Notting CEO Carl P criticized the $2,000 price of the iPhone Duo, Apple's first foldable phone, calling it a "waste of money". He believes that despite the high price, this phone does not have features such as a telephoto camera and Face ID facial recognition, and its internal selfie camera is weaker than the iPhone 18 Pro camera.

Carl P said on Instagram and YouTube that paying $2,000 for the iPhone Duo is not worth it. Explaining this, he wrote in his Instagram caption: "$2,000 is a lot of money for a bigger screen and attractive animation."

iPhone Duo was introduced last month as Apple's first foldable phone; A product that is launched more than six years after the first folding phones of Android manufacturers were introduced to the market. Despite the high price of this phone, Pi believes that its features are not proportional to the cost that buyers pay.

In his video, CEO Nutting points out three limitations of the iPhone 2: the lack of a telephoto camera, the use of a weaker internal selfie camera than the iPhone 18 Pro, and the removal of Face ID.

However, the iPhone Duo is not the only folding phone that does not provide users with some features despite the high price. For example, Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 is priced at $1,900, but lacks a telephoto camera, Flex Mode, and dust resistance.

Pi also mentioned the feedback published on the Internet about the iPhone 2 opening animation. According to him, many of the videos he has seen have praised this animation; But he believes this feature is ultimately just an animation. He also pointed to an example where someone made a version of this animation for Android and Galaxy Z Fold 8 with the help of artificial intelligence coding.

However, Pi admits that Apple can command the highest price for its foldable phone because the company pays attention to small details.

This is not the first time that the CEO of Nutting has criticized foldable phones. In 2023, he also said that foldable phones are a category of products that "manufacturers are forcing on consumers". Notting company currently does not have a folding phone in its product portfolio.
