Apple replaces iPhone Duo phones with cracked inner screens

Some iPhone Duo owners reported cracked inner displays within hours of purchase; Apple said it would replace affected units.

Apple's iPhone Duo foldable phone, which launched on Friday at $1,999, has experienced display problems affecting what the company described as a 'small number' of units. Multiple users reported that the inner screen cracked or developed bright lines and dead pixels along the hinge within hours or days of use, with some hearing a crunching or popping noise when opening the device. Apple acknowledged the issue on Monday and said it would replace affected phones under AppleCare warranty. The repair cost for the inner display out of warranty is $999. Repair firm iFixit suggested the problem may stem from the phone's complex hinge design potentially applying pressure to the sensitive inner screen.
