It is a notable omission, especially given its starting price of <b>S$3,099<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Another possible addition is the <b>Action Button<\/b>. The current iPhone Duo features a Camera Control button for quicker access to camera functions, while an Action Button could provide a customisable shortcut to selected features and apps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">For now, Face ID and the Action Button are <b>potential upgrades Apple is testing<\/b>, not confirmed features of the next foldable iPhone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Meanwhile, the first-generation iPhone Duo remains sold out at many retail stores across Singapore. Apple has described the pre-order demand as \u201cextraordinary\u201d, and the company has reportedly increased orders to meet stronger-than-expected interest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Source: Bloomberg via 9to5Mac<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hardwarezone.com.sg\/mobile\/smartphones\/iphone-duo-successor-upgrade-testing-apple\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><br \/>\n<center><script>\n  atOptions = {\n    'key' : 'ab8cc34fbebd96e6c135978b4baca540',\n    'format' : 'iframe',\n    'height' : 90,\n    'width' : 728,\n    'params' : {}\n  };\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"https:\/\/www.highrevenueformat.com\/ab8cc34fbebd96e6c135978b4baca540\/invoke.js\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple\u2019s first foldable iPhone has only just gone on sale, but the company is reportedly already testing prototypes of its successor.
