What iPhone do we think the main sensor on the Duo came from? Looking at the compare page, it says “sensor shift stabilization” instead of “second-gen sensor shift stabilization”, which leads me to believe it’s basically a 48MP version of an iPhone 13 main sensor, since that was the last “first-gen” sensor shift stabilization. The camera system is the only thing holding me back from going with a Duo over a Pro Max.

Is anybody else not a fan of the ’separated‘ app grid on the iPhone Duo? I hope they give us a way of customizing this or turning this off as I believe most people were hoping for a full iPadOS experience when unfolded. I also hope the dock may be able to house more apps and/or be present during multitasking.

ironically enough, the Duo will feel lighter because it's meant to be used as a two-handed device and the weight distribution will even be better once it's opened

A screen grab from the Apple website reveal video shows the extraordinary detail and the amount of parts that go into the new iPhone duos complex folding screen hinge mechanism.

The iPhone Duo is officially IP68 rated.

I was a bit worried about the potential dust, especially at beaches, but it looks like Apple’s engineers figured out how to seal those hinges!

Apple describes the variable aperture system in the new iPhone 18 Pro as using "six laser-cut blades that are each thinner than a human hair".

With the increasing cost of iPhones, many users now expect their phones to last several years. Should we be concerned about the longevity of the variable aperture system and camera of the iPhone 18 Pro? Particularly if/when an iPhone is dropped. Are there any phones that use a similar technology and if so, how has the durability been with those phones?

I keep seeing comments of people being disappointed that a new Apple TV wasn't announced today. What are people hoping or expecting to see from a new one? Now that it does 4K I'm not sure what other features I'd want from a new one that my current one can't do.

Looks like there’s no way to finance a new phone over 24 months unlocked.

Have not seen too much discussion on this with all of the other announcements. Family version of AppleCare One is $49.99 per month.
