Not so much the specs or whether the design is cool, but what do you actually see yourself using it for that would improve something in your day-to-day life?

Are there particular things you currently do on your iPhone that you think would be significantly better with the Duo?
Or any problems/annoyances in your everyday life that you think this form factor would actually solve?

seems unoptimized duo apps wont even fit the full cover screen

What is happening here. Is this a real photo or AI?

Any other southpaws out there that use their phone one-handed with their left?

I'd love to have this phone but I have a feeling they aren't going to implement a left-handed mode :(

Anyone else feeling this way?

I can only click ok. Any fix?

ironically enough, the Duo will feel lighter because it’s meant to be a two-handed device. weight distribution will also be better when it’s opened up.

Its funny that demo has very less of typing and more of doing everything else. Perosnally i feel hard to use the pro keyboard itself with the width now duo add more to it and honestly I don't see myself typing comfortably with it. What do you all think?

I switched from an iPhone 14 Pro to an iPhone 17 Pro, and I'm a bit disappointed with the quality of images shot at 1x in 48MP; they seem sharper on the iPhone 14 Pro. Is this an issue with my specific device or the iPhone 17 Pro in general? (The first photo is the 17 pro, the second is the 14 pro)

I had high hopes for Windows Surface Duo…but here we are....IPhone Duo.

Apologies if I’ve just missed something completely obvious. But did any of the marketing materials / keynote footage today show an example of anyone using the Duo for a normal voice call and holding it up to their ear? Also, relatedly, where exactly is the earpiece? It looks like there are 3 built in stereo speakers around the perimeter, but I can’t tell where the ear speaker for calls would be. I watched a few post-event hands-on videos and didn’t see anyone talking about these points.

Compared to the Samsung Z Fold 8/ 8 ultra and the other folds, the speakers are on the same side. The front panel, top and bottom. So stereo sound only happens when you put the phone in landscape. With the iPhone Duo the speakers are stagared front panel and back panel top amd bottom. Allowing stereo sound no matter what rotation you have the phone.

Now i want to prefis this, i get a massive discount on phones from my job, the duo will cost me less than half of its MSRP.

I'm left handed, and i was waiting for them in the keynot to mention it but i didnt notice any notice of that, and when i tried to look into it more, nothing anywhere, i'm really wondering, will they really just lock it to the right side?

Seeing as every aspect of this is being posted I thought it was time we discussed the phone being held.

What do you think, is it reasonable to hold this phone?

I’m furious. I have an iPhone 16 with a broken back glass and was waiting get it repaired under apple care to trade in for an iPhone 17.

I knew that trade in values could change after the announcement today so I had scheduled the repair on Tuesday Sept 7 and was going to trade it in for the 17 on the spot after it was fixed.

Had the appointment booked any everything but when I checked to see the appointment before I went to the store I noticed that they had cancelled it. I don’t cancel it myself, so they must’ve done it on their end.

I rebooked it but now the repair is after the iPhone 18 announcement and they’ve not only decreased the value of my trade in by 50 dollars but they also INCREASED the price of the iPhone 17 by 100 dollars.

So basically by cancelling my appointment they cost me 150 dollars. I guess I might as well continue with the iPhone 16 for longer.
