iPhone Duo: Apple isn't going to "teach what a foldable is". It's going to "demonstrate why people need one"

Apple is about to enter the foldable phone market with the iPhone Duo, well after Samsung, Huawei and other manufacturers, but could have a significant impact on the segment. According to analyst Francisco Jerónimo, Apple's strategy will be different: instead of "teaching" consumers what a foldable is, the Cupertino company will "demonstrate why people need one". This approach could accelerate the adoption of the format globally, benefiting not only Apple, but also its competitors in the foldable market.
