TREE NEWS update: Apple’s first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, opened pre-orders at 8pm, with multiple online platforms showing no stock and Apple’s official site listing delivery dates in some regions pushed back to December. On the resale platform Dewu, several pre-order versions traded above 20,000 yuan, with the 1TB black model near 29,000 yuan — 7,143 yuan above its launch price — while the 256GB black version rose nearly 40%.
Apple iPhone Duo pre-orders sell out online; resale prices near 29,000 yuan
Scarcity, not the launch itself, is driving the story: the resale premium of 7,143 yuan on the top model and a near-40% jump on the entry version signal demand far exceeding early supply, with December delivery dates confirming the bottleneck. That matters most for Apple's pricing power narrative around its first foldable, and for scalpers and buyers treating launch inventory as a tradable asset. Whether the premium holds once supply normalizes — or fades as it did for past Apple launches — is the open question worth watching.
