Apple iPhone Duo pre-orders open today – but stock could be limited

As you’ve surely heard by now, Apple has joined the foldable phone market with the all-new iPhone Duo. And it’s officially launching today for pre-orders.

That said, Apple has been anything but quiet lately. With the Apple iPhone 18 Pro, AirPods 5 and Apple Watch ultra 4 all having launched in the last month, the tech giant has certainly not been slouching of late... but the first-ever folding iPhone might just trump the lot.

“This is a phone shaped and sized roughly like a passport with a 5.4-inch display when closed and a 7.6-inch screen when you open it out. That’s almost as big as the original iPad mini, with a similarly shaped display. Apple has introduced special software to make the move from inner to outer screen look especially slick, and has built hardware to reduce the dreaded crease between the two halves of the inner screen to almost nothing.”.

He adds, “There are two cameras on the Duo, unlike the three-camera Pro models. Despite that, this is the priciest iPhone ever, starting at £1,999, which is at the higher end of what other brands charge for their foldables. The tech required for a multi-screen phone that folds in half always adds cost, and sometimes time.”.

How much is each iPhone Duo?

• iPhone Duo 256GB: £1,999
• iPhone Duo 512GB: £2,199
• iPhone Duo 1TB: £2,599
• iPhone Duo 2TB: £3,199

Now, onto the more important subject of making sure you can get your hands on an iPhone Duo. According to our intel, not only is the stock particularly limited given some minor production hiccups, but your best bet is to pre-order the handset ahead of its release on Friday 23 October.
