Apple's first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, sold out at numerous Apple stores within minutes of launch-day opening on Friday, with some locations depleting stock before doors even opened. Shoppers had camped outside stores like Apple's 5th Avenue location in New York starting two days early, while preorders that opened October 16 had already created a backlog stretching into early next year. The device, priced from $1,999, features split-screen capability, Touch ID, a photo preview display and Apple Pencil support.

Actual pre-orders open Friday, October 16 at 8:00 a.m. ET / 5:00 a.m. PT, and completing the setup early is meant to speed up checkout that morning.
