Apple unveils Duo, its first foldable phone shaped like a passport

Apple unveiled Duo, a passport-shaped foldable phone, marking its biggest flagship redesign in years at an event led by new CEO John Ternus. The device opens into a wide, thin screen and represents a major shift for the company's core product. The iPhone generates over half of Apple's sales, totaling $209.6 billion last fiscal year. Ternus emphasized on-device AI for privacy, while executives also introduced the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, priced from $1,199 and $1,299, plus new AirPods and health-focused watches. Analysts expect Duo to cost over $2,000, a new high for Apple, though they predict strong demand despite competition from Samsung and Huawei. The event may also alter Apple's product schedule, delaying cheaper iPhone updates until spring.
