Apple's Foldable Is Almost Here. See How iPhone Prices Have Grown

  • Apple is limiting iPhone Duo pre-orders to a maximum of two units per customer globally, with checkout warnings appearing in the United States, UK, and other regions to curb bulk purchasing.
  • The measure follows "extraordinary" pre-order demand that pushed shipping estimates into January, as Apple aims to deter scalpers reselling devices for over $5,000 on eBay.
  • Limited walk-in units will be available in the United States on Friday, October 23, though India and Japan restrict sales to online order pickups only for customers with prior reservations.
  • Some customers report delivery dates moving from January to mid-November, while early reports indicate certain buyers successfully ordered more than two units before enforcement became consistent across regions.
  • The International Data Corporation projects the iPhone Duo could capture 40% of the foldable market by 2027, while Apple has used similar two-unit purchase caps since the iPhone 5 launch in 2012.
