Apple announced its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, in September and opened preorders on Friday. The device sold out within minutes, prompting immediate changes to delivery estimates.
Initial delivery dates slipped to late November and early December, but have since stabilized at late January for all models. The rapid sell‑out underscores strong consumer demand for the new form factor, and the dates are no longer worsening. This represents a pause in the previously rapid date erosion.
Customers who missed the first wave can expect shipments in early 2027, as the late‑January delivery window now applies to all configurations.
