What happened
On October 28, 2026, TrendForce reported that reports of inner-screen damage have emerged less than a week into iPhone Duo preorders. TrendForce raised the question of whether, given the device's minimal crease, hinge design could be key to durability, and linked its further analysis titled 'iPhone Duo Launch Sparks Strong Demand, but Fold-Area Structural Reliability and Hardware–Software...'. The source does not state the cause; the specific cause of the inner-screen damage is not confirmed in the report, and hinge design is raised only as an open question for analysis, not as an established conclusion.
