If you are wondering about the iPhone Duo price in India, launch date, colours, specifications and features, here is everything you need to know.

iPhone Duo Display and Design

The highlight of the iPhone Duo is its foldable design. When opened, it features a 7.6-inch Super Retina XDR OLED folding display with a nano-texture finish. When closed, users get a 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR outer display.

Both screens support ProMotion up to 120Hz, Always-On display, Dynamic Island and up to 3,000 nits outdoor brightness. The phone measures just 5.2mm thick when open and weighs 254 grams.

The iPhone Duo uses a titanium frame and hinge cover, Ceramic Shield 2 on the front and Ceramic Shield on the back. It also has an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance.

iPhone Duo Processor and Performance

The iPhone Duo is powered by Apple’s A20 Pro chip, featuring a 6-core CPU, 7-core GPU with Neural Accelerators and a dual 16-core Neural Engine.

Apple has also included a vapour chamber thermal system designed to maintain performance during demanding tasks such as gaming and AI workloads.

iPhone Duo Camera

The iPhone Duo features a 48MP Dual Fusion camera system with a 48MP Fusion Main and 48MP Fusion Ultra Wide camera.

It supports features including Smart Take, Duo Preview, Night mode, macro photography, Photographic Styles and up to 10x digital zoom. Video recording goes up to 4K Dolby Vision at 120fps.

The foldable design also allows users to use the outer display as a preview screen while taking photographs with the rear cameras.

iPhone Duo Battery

The iPhone Duo uses an iPhone-first dual-battery system. Apple rates it for up to 44 hours of video playback using the outer display and up to 31 hours using the inner display.

It supports fast wired charging, MagSafe wireless charging up to 25W and Qi2 wireless charging up to 25W.

Other iPhone Duo Features

The iPhone Duo runs iOS 27.1 and supports Apple Intelligence and Siri AI. It also supports Apple Pencil with USB-C, although Apple says Pencil support is coming later in 2026.

Unlike recent iPhones that use Face ID, the iPhone Duo uses Touch ID integrated into the side button. It is also eSIM-only, with no physical SIM card slot.
