Gurman: iPhone Duo 2 prototypes with Face ID are already being tested inside Apple

Apple is testing a second-generation iPhone Duo prototype with under-display Face ID, signaling continued investment in improving foldable device usability, biometric authentication, and industrial design. For CIOs and technology leaders, the strategic takeaway is that Apple is working to make foldables more enterprise-ready by reducing authentication friction and potentially improving security consistency across devices, which could accelerate adoption in mobile-first workflows. IT organizations should expect another iteration of device form factors and biometric behavior to validate in MDM, identity, and app compatibility planning—even though the feature is still not guaranteed to ship.
