Apple says it will have “limited” iPhone Duo models for sale in stores, according to a report from Reuters. The iPhone Duo launches on Friday, October 23rd, but online preorders quickly sold out, with some delivery estimates extending into next year.

The iPhone Duo is Apple’s first foldable, offering a 5.4-inch outer display and 7.6-inch inner screen. It starts at $1,999, and recent reports have suggested that the company might not have enough to make available in stores on a walk-in basis. As reported by MacRumors, customers in Japan, South Korea, and the United Arab Emirates can only get the device with a pickup reservation.

“The pre-order demand for iPhone Duo, our first foldable iPhone, has been nothing short of extraordinary,” Apple said in response to sold-out preorders last week. “We are working hard to get this revolutionary new product into customers’ hands as quickly as possible, and we will continue accepting orders online.”

Apple didn’t immediately respond to The Verge’s request for comment.
