Ahead of an October launch, Apple is preparing a major hardware expansion with the foldable iPhone Duo. The strategy arrives as Apple's new chief executive places a high-stakes bet on the foldable category to reignite smartphone growth, aiming to propel the company alongside Nvidia into the $5 trillion valuation club.
Financial commentary from Yahoo Finance hinges heavily on whether consumer demand can withstand the device's steep $1,999 price tag. Beyond the target price, however, available details are thin.
Published materials do not reveal the identity of Apple's new leader, nor do they provide technical specifications for the handset. The exact day chosen for the October debut likewise remains unconfirmed.
