Apple’s iPhone Duo Ranks Third Among Costliest Smartphones

The article compares some of the most expensive smartphones launched in the last two years.

Apple’s first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, costs Rs.

2,99,900 to start in India.

That makes it Apple’s priciest officially sold iPhone.

However, Vertu makes phones that cost even more.

Vertu’s AlphaFold starts at Rs.

6.56 lakh, and its most expensive version costs Rs.

36.47 lakh.

Vertu’s Ironflip also costs more than the iPhone Duo.

Huawei’s tri-fold phone is cheaper than the iPhone Duo based on its converted China price.

Samsung’s listed foldables and Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro Max also have lower starting prices.

The article ranks the phones by their official starting prices, although one description confusingly calls the Ironflip the top phone despite placing the AlphaFold first.
