@msfbeast007 Exactly. The biggest advantage is that Duo doesnβt ask iPhone users to leave the Apple ecosystem to get a foldable. Add the novelty and status factor, and demand could be much stronger than people expect. Supply might genuinely be the bigger problem.
@deebayleaf I get the single-hand argument, but calling Duo useless is a stretch. Some people value the extra screen for work, multitasking, and media more than one-handed comfort. It really comes down to how you use your phone.
@Sn0wbrave Samsung has the experience, but Appleβs first attempt looks incredibly polished. Iβd still pick the iPhone Duo the design feels cleaner and more refined. π±π₯
@gabsdv I get the point, but I think Duo is more about adapting Liquid Glass to a new form factor. The side UI still keeps controls closer to the content without blocking it just in a way that makes sense for a foldable.
@4k_isn Exactly. The Duo could push developers to rethink how apps are designed for foldables. If Apple nails the experience, other manufacturers will definitely follow the wider-fold approach.
@MajinBuofficia Yeah, that slight gap is disappointing, but itβs also the trade-off with current foldable designs. Hopefully Apple can refine the hinge and get it truly flat in the next generation.
@VadimYuryev Feels more like Apple is moving beyond the Dynamic Island rather than killing the idea altogether. The Duo is probably just the first step π
@theapplecycle Fair point, but if Apple had to choose between keeping Face ID and making the foldable thinner, Iβd take the thinner design. Hopefully they bring it back in the next generation.
