Apple Launches New Foldable Phone Priced at $1,999 with AppleCare Fees Set

Apple has launched its new foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, priced at $1,999. The device enters the market amid discussions about foldable screen technology and hardware design. The new vice president of hardware engineering at Apple spoke about the product, noting that a lot of hard work went into building it and asking users to hold the company accountable for how long the hinge lasts. At the same time, details about the phone's support plans have come out. AppleCare fees for the iPhone Duo are now listed, though exact repair costs for the folding screen itself are still missing from the public details. Reports point out that even with the new design work, the device might still face the common screen crease issue that other folding phones deal with. Zeera Wireless and other tech sources have also noted that the annual plan for the device could cost around $299.
