Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, speaking on his Power On podcast, shared fresh details about future iPhone Duo models, including larger screens and a possible Telephoto camera. The iPhone Duo is not yet on sale, but Gurman says Apple is testing iPhone Duo 2 models with Face ID under the outer display and is exploring ways to add an Action button.
Looking further ahead to a 2028 third-generation model, Gurman said the iPhone Duo 3 is expected to have a slightly larger inside screen, increasing by roughly half an inch. He stressed the change is marginal and would not make the outer screen much bigger, with the inner display moving into the high-7-inch to very-low-8-inch range. The current iPhone Duo has a 7.6-inch folding display. He compared the shift to Apple's gradual enlargement of its Pro line, from 6.7 inches on the iPhone 15 Pro Max to 6.9 inches on the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Gurman also said a Telephoto camera is "on their list" for future iPhone Duo models, but he doesn't know when it will arrive. He described the challenge as purely a physics issue tied to the depth required for the lens, not cost. "It's going to be interesting to see how they end up solving that," he said.
The report is based on podcast remarks rather than an official Apple announcement, so the timing and specifications of these features remain unconfirmed.
