Apple Tests Larger iPhone Duo 2 as Telephoto Lens Stays on List for 2028

Summary
Apple is testing future iPhone Duo models with a larger inner display, with Mark Gurman saying a third-generation version could grow by roughly 0.5 inch from today’s 7.6-inch screen.
That increase would keep the device in the high-7-inch to low-8-inch range rather than pushing it to 8.5 or 9 inches, suggesting Apple is planning only a modest size bump.
Gurman also said a Telephoto camera is on Apple’s roadmap for the foldable line, but called it difficult because the lens depth required creates a physics problem rather than a cost issue.
The latest details add to Gurman’s separate report that second-generation Duo prototypes are testing under-display Face ID and possibly an Action button ahead of the first model’s $1,999 launch.
