[The Register on the iPhone Duo’s display problems](https://www.theregister.com/personal-tech/2026/10/27/apples-foldable-phone-has-a-crease-in-its-reputation/5305669)

The Register reports that Apple has acknowledged display problems affecting a small
number of iPhone Duo units and is directing affected customers to AppleCare. That
is a more useful development than another alarming screenshot with an uncertain 
origin.

The missing number is the denominator: Apple has not said how many devices are affected.
A first-generation foldable having a bad week is a story; declaring the whole product
doomed is several folds ahead of the evidence.
