Apple sells out iPhone Duo launch stock as demand outstrips supply

taipeitimes.com —

Apple Inc sold out of its limited in-store inventory for the new iPhone Duo on Friday, highlighting strong demand for its first foldable device starting at nearly US$2,000. The launch drew overnight lines from New York to Singapore, with stores receiving 50 to over 200 units each that quickly vanished. New online orders face delivery delays until late January, among the longest for a modern Apple product. The Duo, priced up to US$3,199, marks Apple's biggest design change in nearly two decades, though competitors like Samsung already offer foldables. Production is limited to facilities in China due to complex hinge and display technology.
