Open up to new possibilities with iPhone Duo

Pre-orders begin Friday, October 16

Beginning Friday, October 16, at 5 a.m. PT, customers can pre-order iPhone Duo on apple.com and in the Apple Store app.

iPhone Duo delivers Apple's largest iPhone display ever in a foldable design. Opened, it is the thinnest iPhone ever, with an inner display that is 50 percent larger than the display on iPhone 18 Pro Max - providing a large canvas for viewing content, gaming, and multitasking. Closed, the 5.4-inch outer display delivers 90 percent of the screen area of iPhone 18 Pro in a compact, pocketable design.¹ iPhone Duo is also built to last and features a precision-engineered hinge that offers a smooth, satisfying feel with every use. Powered by A20 Pro, iPhone Duo delivers pro performance along with a dual-battery architecture for impressive all-day battery life. iOS 27 is reimagined, remaining familiar and intuitive while adapting to the versatile ways users can interact with iPhone Duo.

Customers shopping in-store or online for iPhone Duo can connect with Apple Specialists for personalized support and get assistance with ways to save and pay, including financing options, as well as learn how to protect their products with AppleCare+ or AppleCare One. Customers can also take advantage of convenient home delivery or arrange for pickup at their local Apple Store at a time most suitable for them.

Ways to Save Directly with Apple

Upgrading to iPhone Duo is incredibly simple with a variety of flexible payment options. Customers can choose from great financing options - and since iPhone retains its value longer than other smartphones, they can maximize their savings through Apple Trade In.² Trading in a current device is a great way to save on iPhone Duo. With Apple Trade In, customers can receive an instant credit ranging from $175 to $885 when trading in an eligible iPhone 13 or higher.

Explore iPhone Duo

iPhone Duo features an advanced camera system that enables all-new experiences made possible by its breakthrough design. The 48MP Fusion Main camera shoots sharp photos with zero shutter lag, and users can get closer to the subject with an integrated optical-quality 2x Telephoto. The 48MP Fusion Ultra Wide camera captures wider fields of view and enables macro photography, while the Center Stage front camera can automatically take photos and videos in any orientation, so users don't have to rotate iPhone for landscape selfies. A new FaceTime camera placed underneath the inner display helps users connect with friends and family, whether iPhone Duo is held open or propped on a surface for hands-free calls.

The expansive display on iPhone Duo supercharges productivity with Split View multitasking and seamless app switching, and a reimagined yet familiar iOS experience introduces entirely new ways to interact with iPhone. iOS also adapts to content on iPhone Duo by reacting as it folds, reorienting when turned to the side, and switching to the appropriate display when flipped over. iPhone Duo can also enter StandBy on either the outer or inner display - even when it's not charging - turning the device into a photo frame, a hub for widgets, a clock, and more.

iPhone Duo is splash-, water-, and dust-resistant with an IP68 rating,³ and is available in two refined colors: star white and night sky.

Designed for iPhone Duo

To complement iPhone Duo, Apple is introducing beautiful new accessories. The iPhone Duo Folio - available in navy blue and taupe - features an integrated kickstand that supports a wide range of angles for reading, viewing content, or FaceTime, and folds away neatly when not in use. The iPhone Duo Case - available in sand and navy blue - is thin and light, with a protective two-part design that wraps around both sides of the device. Both cases are compatible with MagSafe, Qi2 25W, and Qi-certified chargers. With built-in magnets that align perfectly with iPhone Duo, they offer a magical attach experience and fast wireless charging.

Protection for Every Product

AppleCare plans protect a user's new iPhone Duo from accidents like drops and spills and, in many regions, theft and loss too - all at a great value.⁴ In available markets,⁵ customers can choose AppleCare+ or AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss for their new iPhone Duo. AppleCare One Individual, where offered, provides the same benefits as AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss, at the same monthly price - but extends coverage to two more devices. Learn more at apple.com/applecare or in Settings on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Try Apple One

New and qualified returning subscribers who purchase iPhone Duo can unlock three months of Apple One for free. Apple One bundles up to six Apple services - including Apple TV, Apple Music, up to 2TB of iCloud+ storage, and more - into one convenient plan across multiple Apple devices.‡
