Apple may have just sold 6 million iPhone Duos

Preorders for Apple's first foldable sold out in minutes, pushing U.S. delivery dates to January 2027. Omdia and Counterpoint estimate over 6 million iPhone Duo shipments by the end of 2026 — roughly a third of the global foldable market.

• iPhone Duo preorders sold out in minutes, with U.S. shipping slipping to January 2027
• Omdia and Counterpoint expect over 6 million iPhone Duo shipments by end of 2026
• 18.2 million foldables shipped in 2025, just 1.5% of the global smartphone market
• 6 million Duos would be only about 2% of the projected 257 million iPhones this year
