• Battery Life: Rated for up to 24 to 44 hours of mixed video playback depending on screen usage.
• Charging: Supports high-speed wired charging (reaching 50% in roughly 20 minutes) alongside 25W MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging.

6. Software (iOS 27)

Shipped with iOS 27, which has been completely redesigned specifically for foldable form factors:

• iPad-inspired Multitasking: Runs side-by-side split-screen applications natively on the inner display.
• Adaptive UI: Elements like the dock, status icons, and app controls shift dynamically to maximize vertical workspace or adapt depending on the hinge angle (such as tabletop/tent modes).
• Apple Pencil Support: Adds compatibility for the USB-C Apple Pencil (via future software updates), marking a first for any iPhone model.

7. Pricing and Availability

Positioned as an ultra-premium, top-tier flagship device, the iPhone Duo is offered in colors like Night Sky and Star White. Pricing details reflect its ultra-luxury tier:

• 256GB: ₹2,99,900
