Apple's New iPhone Duo Sparks Betting Frenzy Over Touchscreen MacBook

Crypto billionaire Changpeng 'CZ' Zhao has given his verdict on Apple's new iPhone Duo, calling it 'pretty good for charting'. The Binance founder shared a screenshot of the BNB/USDT price from the Binance app, hinting at his interest in the device.

The iPhone Duo starts at $1,999 and features a 7.6-inch inner display, with a 5.4-inch outer display that provides about 90% of the screen area of the iPhone 18 Pro. Preorders for the phone open on October 16, with store availability beginning on October 23.

Investor Gary Black believes the iPhone Duo will 'usher in a new iPhone upgrade cycle' and 'substantially increase' Apple's average selling price.

Prediction markets are also betting on Apple's next moves. The odds of Apple launching a touchscreen MacBook by December 31 are currently at 60%, although they have cooled from an all-time high of 86% earlier in the week.
