Wednesday at 10:12 PM2 days comment_972672 I'll admit, Duo looks legit cool in these reviews. Also looks like it is going to take 3rd party software a little while (or a long while) to catch up to it.Happy to sit out this round but could be interested in Rev 2.0 next year. Report

I think it will be mainstream in a few years.I love my Galaxy Fold 5, though it's getting up there in age.Most of the apps I use on Android are well adapted to the folding size, and with how established the Mini has been in iPad land, I think 3rd parties will come out with solid builds faster than T$ thinks.I've been away from iOS for a couple years now, but while I was tempted by the Duo, the fiscally responsible-ish side of me says "Gen 2: Electric Boogaloo" is the way to go. Wish it had better cameras, though... Report
Thursday at 07:06 PM2 days comment_972688 The price of the Duo is just insane. Only rich first adopters are going for it.Economies of scale and further development should mean the costs will go down (and more apps will fully support Duos out of the box). I think iOS itself will take a while to find the best ways to get the most out of the Duo's screen real estate.Also, I think it will be a premium portable gaming handheld as well, once you clamp on some controllers.

The 2TB model is dear, but that's the market + Apple tax.Definitely pricey, but it's not necessarily out of line with other foldables.I think developers will have decent builds out of the gate with something rather solid sooner than people expect. I love messages/emails with my Fold 5 open. Don't do tons of side by side or top/bottom apps, but when I do it typically is a smooth process. Report

Gruber's "it's a great tablet but a lousy phone" take seems about right to me.Daring FireballThe iPhone DuoIt’s been a lot of fun trying the Duo out for a week, but it feels like I’ve gotten to use an extraordinarily polished prototype — not a finished product that I’d want to buy and carry.
