the iphone duo or any foldable phone in general is a waste of time. If you were smart, you wouldn't get the iPhone Duo, but y'all gonna do what y'all wanna do. As someone who works hand in hand out of phone store, the foldable phones have the worst reputation right now. They're on Fold 8, Flip 8. The issue is that for 8 years, these phones have had issues that they cannot figure out. The crease in the middle, the front screen going black, random lines going down the screen. The phone not folding all the way. There are so many issues with these phones. These phones are so expensive and you guys do not want to get protection on them. So when you don't get protection, you come in the store upset and I rate because the phone is broken and you have to pay out of pocket. Apple is a weird company, but for the first year, they don't want anyone to warranty their phone but Apple. Have you ever been to the Apple store trying to get your phone fixed? And they argue with you and bargain with you and tell you to go to your carrier. So you're about to buy a $1,100 phone, that's not gonna be able to get fixed. Y'all are insane. I would never put my trust in that phone, ever. But it's y'all money, y'all grown, y'all do what you want when you pop.
