Apple limits iPhone Duo pre-orders to two units per customer globally

Apple is enforcing a limit of two iPhone Duo units per customer across its online stores globally, including the US, Japan, Spain, and the UK. This measure comes after unprecedented demand for the device, which has already led to shipping delays extending into 2027. While the exact timing of the limit is unclear, some customers were reportedly able to pre-order more than two units initially. It remains to be seen how Apple will prevent customers from circumventing this limit through multiple accounts. AI
