Apple has launched a configurator page on apple.com letting customers save color, storage, carrier and payment details ahead of iPhone Duo preorders opening at 5 a.m. PT Friday. The foldable device, unveiled at Apple's Surprise and Shine event, features a 7.6-inch unfolded display, folds to passport size, and supports split-screen multitasking and Apple Pencil under iOS 27.

GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Letting buyers pre-stage their order details suggests Apple anticipates heavy demand and wants to minimize checkout friction when preorders go live, a tactic often used for high-hype, supply-constrained launches. The steep price points could signal Apple's intent to position the Duo as a premium flagship rather than a mass-market device, though actual demand and supply levels remain to be seen.
