iPhone Duo Expected to Sell Six Million Units by End of 2026
- Counterpoint Research projects Apple will sell about 6 million units of the inaugural iPhone Duo this year, marking the first estimate for the company's entry into the foldable smartphone segment.

- Market researcher IDC estimates the foldable sector will grow 13% to 22.9 million units shipped in 2026 with Apple's contribution to this expansion.
- Introduced alongside the Duo this month, Apple's iPhone 18 Pro family secured 33% of China's smartphone arena, bucking a 17% year-on-year market decline.
- Counterpoint senior analyst Ivan Lam noted sales success is contingent on production capacity, though price hikes exceeding $200 on Chinese flagship models have strengthened the iPhone's relative value proposition.
