What's this about?
The iPhone Duo has an impressively minimal crease, but that's only how it looks at the start. We'll have to wait a while to see what develops over time.

Panel 1
Alex (holding a mock-up iPhone Duo) Sam (deadpan)
Alex: Hey Sam! Have you noticed how the crease on this iPhone Duo looks? It's practically invisible at first glance, just like magic. But the real magic starts after a while. Who knows what might develop over time? Who needs a crease anyway? It just adds character, you know? Maybe it'll evolve into something funny, like a pet snail that lives on the screen!
Sam: It's a crease, Alex. It's not going to disappear or develop into anything. It's going to be there for a long time.
Panel 2
Alex: Well, it's not like it's going to be a big deal. Who cares if it’s there or not? It's just a tiny line. We can always use a little more character, right? And who needs a crease when you can have a snail pet? I bet we'll all be laughing about it in a year or so.
Sam: Alex, I’m just saying it’s not going away. It’s not like we can change that overnight. It’s a crease. It’s permanent.
Panel 3
Robin (in the background, grinning)
Robin: Hey, guys! I’ve got a bet going on with my friends that the crease will still be there after a year. And I think I’m winning. You just can’t predict the iPhone Duo. Who knew a little crease could be so mysterious?
