Apple's $1,999 Duo Could Soon Beat Samsung at Its Own Game

Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman said the $1,999 foldable iPhone Duo will become the dominant foldable smartphone and make the form factor mainstream within ten years. The device unfolds to a 7.6-inch screen and folds to 5.4 inches, with preorders opening October 16 and shipments October 23. Apple is asking suppliers to build about 10 million units this year instead of 7-8 million.
