No. I’m able to use my 17 pro max mostly one handed, like right now as I type this laying in bed. The Duo form factor would break that for me.
 
Device looks very tempting. I wonder how the pencil experience will turn out to be. If it can replace the one thing I think iPads are exceptional at, that could remove a category of device.

Wish it was on-par camera wise
 
Really excited to see the foldable from Apple after a very long time. However with no telephoto lens, no FaceID and a matte screen, the 1st generation is not for me and not to mention the ridiculous pricing in my country (around $3160 for the 256GB version). On top of that I feel like I should get AppleCare (without theft protection) for the foldable which costs $85 per month.

Pricing in a country could change due to import duty and taxes but I see no reason why AppleCare has to be more than 4 times the price in US (with theft protection).

Will wait and see what future models will bring. For now definitely buying a Z Fold 8 from Samsung makes sense instead of Duo. Software and User Experience on Duo will be fantastic.

I really like the device, except for missing FaceID and the price off course. Maybe if a future version has FaceID and the price will go down after the rampocalypse I’ll consider it, if my Air has gotten too slow or something by that time.
 
I can get the 512gb Duo for $1979 with my company discount, and furthermore I’ll be in Delaware on the 23rd where I can pick it up tax free…. Sooooooo tempting

I'm tempted but my 17 Pro still works fine. I'd rather wait because I assume a future version will hopefully will have better cameras and the action button (which I use a ton).
 
I've been waiting 7 years for this device. Yes, I am very in.

Wish it were lighter. I have no other complaints.
