A comparison of the specifications of the Xiaomi 18 Fold and iPhone Duo

Fast Technology reported that Apple officially launched its first foldable screen phone, the iPhone Duo. The starting price of 15,999 yuan immediately attracted widespread attention from netizens across the internet, as Apple’s first foldable product has significantly raised the price range of foldable screen flagship phones.

For leading Android manufacturers who have been deeply involved in the foldable screen market for many years, Apple’s new foldable screen phone, which it has been holding back for several years, is not a new thing at all. In fact, its overall product form is not much different from the current mass-produced Android foldable models.

Riding the wave of Apple’s new product launch, Xiaomi has scheduled the official launch of its flagship foldable phone, the Xiaomi 18 Fold, which is positioned as the most high-end foldable phone to date, across all channels today, clearly aiming to compete head-on with Apple’s new foldable phone.

Many tech enthusiasts have already compiled a comprehensive comparison list of the two new phones’ specifications. Many netizens who have seen the comparison table say that, based on the hardware specifications on paper, the Xiaomi 18 Fold can almost completely crush the newly released iPhone Duo. Especially after domestic manufacturers have continuously strengthened their core technologies such as self-developed chips in recent years, the gap in the hard power of their products has widened significantly.

The Xiaomi 18 Fold starts at just 10,999 yuan, which is 5,000 yuan cheaper than the starting price of the iPhone Duo. In return for the lower price, it offers a larger battery, a more powerful imaging system, faster wired and wireless dual fast charging, and a richer localized feature experience.

Many consumers have started to discuss whether, given that Apple doesn’t offer a truly groundbreaking experience, anyone would be willing to spend an extra 5,000 yuan to buy Apple’s first foldable phone, especially if they aren’t loyal iOS fans.
