Apple Unveils $1,999 iPhone Duo Foldable, Its Most Expensive Phone Ever
AAPL sits 42% above its 52-week low of $225.95 on light trading volume (0.1× avg).
Summary
Apple introduced the iPhone Duo, its first foldable, at $1,999 — more than double the inflation-adjusted price of the original iPhone. The device features a 7.6-inch inner folding display and A20 Pro chip, targeting a new ultra-premium tier. This launch follows strong Q3 results and recent price increases across Macs and iPads, reinforcing Apple's push toward higher average selling prices. The foldable entry is late relative to competitors, but the premium pricing could expand margins if demand materializes. Watch for initial pre-order and shipment data to gauge consumer appetite.
