When Apple unveiled the foldable iPhone Duo on September 9, it announced that pre-orders would begin on October 16 and the phone would be released a week later on October 23. But Apple also said that it would allow consumers to start the pre-ordering process for the iPhone Duo a few days early, so that on October 16, those submitting a pre-order would be all set to go once the light turns green.
Some of you might have received an email to "Get Ready Now" for the iPhone Duo pre-order period to start
Apple is starting to send an email on Monday that is designed to help you prepare your iPhone Duo pre-order. The front page of the email says, "Take the express lane to checkout," adding, "The countdown to pre-order starts now. Choose iPhone Duo and speed through checkout on 10.16."

Underneath that is a blue pill-shaped button that says in white text "Get ready now." Below the button is a picture of the iPhone Duo with the internal display in the process of being opened. To start reserving your pre-order, tap on the blue button.
Choose your color, storage size, carrier, payment options, accessories and more for your iPhone Duo pre-order
The next page tells you that you can choose your new iPhone today and then "speed through checkout when pre-orders begin at 5 am PT on 10.16." You will continue through the pages, selecting your preferred model (in this case, the iPhone Duo) and confirming your carrier, selecting accessories and payment methods ahead of time.
Set up your pre-order now, and on October 16 you can submit your pre-order with a single tap
As soon as the iPhone Duo pre-orders go live on October 16, you will be able to submit your order with a single tap.

If you didn't receive the aforementioned email from Apple, you can still submit your pre-order registration through the Apple Store app (not the App Store). The Apple Store app is not pre-installed on your iPhone. To install it on your iPhone, simply tap on this link. It should be noted that the Apple Store app is not available for Android phones.
Once downloaded on your iPhone, open the Apple Store app and scroll down past the image of the iPhone Duo and tap the black "Get ready" button to go through the process of setting up your iPhone Duo pre-order
You will be asked to select the finish you want (Black or White) and the amount of storage you need:
256GB: $1,999 or 24 monthly payments of $83.29, or lease for $57.99/month for 24 months. 512GB: $2,199 or 24 monthly payments of $91.62, or lease for $63.80/month for 24 months. 1TB: $2,599 or 24 monthly payments of $108.29, or lease for $75.40/month for 24 months. 2TB: $3,199 or 24 monthly payments of $133.29, or lease for $92.81/month for 24 months.
You can also agree to trade in a phone and receive $35 to as much as $885. You'll also be prompted to select a carrier (from among Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile in the US). Next comes AppleCare options, including AppleCare+ with protection from theft and loss.
