Apple has begun shipping the iPhone Duo, its first foldable handset, which started reaching buyers on Friday, according to GSMArena.
The company has cautioned that in-store availability will be limited and that online orders are subject to extended waiting times. Apple is increasing production, though adding more units is expected to take time.
Pricing starts at $2,000 for the 256GB base configuration and rises to $3,200 for the 2TB version. By comparison, GSMArena noted that the base iPhone 18 Pro Max at 256GB costs $700 less than the entry foldable, while the smaller iPhone 18 Pro is priced a further $100 below that.
