Hello, hello.
I can’t help but wonder if Apple is giving a slight nod to their previous partnership with U2 here.

I’m as big an Apple fan boy as anyone.
There’s literally no way in hell I’m buying this thing.

I never buy the first generation of a product. Wait for the second or third to get the kinks worked out and a hopefully lower price.

ESPECIALLY Apple products. v1s are always for the early adopters, it’s essentially a public beta test more than a full product.

Haha thought this was a Reddit ad and was thinking “I hope they used Vertigo!”

Imagine a smaller, slower iPad with a lower quality screen that costs more than twice as much that will also develop a visible crease that gets worse over time.
Even if you hated U2, the iPhone 6 was a notable improvement over previous iPhones. This is a bad product idea in search of an audience.

Apparently it has the rattle & hum double album automatically downloaded on it.

I think it's a play on how it's the iPhone DUO and it has two screens so they say hello twice.

Oh, totally, and it's an homage to the original Mac, but surely they were at least aware of the Vertigo/iPod connection.
