The iPhone Duo was the unequivocal star of Apple's "Surprise and shine" event , but not for people who were mostly paying attention for news on wearables. Thankfully, Apple had a lot to share about its new Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 . There's no update to the SE model for 2026, which isn't necessarily a bad thing ( the SE 3 rules ). Also, no price changes either, which can't be said for the entire iPhone lineup . While both new watches look similar to their predecessors, there are a number of updates under the hood that

With the iPhone Duo , Apple has pulled off a familiar trick. It arrives into a mature Android foldable market with a handful of hardware features we've mostly already seen elsewhere, but paired with a level of software polish that makes a lot of them feel new again. It's those software flourishes that have me excited to try the iPhone Duo when it launches next month, but I'm less convinced that its hardware will be anything special. If Apple had gotten there first, the Duo's biggest surprise would have been its squat, wide, passport-inspired shape. But its slow-moving supply chain
