iPhone Duo Fails JerryRigEverything's Dust and Bend Tests

macrumors.com —

Apple's iPhone Duo failed JerryRigEverything's durability test, with dust entering the hinge despite its IP68 rating and a bend test leaving a permanent green line on the inner display before it stopped responding. The outer screen scratched at level 7 on the Mohs scale, but the inner screen scratched at level 2, though its matte nano-texture coating made marks appear to vanish. Dust overwhelmed the magnets holding the phone shut. Host Zack Nelson noted most folding phones he has tested over seven years survive, but the iPhone Duo did not, marking a notable failure for Apple's first foldable.
