Apple’s $1,999 iPhone Duo relies on Samsung Display for folding component

  • Apple unveiled iPhone Duo with Samsung Display reportedly supplying its folding component.
  • iPhone Duo starts at $1,999 following Apple’s years-long wait for foldable phones to mature.
  • Apple still sources major components globally, while the folding-related part is difficult to replace outside Korea.

Apple spent years waiting for foldable phones to mature before unveiling iPhone Duo on Wednesday at a starting price of $1,999. The company reportedly assigned Samsung Display sole responsibility for the component that enables the phone to fold, creating a concentrated supply-chain dependency. Apple continues to source major components worldwide, but the part most closely linked to its new form factor is among the most difficult to replace outside Korea.
