$1999 is ridiculous. Edit: Wow, I didn’t know Samsung foldable was priced similarly. It’s a lot of money to pay for something inherently fragile.
While I won't pay it, it seems pretty comparable to other flagship foldable from Google and Samsung.

#32Did anybody want this?
I'm the sort of person to absentmindedly flex a metal fork enough times it snaps, so it's definitely not for me.

#33They were very evasive on what the inner screen was made of. I'm going to assume its the same plastic all the other folding phones are made of.

#34Steve Jobs would roll in his grave due to lack of symmetry in this.

#35I'm interested to see what cases for this will look like.

#36This made history because Apple never copied Microsoft before. https://news.microsoft.com/surfaceduo/
They made a better version of a Microsoft product, this seems like par for the course.
Re: iPhone Duo
#37I still don't get the fanfare over folding phones. They tend to be more fragile, and if I really need a larger screen, I'd much rather use a laptop or tablet.
I no longer need an iPad Mini in my bag with this thing...

#38One thing I love about metric paper is the beauty of the simplicity: When you fold it, it maintains its ratio. This is because it is 1:1.41, aka 1:sqrt(2)
When I saw that this new phone is 1:1.4, I instantly appreciated why it is that way. Metric paper wins again!
Re: iPhone Duo
#39I was thinking it would be priced cheaper than an 18 pro and an ipad mini
Re: iPhone Duo
#40I suspect I would get greater value by simply duct-taping two iPhones together into a fold.
