Apple’s Foldable iPhone Could Be Called iPhone Duo | Tech News

0:00It's September 9th. This is Tech News Today Technology Coverage, powered by AI. Word on the street is Apple might be bringing back a name we've heard before for their first foldable iPhone. Sources are whispering that it could be called the iPhone Duo, a name Microsoft used for their dual screen devices. This is a bit of a curveball, considering Google also used Duo for a messaging app. This potential iPhone Duo is rumored to hit the market with a starting price of $2000 for a 256GB model. If these whispers are true, we could see a rolling out as early as October, available in white and dark blue. The starting price puts it in a competitive bracket, potentially more than some versions of the Google Pixel Fold and Samsung Galaxy Z Fold, but less than the absolute top tier Samsung models. It's definitely aiming for the premium end of the market. We're expecting this device to offer some serious multitasking capabilities, allowing apps to run side by side, much like you'd see on an iPad.

All these details are still in the rumor mill, of course. We'll have to wait for the official announcement to get the full picture on what Apple has cooked up for their foldable debut.
