Foldable

Photos shared online appear to show cracks along the iPhone Duo’s inner display crease, but the reports are unverified and do not yet establish a widespread hardware defect.

Apple says iPhone Duo apps carrying a “Made for iPhone Duo” badge can use the foldable’s larger inner display, instant app transitions, and side-by-side multitasking.

A Bloomberg report says Apple is testing a second-generation iPhone Duo prototype that could add an under-display Face ID system and an Action Button, addressing biometric-unlocking friction reported on the first foldable.

Apple’s foldable iPhone Duo is expected to gain Apple Pencil USB-C support through iOS 27.2, reportedly scheduled for October 26. Apple Pencil Pro and the first-generation Apple Pencil will not work with the device.

Apple’s first foldable pairs a 7.6-inch inner display with iOS 27 continuity features, but its 254-gram weight, missing telephoto camera, and premium European pricing set clear trade-offs.

A leak points to a possible Galaxy Z Slide for 2027, suggesting Samsung may be considering a phone whose flexible display expands from its chassis rather than opening on a hinge.

Pre-release iPhone Duo footage highlights a hinge that appears easy to open one-handed, while Clash Royale offers an early example of an app that does not yet fully use the inner display.

A 3C certification entry points to a smaller Huawei MateBook Fold variant with 66W charging, though its design, specifications, price, and availability have not been confirmed.

A Geekbench listing points to Motorola’s wider-format foldable arriving with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, Android 17, and 12GB of RAM. Reported hardware also includes a 6.92-inch 165Hz inner OLED display and a 5,000mAh battery, though U.S. availability remains unconfirmed.

A new leak points to a late-November introduction for Huawei’s next book-style foldable, with a larger internal screen, a battery exceeding 6,000 mAh, and 100W wired charging among the claimed upgrades.
