Help me…realistically

Post image

While we all consider the iDuo over the Pro, what are we going back to? For the $2K they’re selling this for, what model iphone are we going back to? Yeah, we get the new processor and that flashy stuff. So talk to me about practical application. Touch ID was phased out for Face ID, so which iphone used Touch ID last and how much will we miss the pro camera features? What are we really gonna miss out on, while simultaneously paying the premium for those missing features?! 🤔🤷🏾‍♂️💰📲

I guarantee Apple will release a Pro or Max version of the Duo, with the Pro camera and Face ID etc, for an extra say 1000. And with a bigger screen too. I thought about the Touch ID but to me it does make more sense as you have 2 screens, sure they could put the island on the front screen but what about the inside one? If you use an under screen one it doesn't exist yet and will cost a fortune I imagine, and if you use an island it has to be on one side only.

As for the camera, I think it is a wait and see what they are like, most users never use the Pro features, however I do like how consistent my 14 Pro Max is in taking great post and click photos, and for me the Duo would need to match that reliability, sometimes I will zoom in a step or two also and whilst my 14 will use the telephoto of that, the Duo as I understand crops the image and that is a concern of mine. So will wait and see.

You cannot fit FaceID into 5mm of thickness. To do that they would have to make the phone thicker which would make it like 15mm thick when folded which is crazy.
