Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has revealed new details about Apple’s upcoming foldable iPhone, dubbed iPhone Duo 2. According to Gurman, the device will sport a larger display than its predecessor, a telephoto camera for improved zoom, and a more durable hinge. The foldable is expected to launch in late 2025 or early 2026, with Apple aiming to compete with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold series.
Display and Design
The iPhone Duo 2 is rumored to feature a 7.9-inch internal display when unfolded, up from the 7.6-inch screen of the original iPhone Duo. The external display will remain around 6.2 inches. Apple is reportedly using a new ultra-thin glass (UTG) layer to reduce the crease effect, a common complaint on foldable devices. The hinge will be made from a titanium alloy for added strength and longevity.
Camera System
For the first time on a foldable iPhone, Apple will include a telephoto lens, likely with 3x optical zoom. The main camera will be a 48-megapixel sensor, while the ultra-wide will remain at 12 megapixels. This upgrade is expected to make the Duo 2 a serious contender for photography enthusiasts who want a foldable form factor.
Performance and Software
The device will be powered by the A18 Bionic chip, built on a 3nm process, offering significant gains in AI and graphics performance. iOS 19 will include native split-screen multitasking and a new “Continuity Mode” for seamless app transitions between the internal and external displays. Apple is also working on a stylus (Apple Pencil Mini) for the foldable, though it may launch separately.
Pricing and Availability
Pricing is expected to start at $1,999, making it the most expensive iPhone ever. Gurman notes that Apple plans to produce only 5–7 million units in the first year due to supply constraints. The device will be available in select markets initially, with a global rollout later.
