Samsung trolls Apple's first foldable iPhone with 'reheating leftovers' jab
Samsung mocked Apple's launch of its first foldable iPhone, the $1,999 iPhone Duo, with sarcastic social media posts on Wednesday, including "Let us know when you're done reheating our leftovers" and the hashtag #ItsTimeToSwitch. Samsung, which has released eight generations of foldables since 2019, highlighted its experience advantage. The Galaxy Z Fold8 is thinner and cheaper at Dh7,199 versus the Duo's Dh8,499, though Apple offers up to 2TB storage and Apple Pencil support. Samsung also launched a broader advertising campaign in major cities. Analysts estimate Apple could quickly capture about 25% of the foldable market, challenging Samsung's 38% share, though Samsung also supplies display technology that could benefit from Apple's success.
