Abstract:
With Apple’s first foldable screen phone iPhone Duo only a few days away from its official release, the first unboxing video has appeared on the Internet. The video publisher seemed to have obtained the retail version of the device in advance and showed off the product packaging and appearance of the real device, which attracted widespread attention from the outside world.
According to the exposure content, iPhone Duo is packaged in a flat state instead of folded. Apart from this difference, its overall packaging style is basically consistent with the existing iPhone product line, continuing Apple's consistent design language.
Prior to this, the public has learned some preliminary impressions of iPhone Duo through media experience activities, but this information mainly comes from invited media and reviewers. The unboxing video leaked this time became the first actual hands-on display from outside the media system, providing consumers with a more intuitive reference.
The industry expects that the complete review content of iPhone Duo will be officially released as soon as the next day. According to the plan announced by Apple, the machine will be officially launched on October 23. However, due to market demand far exceeding expectations, the estimated delivery time for new machines currently ordered through Apple’s online store has been postponed to January 25, 2027.

Regarding offline purchases, Apple has not yet clearly confirmed whether stores will provide on-site no-appointment purchase services on October 23. Apple's official website currently prompts users to recheck store inventory information on October 24. At the same time, multiple Apple retail employees have reportedly been told to remind customers that stores may not have enough inventory for on-site purchase on the day of the launch.
At the same time, Apple’s website pages in markets such as Japan, South Korea and the United Arab Emirates have made it clear that the iPhone Duo will only be available for purchase to customers who have made an appointment in advance to pick up the goods in the early stages of its launch. This further reflects Apple's cautious attitude towards the scale of demand and inventory pressure for this product.
As Apple’s first foldable screen iPhone that took many years to develop, iPhone Duo has continued to attract market attention since its release. As the official release date approaches, more reviews, experience content, and actual user feedback are expected to be released in the coming days.
