replaced by Touch ID on the side button. There is no telephoto zoom lens. And the price tag starts at an eye-watering two thousand dollars. Is it ridiculously expensive? Absolutely. But for the first time, a folding phone actually feels ready for prime time.
