Apple Unveils First Foldable iPhone and 2026 Lineup at Keynote

Tanvir Ahmed·September 12, 2026·2 min read

Apple held its 2026 keynote, where it presented its new product lineup, businessinsider.de reports. The centerpiece was the iPhone Duo, the company's first foldable handset, which drew first-look coverage from outlets including Spiegel and 1&1. Apple also showed the iPhone 18 Pro as part of the same event.

The iPhone Duo marks Apple's entry into the foldable category, a segment other manufacturers have occupied for years. According to Yahoo Finanzen Deutschland, Samsung receives 250 US dollars for every iPhone Duo sold, a detail that points to a supplier relationship behind the device. Spiegel framed the launch as Apple reinventing the foldable phone, while 1&1 published an initial hands-on impression of the hardware.

Pricing has become a talking point as well. WiWo examined whether the iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 Pro justify what it described as Apple's jump into luxury pricing, suggesting the new models sit at the upper end of the company's range. The coverage so far centers on the foldable design and the cost of the lineup rather than detailed specifications.
