So far, the rumored foldable has been mostly referred to as the iPhone Ultra, while the Duo name would raise a title that Google used for one of its many ill-fated attempts at messaging and chat, and that Microsoft already applied to its own foldable devices, with the Surface Duo and Surface Duo 2.
Meanwhile, its starting price could make it more expensive than the cheapest versions of Google’s Pixel 11 Pro Fold and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, which start at $1,899, but lower than the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra’s $2,099.99 price.
As the rumors have said, it’s expected to be able to run side-by-side iPhone apps, handle iPad-like multitasking, and support using the Apple Pencil as a stylus. We should know the official details soon — check back here at 1PM ET / 10AM PT for all of the updates as they’re revealed.
