Apple’s newly launched foldable iPhone Duo draws complaints from some left-handed users, who say the device is “pretty much unusable.” In posts on the social platform X, users describe difficulties using the phone’s controls and layout when handled in a left-handed orientation.

The reports share the same core claim: that the foldable design functions less conveniently for left-handers than for right-handed users. One outlet frames the reaction with a suggestion about the size of the impacted user group, while both sources focus primarily on user comments rather than independently verified testing or confirmed company statements. Neither source provides Apple’s response or technical details resolving the issue. As a result, the accounts are largely based on individual experiences posted publicly.

No shared evidence is presented across the articles regarding the scope of the problem, whether it is a design flaw, or how Apple addresses the concerns.
