Apple's foldable iPhone Duo, priced from $1999 to $3199, features an inner display cover that can be peeled off and replaced once creasing becomes visible, hardware lead Kate Bergeron confirmed. The replacement costs $19 for AppleCare customers and $49 without it.
In an interview with TechRadar, Apple's new VP of Hardware Engineering Tom Marieb described the design choices behind iPhone Duo's foldable hinge and display. He said the matte, nano-textured screen was chosen partly to disguise crease visibility over time, while the hinge's torque was carefully tuned to feel solid, like a high-end car door, even when held half-open.
