First Reviews of the New iPhone Duo

Sales of the iPhone Duo are expected to begin any day now. In the most critical review on forums, the smartphone received a score of 7 out of 10, with video editing and PDF viewing specifically highlighted as strong points.

The authors of 9to5Mac found the device more comfortable than the large iPhone 18 Pro Max, despite its noticeable weight. According to their assessment, around 20% of the battery charge remains by the end of a typical day, though the price and functional limitations may make the model less appealing to most buyers.

TechRadar praised the hinge, the smooth transition between screens, and the Smart Take feature, which automatically selects the best shots. Battery life in this review was reported at 13–14 hours, and the cameras received a more favorable evaluation: the main and ultra-wide lenses perform well in low light. Among the drawbacks, the lack of facial recognition was noted.
