The Zhitong Finance App learned that on Friday, Apple (AAPL.US) continued to rise by nearly 3% intraday and is now reported at $334.78. Apple's first folding screen iPhone was officially unveiled. Goldman Sachs believes that its pricing strategy and product design have exceeded expectations, are expected to open up the mass market, and have significant benefits for the Greater China supply chain.

Goldman Sachs pointed out that the new Apple folding phone is named “iPhone Duo,” and the starting price is 1999 dollars, which is lower than the starting price of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra in the US of 2099.99 US dollars. Goldman Sachs analysts Allen Chang, Verena Jeng, and others described this pricing as “affordable” (affordable), believing that Apple has achieved competitive pricing under the constraints of high memory costs and strong specifications, which is expected to attract a wider range of consumers.
