iPhone Duo Fails JerryRigEverything's Dusty Durability Test
Apple's iPhone Duo has failed JerryRigEverything's latest durability test. Despite its IP68 dust-resistance rating, dust entered the hinge through several ingress points, overwhelming the magnets that hold the phone shut. The bend test then left a permanent green line across the inner display, before the screen became unresponsive.
The outer screen with Ceramic Shield 2 scratched at level 7 on the Mohs scale, but the inner screen only managed level 2, although credit was given for its matte nano-texture coating making marks "magically disappear." Alas, it wasn't enough to earn a pass. "I've been testing these folding phones since the first generation seven years ago – most do survive," said Nelson. "The iPhone Duo did not."

Skip the Touch ID Scan: Unlock iPhone Duo With Apple Watch
iPhone Duo uses a Touch ID sensor built into the side button for authentication. Some may feel this is a step backwards after almost a decade of Face ID on iPhones, but if you wear an Apple Watch, you can use it to unlock your iPhone Duo instead. This way, you don't need to touch the side button at all. It's the closest thing we have to a seamless Face ID experience on iPhone Duo (at least for now).
The feature is called Unlock with Apple Watch. It's not new to iPhone, but it works reliably. Note that your Apple Watch needs to be a Series 9 or later, an Ultra 2 or later, or an SE 3. Here's how to turn on the feature and start using it.
Turn On Unlock With Apple Watch
Open the Settings app on your iPhone Duo.
Tap Touch ID & Passcode, then enter your passcode.
Scroll down to "Unlock with Nearby Devices."
Toggle on the switch next to your Apple Watch. If you have more than one watch paired with your iPhone Duo, toggle it on for each one.

Verizon Apologizes for iPhone Duo Pre-Order Delays, Giving Customers $100 Gift Card
Verizon has apologized to customers who pre-ordered the iPhone Duo through the carrier but have since been informed that their delivery is delayed.
In an email sent to affected customers, Verizon said an "unexpected shipping delay" means that iPhone Duo deliveries to some customers will "take a little longer." To make up for the inconvenience, Verizon is offering affected customers a $100 Verizon gift card that can be used online or in-store toward bill payments or merchandise.
"We owe you an apology," said Verizon. "We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to make this right," the company added.
Verizon said customers will receive an email about the $100 gift card next week, and it assured that it is working to fulfill orders as soon as it can.
"Your order is secure, your place in line hasn't changed, and our team is actively tracking your shipment to get it to you as quickly as possible," said Verizon.

Cybersecurity Awareness Week: How to remove your personal data from the internet, and why Apple’s tools alone aren’t enough
It actually seems like an episode of Black Mirror that it’s legal for a company to buy and sell our personal data without our consent, but that’s the reality in the US. Apple has built some really useful tools to limit future tracking, including App Tracking Transparency, Hide My Email, and iCloud Private Relay, but this doesn’t solve your actual problem, though. What they can’t do is remove the data that has already been collected, bought, and spread across hundreds of broker databases over the past decade.

Make iPhone Duo Volume Buttons Follow Screen Rotation
Because of the iPhone Duo's foldable design, you tend to switch the orientation of the device more often than you would a regular iPhone. This makes the volume buttons shift positions a lot relative to your fingers, which can cause you to press volume up when you meant to press down, or vice versa.
To prevent this, the iPhone Duo has an option in Settings which can dynamically remap the buttons as you rotate the device, so that the button on the top or right always turns the volume up, while the one on the bottom or left always turns it down.
The system setting works by disabling the mechanism that keeps the volume controls in a fixed position whichever way you hold the phone. The following steps show you how it's done.
Open the Settings app.
Tap Sounds & Haptics.
Turn off Fixed Position Volume Controls.
With the switch off, the volume buttons automatically adjust as you rotate your iPhone Duo, so volume up is always the button on the top or right, whichever way you're holding it. Turn t

iPhone Duo Teardowns Reveal Two Batteries and More
The first iPhone Duo teardown videos have been shared by YouTube channels Phone Repair Guru and REWA Technology, providing us with a look inside the device.
iPhone Duo has two battery cells that can be removed with electrically-activated adhesive. There is a larger battery with a 2,962 mAh (11.56 Wh) capacity and a smaller one that is rated at 1,921 mAh (7.5 Wh). Total battery capacity is 4,883 mAh.
Phone Repair Guru revealed that the iPhone Duo's Touch ID button can technically be removed for repairs, but they said it is a difficult process.
REWA Technology's video includes a labeled breakdown of the logic board, which contains Apple's A20 Pro chip, C2 cellular modem, and more.
iPhone Duo is an eSIM-only device worldwide.
The repair website iFixit will likely publish a more comprehensive iPhone Duo teardown with detailed analysis in the coming days, so stay tuned for that.

YouTubers break the iPhone Duo, but stores aren't seeing broken displays
A YouTuber has demonstrated the resilience of the iPhone Duo display, which seems to explain why there are so few reports of broken units just after launch.A bend 'test' of the iPhone Duo - Image Credit: JerryRigEverything/YouTubeThere are some inevitabilities that happen after the launch of a new Apple product. We have seen the initial reviewers' opinions, as well as a close examination of mechanisms, but now we have turned to the destruction phase of the iPhone Duo release.Released early on Saturday, the video by JerryRigEverything looks at the iPhone Duo and then destroys it in various ways within a few minutes. However, unlike others that sensationalize the destruction for clicks, the channel instead takes a fairly structured and measured approach. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Apple Store Pickup System for iPhone Duo Just Went Live Again in U.S.
The option to reserve an iPhone Duo for Apple Store pickup resumed in the U.S. around 8:10 a.m. Eastern Time today, but our spot check has revealed little to no availability for all configurations right now, so keep checking back.
Apple Store pickup was offered for just a few minutes after iPhone Duo pre-orders began last Friday, and the option then disappeared until now.
Just hours after iPhone Duo pre-orders began last Friday, Apple said demand for the device was "nothing short of extraordinary," with delivery estimates pushing into late January, so it is not surprising that Apple Store pickup slots are hard to come by right now. Apple said it was working to satisfy demand "as quickly as possible."
Given the scarcity, long queues formed at many Apple Stores around the world today, with some lucky customers managing to secure an iPhone Duo on a walk-in basis.Related Roundup: iPhone DuoTag: Apple StoreBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "Apple Store Pickup System f

Apple Closes French Stores Ahead of Further Protests
Seven Apple stores across France are closed on today, as the country prepares for another round of demonstrations a week after looters targeted two of the company's locations.
As first spotted by MacGeneration, the affected stores include all three Paris locations: Champs-Élysées, Opéra, and Marché Saint-Germain. Apple's website also lists Saturday closures for Bordeaux Sainte-Catherine, Lille, Strasbourg, and Aix-en-Provence.
The closures are likely a precaution to protect employees and stores during the protests. The seven locations have entrances directly onto the street, while Apple's stores inside shopping malls are expected to operate normally during the period.
Apple's Lille and Bordeaux stores were looted during the unrest on October 17 unrest. Both were among many businesses targeted across France.
The demonstrations concern rising living costs and poor conditions in schools, according to the Associated Press. Hundreds of thousands are said to have protested peacefully on October 17, bu

Apple Pushes Back on DOJ Request for More Evidence
Apple and the U.S. Department of Justice disagree over how much newer evidence Apple must hand over in their antitrust case, according to a new court filing this week.
The two sides previously agreed to a June 20, 2025 cutoff for Apple's records. With the evidence-gathering phase now scheduled to end in late May 2027, lawyers want Apple to supply documents created up to 30 days before that deadline. They say newer records could help establish whether the alleged anticompetitive practices are continuing.
Apple argues that expanding the search would delay the case by several months. The company says it has already reviewed more than 11 million documents and handed over more than two million, covering an 18-year period.
The dispute is part of the lawsuit filed in March 2024, which accuses Apple of illegally protecting a smartphone monopoly by restricting competing apps, services, and devices. Apple denies the allegations.
The latest filing asks the court to formally recognize that the two sides c

The iPhone Duo Can Be a Tiny Mac, a Toaster, and a Nintendo DS
The iPhone Duo has an all-new form factor with multiple folding and orientation options, and app developers are having some fun with it. You can find quite a few apps using the foldable display in unique ways, many with skeuomorphic designs.
Tiny Computers ($3.99)
Tiny Computers turns the iPhone Duo into a miniature retro computer, with options inspired by the Macintosh, Commodore 64, Amiga 500, iMac G3, iBook G3, and more. It works best with the iPhone Duo in a seated orientation, giving you a display and a virtual keyboard.
The mini computers have clickable keyboards, desktop games, and paint programs, along with hidden files and easter eggs.
Fold & Squish (Free)
Made by the same developer as Tiny Computers, Fold & Squish lets you make Rorschach art with the Duo. You paint a design on one half of the Duo's display, close it, rub a finger over the outer display to "squish" the virtual paint, then open it up to see your finished design.
