iPhone Duo Launch Begins as First Orders Reach Customers
iPhone Duo pre-orders are now being delivered in Australia and New Zealand, with early customer impressions emerging online. This marks Apple's first foldable device, featuring a 5.4-inch outer screen and a 7.6-inch inner display, starting at $1,999. Select retail stores globally will have limited stock for walk-in purchases on launch day, but demand is expected to be exceptionally high. Stores in the United States, Australia, Canada, and several European countries will offer walk-in availability. However, customers in France, China, and other Asian markets will require a reservation for in-store pickup. Shipping estimates for online orders have already been pushed to January 25. Securing an iPhone Duo this year will likely depend on launch day purchases or later pickup reservations. Some carriers and retailers might also have launch day stock. Deliveries will then roll out across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and North America, with some Apple Stores opening early to accommodate demand.
