So with the Duo, how do you just throw it on a MagSafe stand and have it go into Standby Mode? Do you *have* to open it? Because then it rotates on the stand

iOS 27 and the Duo have some weird Dynamic Island behavior christianselig.com/2026/10/ios-...

Anyone encountering weird iPhone Duo dynamic island behavior, where if you compile with the Xcode 27 SDK in even a sample app with just an icon, you get fat padding, but with 26 it looks normal? I thought it was sim only, but seeing on device, too

After a year of iPhone Air speaker(s) the Duo's are a breath of fresh air

With how amazing and large the Duo inner screen is, it's a real shame Apple didn't bring their Screen Sharing Mac app to the Duo

This Duo is a gorgeous phone but I am so back and forth on the nano texture inside screen. It's actually really cool looking, but whenever I go back to the outside screen the colors are so much more vivid

let's goooooooo

omg. say sike right now. goodbye november

Looks like the rumors were wrong, HTX Studios x-rayed the Duo and its camera sensor looks the same size as the regular iPhone 17 *not* the 17e 🥳

My launch day AirPods Max officially no longer have noise cancelling/passthrough and just sound like a perpetual wind storm, but given the price of replacements I'll just live with them in dumb, normal mode

Crazy to think this time next week there will be dozens of iPhone Duos out in the wild

3D printed an iPhone Duo mockup and damn this thing has better hinge control than most Android foldables

me playing with my 3d printed iphone duo because i can't get a real one

My M1 Pro MacBook with broken Touch ID, screaming fans, and a battery that has been at "service please" for two years is looking forward to a well deserved retirement

Dang, Duo already backordered almost to February 2027 lol

Wow, that's the first time I've seen it say unavailable for pickup at your local Apple Store, did they make so few Duos that some Apple Stores just aren't getting any?

I would buy a new Apple TV in a heartbeat if it somehow fixed YouTube nerfing the quality of 60 fps videos if you increase the playback speed www.makeuseof.com/youtube-has...

If you've moved onto the Home Assistant ecosystem there's not much value in the HomeView, is there?

People who have done Duo labs (or Apple folks), if you're folding the device and the folding blur effect is active, is the the left side of the screen still responsive to touches? The right?

I knew the Duo had a smaller camera sensor (rumor is similar to 17e), whatever, I'm used to the iPhone Air, but I didn't realize how small that would mean. That's closer to the iPhone 6 than the Air (Rumor might be wrong, and there's been more advancements than just sensor size)

Shame the Duo lacks an action button, going to try to train myself to use that back tap feature instead in the meantime

Anyone else been totally unable to get the iPhone 18 Pro's triple live activity thing working in the dynamic island on the simulator? Only ever shows two for me

Went with mom to pick up an EV5 (her first electric vehicle) and gotta say, it's a really impressive vehicle. Unfortunate the US isn't getting this, it sits really nicely between the EV3 and EV9 and has some stuff I'm jealous of with Rivian

I just witnessed the world’s most patient Apple Store employee explain try to someone for 25 minutes that they don’t make ChatGPT and what software is

she like the computer heat

Tip: if you're like me and updating your Apple TV to tvOS 27 made every HomeKit device unresponsive, sign out of your Apple account on the TV, reboot, sign back in, and it should be fixed

I still can't believe I got one of these for $2,000 at launch

Dreaming of a burgundy iPhone Duo

Was curious how much the 17 Pro and 18 Pro differed in size. Gonna guess not much if the Apple Store is installing 17 Pro screen protectors on the 18 😆

Does Jev support multimodal input? Could you give it a photo of someone's face and request it to identify if they're happy, sad, or neutral?

Codex needs a setting like "if I haven't interacted with you in 2 hours and there's an update you want to install just do it". Love the updates but seems like there's always one

God damn RAM prices are even affecting the vegan breakfast sandwiches

Happy to say after 2 weeks of looking for my AirPods case I remember they now work with Find My and it was stuck in my mattress

Any pics of MagSafe attaching to the Duo? Curious how that looks/where the magnet is positioned, will determine which batteries can attach to it

Hyundai Ioniq 5 or KIA EV5 and why? (R2 isn't available in Canada and don't want a Tesla)

I really hope Xteink gets to making a full 6 inch e-reader (and adds back USB-C). Love their design language

I cut a really rotten tree down and now I feel terrible

Quite grateful I picked up an M4 Mac mini for $300 on marketplace earlier

Forgot my phone at IKEA, went back to a few employees passing it back and forth going "it's so thin what the heck" The iPhone Air isn't a perfect phone but times like that make it worth it

Took the common recommendation and got the Inovelli White smart switch. Beautiful and love the LED bar, but the paddle sometimes doesn't respond, seems like an unfortunately wide spread issue (and a dealbreaker) for such an expensive switch. Zooz next? community.inovelli.com/t/consider-...

Kinda shocked how hard it is to find a decent pepper mill without plastic components. Peugeot I thought you were supposed to be the good brand

Smart home people: for standard looking smart paddle switches, do you keep the usual top = on / bottom = off behavior, or assign each half to a different light and have each button toggle its light on/off? I’m leaning toward the latter, but wondering if it would confuse guests

If you were choosing to buy smart light switches in 2026, which brand/model/protocol are you going with, and why? (Has to support smart bulb mode and not fully kill power to the bulb, I like my color temperature auto changing over the course of the day!)

Big Walk desperately needs a photo mode

Devastated and shocked to learn I can’t play Big Walk on Playdate :(

I found probably the coolest use for the Vision Pro christianselig.com/2026/07/visi...

One of the best moves you can make for financial independence is growing your own blueberries

iOS 27 desperately needs an “if I move an app it should never move everything else” option
