If you are planning on buying Apple’s upcoming iPhone Duo, don’t be surprised if you check the operating system and realize it’s a different model from the rest of Apple’s iPhones. This is because the iPhone Duo will ship with a day-one update that’s exclusive to the handset.
iPhone Duo to ship with day-one update
According to the reports, it seems that Apple will ship the iPhone Duo with a day-one update. This means that instead of coming with iOS 27, it will come with iOS 27.1. It appears that this could be exclusive to the phone, possibly addressing bugs and other issues or even introducing new features ahead of its release.
However, as MacRumors notes, there is still about one and a half weeks before the phone is officially out. This means there’s a chance that Apple could release more updates between now and then, bumping it up to iOS 27.2. It’s just speculation for now, so we’ll have to wait and see. It is also unclear what’s in the iOS 27.1 update that’s exclusive to the iPhone Duo.
But it makes sense that Apple has a day-one update for the phone. This is the first new form factor since the original iPhone was released 19 years ago. Plus at its price, Apple has a lot riding on its success. So it makes sense that Apple wants to squash as many bugs as possible to ensure a smooth launch.
Pre-orders opening soon
If you are interested in getting your hands on the iPhone Duo, pre-orders kick off this Friday, October 16. The phone is then officially going on sale on October 23. Given the price point, we’re sure that many of you might be hesitant about buying it. But you don’t want to take too long to decide.
This is because according to the most recent reports, Apple is facing somewhat low manufacturing yields for the iPhone Duo. This means that getting one on launch day could be tricky, especially if you’re not fast enough. This might not be a bad thing, though. You could always wait and see what the reviews say before deciding.
However, if you want to be one of the first in the world to get it, then you’ll want to get ready.
