TL;DR: The new Apple iPhone Duo is $1,000 off with T-Mobile. To qualify for this preorder deal, you need to switch to T-Mobile and bring your number on an Experience Beyond plan.
The launch of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max naturally caused a stir, but prepare yourself for the seismic impact of the iPhone Duo. It's Apple's first-ever foldable phone — did you expect this to drop quietly?
Preorders for the Apple iPhone Duo have officially arrived, and T-Mobile is coming out of the gate with one of its biggest carrier promotions of the year.
Right now, T-Mobile is offering up to $1,000 off the Apple iPhone Duo via 36 monthly bill credits when you switch and bring your number on an Experience Beyond plan. You are still required to cover local sales tax on the phone's full pre-credit retail value upfront at checkout, plus T-Mobile's standard $35 device connection fee.
The $1,000 discount is distributed as 36 monthly bill credits. If you decide to cancel your service, downgrade your plan, or switch carriers before three years have passed, the remaining hardware balance becomes due immediately. But if you are already planning to stick with T-Mobile's top-tier unlimited plan for the long haul, taking $1,000 off Apple's iPhone Duo is a massive win for your tech budget ahead of Black Friday.
Carrier deals like this might be your best chance to score the iPhone Duo. Preorders for the iPhone Duo opened at 8 a.m. ET on Friday, and the phone was sold out moments later. Mashable Tech Editor Timothy Werth tried to get his hands on the new phone, but missed the "blink-and-you'll-miss-it window."
