I've been out of the loop on foldable phones, and this is question is not related to specifically the iPhone Duo. How does it work that it doesn't show a crease in the middle? What's the breakthrough technology there? Or is there a visible crease?

I'll watch Marques when I want to get caught up on stuff like this, because he usually has a minimal fluff video on the subject.

For foldable phones, this might be a good pick to get caught up (5 months old, but minimal crease): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFUB_jL_XcM

I am 75, and have a ton of computer gear. I can imagine myself as an old man later in life, not wanting to do any programming, and just wanting a single digital device like a future version of this product. Let’s see what Apple has available in 10 years.

I take it this is a joke? I am in my 50s and don’t see myself staring at screens for too long, let alone coding. Edit: I don’t know of anyone 75 still coding outside of retired professors here and there. I am not trying to be an ageist. I just don’t think I will be physically capable when I am 75.

It doesn't seem like a joke?

$2,000 for a phone? Holy price point, Batman. No thanks. I assume the people who would buy something like this have enough money not to care, and also would not care about the second part of my comment, because they want New Thing or use their phones enough for it to be useful. I guess it might be the case that the only way to make the folding screen thing even remotely work is a very, very expensive manufacturing pr…

$700 premium for Duo compared to iPhone Pro Max 18. Exactly the price of iPad mini 256GB.

I cannot believe that the central crease could disappear altogether! Suspiciously could not see reviews of it yet - usually bloggers like mkbhd get their hands on early, and they release the reviews moment the embargo is off, usually when live event is over. This time nothing.

That's not true, the journalists are hands on with it right now.

Here's a live stream of the popular obnoxious streamer, he held it a few minutes ago (also talked with MKBHD).
