iPhone Duo Hands-On: Paper-Like Matte Display Eliminates Glare

Apple unveiled its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, at its headquarters. Early hands-on impressions highlight a paper-like, matte main display with no reflections, though the device launches next month. The iPhone Duo features a nano-texture matte display that eliminates glare, a titanium frame with a custom hinge, and a thickness comparable to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8. It uses Touch ID on the side instead of Face ID, and its cover display has a unique rounded corner on one side. Priced from $2,000 (¥364,800 in Japan), the device offers color options like Star White and Night Sky. The reporter praised its optimized iOS 27 interface but noted the main display's crease is visible at certain angles.
