Anand Ahuja Praises Apple’s John Ternus and Foldable iPhone Duo
Duo-ing it up: Anand Ahuja on John Ternus, iPhone Duo and Sonam Kapoor - Telegraph India · telegraphindia.com

Anand Ahuja visited Apple’s headquarters and met its new CEO, John Ternus.

He said Ternus understands Apple’s products and feels responsible for leading the company.

Apple is preparing several new devices, including the iPhone 18 Pro and a foldable phone called the iPhone Duo.

The iPhone Duo opens to show a larger inner screen.

Its special screen finish is designed to reduce glare and make the display easier to use.

It also includes a camera hidden under the inner screen.

Ahuja thinks the phone could be especially useful for reading, games and video calls.

He said Sonam Kapoor would like it because she reads ebooks on her phone and often calls her sister.

The iPhone Duo is expected to become available in India on October 23.

“The 18 Pro for me is a must. I used the Air for a big part of this year, but I ended up coming back to the Pro because of the camera. I'm a big Pro user, and I'm definitely going to be getting it.”
