You can buy a new Duo 18 folding iPhone with max storage (2 TB, which is what I have in my iPhone 16 Pro Max) for the low-low price of just $3199. For that you get bigger display but a lesser camera on the back side (two lenses rather than three in the Pro series, lacking the 8x telephoto). You also get a second screen on the face of the phone when it is closed, but a form factor that is shorter and wider than a non-folding phone. So, what you might have with the Duo is an iPhone/iPad hybrid that’s not as good as either at what those older non-folding designs do best.
