Apple is Apparently Considering a Slightly Larger iPhone Duo

iPhone Duo Open large scaled featureOn a new episode of his Power On podcast, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said he "heard" that Apple is "looking at" the idea of a future iPhone Duo with an inner display that is "roughly half an inch" larger than the one on the existing model.

iPhone Duo has a 7.6-inch inner display and a 5.4-inch outer display. Gurman does not know exactly how much larger the inner display would be on a future model, but he said it could be somewhere in the 7.9-inch to 8.1-inch range. He said this would not be a separate model, so do not expect an "iPhone Duo Max."

Wait wait… Did Gurman just say he heard something?

Must have been his predictive inner-monologue.

Mark has a Tim Cook rubber mask hanging in his office that talks to him like the Green Goblin mask. That mask *insisted* the AirPods Pro 3 were delayed and gosh darn it he still insists that's the case.

Someone who really doesn’t know one way or another would really like everyone to believe that Apple’s considering a larger iPhone Duo based on their word. They would also like you to subscribe to their newsletter ANNNND podcast if you would be so kind.

(Confidentially, they’ll be reporting at some point in the future about how Apple decided not to do the thing Apple never said they’d do in the first place.)
