#852As a recent Android foldable phone owner (Google Pixel), I'm excited that the Duo will get developers to actually design apps for foldables. Right now, some apps don't work at all and others are just stretched. I feel a better use of the screen space is around the corner for both Android foldable and Duo users.
> a better use of the screen space is around the corner
I see what you did there :)
Re: iPhone Duo
#853I'll give John Ternus credit: the demos are interesting and fun . Maybe not $2k fun + inherent risk with buying the first generation of an Apple product particularly after the Apple Vision Pro, but still.

For Apple foldables yes. Not Android.

My immediate thought seeing this design was how expensive this is going to be for companies to get their existing apps to look good on this thing.
Re: iPhone Duo
#856maybe this will finally solve the problem of every phone I use causing my old man eyes extreme eye strain. I hope they solved the issues with other foldable phones though. At these prices a single issue wouldn't be fun.

#857Never thought I'd say this but welcome to 3 years ago Apple hardware
Re: iPhone Duo
#858After watching some reviews of the Duo, I'm convinced that Steve Jobs would have never let the inner panel be matte while the outer panel was glossy. It's too inconsistent and inelegant.

#859While 4x3 is great (for 1998) and I do run server windows in 1280x1024, all the widescreen media is gonna look terribad.
Are we going back to 'modified to fit your screen' days?
Re: iPhone Duo
#860I would almost buy one of these even at such a ridiculous price if I could get it with all the AI features permanently disabled.
