Apple foldable iPhone Duo priced from $2,000

Apple is poised to unveil its first folding smartphone under the leadership of new CEO John Ternus, with Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman reporting that the device will be called the iPhone Duo. The midnight leak indicates the phone will launch in October, offering a 256 GB model priced at $2,000 and available in white and dark‑blue finishes. The iPhone Duo marks a shift from earlier speculation that referred to the product as the iPhone Ultra, and its naming echoes previous uses of “Duo” by Google for a messaging app and by Microsoft for a foldable device.

The forthcoming iPhone Duo is expected to be Apple’s entry into the foldable market, targeting premium consumers with a high‑end price point and limited storage configuration at launch. If the October shipping schedule holds, the device will join a growing segment of foldable smartphones while distinguishing itself through Apple’s design and ecosystem integration. The announcement will be the first major product reveal since Ternus assumed the CEO role, signaling a strategic expansion of Apple’s hardware portfolio.
