When and where to buy
The iPhone Duo is Apple's first foldable smartphone. The company unveiled it in September. Pre-orders in Poland started on October 16 at 2:00 PM. The phone can be ordered via the Apple online store, authorized retailers, and mobile operators. Plus and T-Mobile have confirmed pre-orders. Regular sales are set to begin on October 23.
According to unofficial information cited by Spider's Web, Apple is expected to ship approximately 10 million units worldwide by the end of the year. This is 30 percent more than previous estimates.
How much does the iPhone Duo cost
Four memory versions are available in Poland. Apple does not offer a 128 GB variant. Prices are as follows:
- 256 GB: 9,999 PLN,
- 512 GB: 10,999 PLN,
- 1 TB: 12,999 PLN,
- 2 TB: 15,999 PLN.
The phone features an internal 7.6-inch foldable screen and a 5.4-inch external screen. It runs on the Apple A20 Pro processor. It has two 48 MP cameras, main and wide-angle, but no telephoto lens. The frame and hinge cover are made of titanium. Both screens feature ProMotion and Dynamic Island. According to GSMonline, the phone plays video for up to 44 hours on the external screen and up to 31 hours on the internal one.
Apple repair price list
Apple has published the repair prices for the iPhone Duo at official service centers. The individual items are as follows:
- internal, foldable screen: 4,999 PLN,
- external screen: 2,149 PLN,
- external screen and back glass together: 2,769 PLN,
- rear camera: 1,189 PLN,
- battery: 1,119 PLN,
- back glass: 909 PLN,
- damage to the screen protective layer: 229 PLN,
- other damage: 7,499 PLN.
For comparison: according to Spider's Web, replacing the battery in an iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max costs 629 PLN, which is 490 PLN less. According to Antyweb, a new screen for the iPhone 18 Pro is an expense of 1,779 PLN. Spider's Web also notes that the "other damage" category repair is more expensive than a new iPhone 18 Pro Max 256 GB, which costs 6,799 PLN.
What this means for buyers
The most expensive part of the iPhone Duo is the foldable screen. Replacing it in the cheapest version of the phone costs roughly half the purchase price. Even replacing the battery after a few years will cost over 1,100 PLN.
Antyweb points out that repair costs can be reduced by an additional protection plan if purchased together with the phone. Therefore, before buying, it is worth checking the offer for such a plan from Apple or an operator and comparing it with the repair price list. The cheapest item on the list, 229 PLN, concerns damage to the protective layer on the internal screen. According to Antyweb, this likely refers to the factory-applied film.
The choice of memory version also affects the bill. The difference between the cheapest and most expensive model is 6,000 PLN. This is more than the cost of replacing the foldable screen, which is 4,999 PLN. A buyer who chooses a cheaper memory version can therefore set aside the difference for a potential repair.
