The iPhone Duo reportedly sold out within five minutes of going live on Blinkit, underscoring early interest in Apple’s first foldable smartphone. The quick-commerce platform launched the device at 8:15 AM on October 23, but the sale was restricted to customers in Delhi-NCR.
Blinkit’s founder confirmed the rapid sellout in a post on X, saying all available units sold out within five minutes. He also said the company was working to secure additional stock in the coming weeks.
However, the announcement did not reveal how many smartphones were in the initial batch.
This means the five-minute sellout confirms that the available inventory was exhausted quickly. Still, it doesn’t show how many customers tried to buy the device or how strong overall demand is.
The iPhone Duo sold out in five minutes after going live on Blinkit, showing strong early interest in Apple’s first foldable phone.
The quick-commerce platform started selling it at 8:15 AM on October 23. Only customers in Delhi-NCR could buy it.
Blinkit’s founder posted on X to confirm the sellout, saying every available unit sold out within five minutes. He also said the company is trying to restock in the next few weeks.

Apple iPhone Duo Sold Out on Blinkit in Five Minutes
The launch happened at 8:15 AM, and every available item was gone by 8:20 AM. Blinkit has not said how many items it had for the launch, so the number is unknown.
The company said that it is trying to bring units to the platform in the next few weeks.
However, there is no confirmed sale date, and it is unclear whether Blinkit will carry the device in other cities.
The quick sellout has also raised questions about how available Apple’s first foldable smartphones are in India. Reports before the launch said initial supplies were limited and that interest in the device was high.
Internet Reacts to the Quick Sellout
The reported five‑minute sellout has sparked online reactions, especially since the iPhone Duo starts at almost Rs3 lakh in India.
Some users said they were surprised by how fast the sale happened, and one reaction called it proof that India’s a “rich nation.”
Others questioned how many units Blinkit offered, saying a small first batch could sell out fast without showing huge demand.
The debate shows how hard it is to judge a sellout announcement without inventory numbers. A product that sells out fast can mean interest, but the result also depends on how many units were there, how the stock was spread, and whether customers could buy it.
For now, Blinkit’s announcement shows that its first iPhone Duo stock in Delhi‑NCR ran out in minutes. It doesn’t say how many buyers there were or how demand compares with other premium smartphones.
