After Apple unveiled its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, the brand's official TikTok account has become a talking point. Over the past five days, Apple has posted multiple short-form videos daily, each showcasing the iPhone Duo's folding mechanism. One compares a hamburger folded in half, another plays on the device being mistaken for a laptop. The folding form factor has been turned into a meme.
Apple's TikTok team takes a different approach from traditional marketing. Instead of listing product specs, they unpack everyday scenarios with humor. A video titled 'Boyfriend Mode' shows someone propping up one screen during a video call while multitasking. Another labeled 'Promising Forever' recreates a proposal scene using the foldable angle. The meme grammar has been translated into product language.
It's rare to see Apple's once-lofty tone become this casual. The evolution of the device has reshaped the marketing method itself. TikTok as a platform demands short, repetitive rhythms, and Apple has followed that grammar precisely. The strategy here is to let usage scenarios become memes before the product itself does.
iPhone Duo users worldwide will keep an eye on this account. Apple is proving that a foldable form isn't just a tech spec—it can become a new content language. What kind of meme will you create with your iPhone Duo?
