“It’s our smallest largest iPhone ever” They’re wiser than I but this aspect ratio already seems like a weird choice. And cynically designed to increase in gen 2, 3, 4 onwards.

iPhone Duo is more like iPad Pocket. Touch ID + Apple Pencil Support coming later this year. It looks physically uncomfortable to hold. I was really hoping they were going to slap an Apple Watch screen on the back of an iPhone Air and fold that in half. I'll be waiting for an iPhone Duo Mini, I guess.

Nice touch with the "one more thing". OTOH, Steve must be rolling over in his grave about the stylus-on-iPhone capability.
