Apple Acknowledges iPhone Duo Inner Display Issue After Cracked Screen Reports

Apple has officially acknowledged a problem with the inner display of its iPhone Duo, following multiple user reports of cracked screens and a distinctive bright line running from the center to the right edge. In a statement to Bloomberg and 9to5Mac, the company said it is aware of “an issue impacting the inner display” affecting a “small number of iPhone Duo units.” The issue has drawn attention from owners who noticed spontaneous cracks or display failures without any obvious cause, raising concerns about the durability of the foldable device. While Apple has not yet detailed the root cause or announced a formal repair program, the acknowledgment suggests the company is investigating the matter and may offer solutions for affected customers. For iPhone Duo users, this development matters because it could mean free repairs or replacements if Apple determines the flaw is covered under warranty or a quality program. The iPhone Duo is Apple’s first foldable phone, and any hardware defect could impact consumer confidence in the new form factor. Apple advises anyone experiencing this issue to contact Apple Support for assistance. The company is expected to release more details as its investigation continues.
