Early iPhone Duo buyers report broken displays after fewer than 20 folds

Apple's first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, launched Friday, with early buyers reporting broken displays, some after fewer than 20 folds. A Melbourne buyer's device cracked at the hinge after six hours and about 20 opens, with no drop or damage. Apple exchanged the 2,000-franc phone, and similar breakages were reported in Dallas and China, with cracks appearing along the fold. The cause is unknown, though a soft display layer over the hinge drew attention pre-launch. Apple hasn't commented, and out-of-warranty inner display repairs cost 999 francs, though affected devices were replaced.
