The massive market debut of Apple’s first foldable device, the iPhone Duo, has left the tech giant struggling to keep up with consumer demand. Retailing at $2,000, the premium handset was met with an immediate rush of buyers, leading to widespread sell-outs shortly after its official launch.

As prospective buyers search for ways to acquire the elusive device, reports have emerged detailing the tactics used by scalpers to snap up limited stock. Technology analysts and reviewers who tested the iPhone Duo have praised the hardware as a fascinating experiment in form factor innovation, though many noted that the steep price point makes it difficult for the average consumer to justify the purchase.

Apple corporate spokespersons have addressed the supply shortages, stating that it remains ‘hard to predict’ when production constraints will improve or when sufficient inventory will be available to satisfy global demand. The company is actively monitoring the supply chain, but consumers should expect limited availability in the near term.
