Apple launches India's first foldable iPhone Duo, sales begin in Bangalore and Delhi
Apple's iPhone Duo, the company's first foldable smartphone, went on sale in India on Oct 23, with initial stock at Bangalore's BKC and Delhi's Saket stores selling out through pre‑bookings.
Apple has officially launched the iPhone Duo, its first foldable smartphone, in India. Sales began on 23 October, marking the company's entry into the Indian foldable market. The launch was supported by pre‑booking, and the entire first‑week inventory at two flagship stores – the BKC outlet in Bangalore and the Saket outlet in Delhi – was sold out within days.
The iPhone Duo features a dual‑screen design that folds vertically, offering a larger display when opened while retaining a compact form factor when closed. Apple positions the device as a premium offering, targeting early adopters and users seeking a high‑end foldable experience.
Analysts note that the rapid sell‑out reflects strong consumer interest in premium foldable devices, despite the product’s high price point. Apple’s entry into the Indian foldable segment could intensify competition with existing manufacturers and influence future pricing strategies.
The company has not disclosed further rollout plans, but the initial success in Bangalore and Delhi suggests a promising start for the iPhone Duo in the Indian market.
