Those prices include VAT (MwSt). Telekom's iPhone Duo page lists the 256GB model's total device price as €2,299 including MwSt, and its storage surcharges of €250, €750 and €1,500 land exactly on the 512GB, 1TB and 2TB prices above.

Going from 256GB to 2TB adds €1,500. More on picking a tier in the storage tier price guide.

Paying over time and trading in at Apple Germany

As of Nov 7, 2026, Apple Germany offers 24 monthly installments at 0% effective annual interest through Openbank Pay By Santander, with no deposit: €95.79 (256GB), €106.21 (512GB), €127.04 (1TB) or €158.29 (2TB) a month. Apple says that after 11 installments you can upgrade at no additional cost.

Apple Trade In gives €30 to €1,020 in credit, per Apple's iPhone Duo store page. Check Apple's checkout for current financing and trade-in terms before you pay.

Launch date and delivery waits

Apple's announcement lists Germany among the more than 70 countries and regions where pre-orders opened at 5 am PT on Friday, Oct 16, with availability from Friday, Oct 23. That's 14:00 in Germany, per netzwelt's and Trending Topics' reports.

Delivery dates slipped almost at once. Macwelt reported on Oct 28 that Apple's earliest delivery date reached Jan 25, 2027 within 30 to 60 minutes of pre-orders opening, and hadn't moved since. The same report says Apple restocks German stores for in-store pickup, but that most restocked units are reserved within 20 minutes.

Apple's German store now shows delivery dates only at checkout, and it offers free shipping and store pickup.

t3n reported on Oct 27 that MediaMarkt and Saturn showed similar waits.

Which German carriers sell iPhone Duo?

Carrier offers change often, so every figure below is as of Nov 7, 2026, unless another date is given. Check the carrier's page before you sign.

Telekom, o2, Vodafone and 1&1 all sell it on their own sites. o2 and 1&1 require a tariff (Vodafone too, per Macwelt), while Macwelt says Telekom sells it with or without one.

• Telekom: Telekom's iPhone Duo page pairs the 256GB Night Sky model with MagentaMobil M (50GB) at €49.95 a month on a 24-month contract, plus a one-time €39.95 per-card setup fee. Telekom offers the device on 0% installments with a down payment and up to 36 monthly payments, and its Rückgabedeal lets you decide at the end whether to return the phone or pay the final installment. The page quotes a delivery time of 10 to 12 weeks, and lists Insure MyMobile cover at €13 (M) or €15 (L) a month.
• o2: o2's official news post from Oct 16 says pre-orders opened in the o2 online shop in Star White and Night Sky, with sales and deliveries from Oct 23. o2's product page couldn't be read for prices. Macwelt reported on Oct 28 that o2 required a tariff and quoted one to two weeks for the 256GB model.
• Vodafone: Vodafone's iPhone page lists the Duo at €2,299.90 (256GB), €2,549.90 (512GB), €3,049.90 (1TB) and €3,799.90 (2TB), with installments over 12, 24 or 36 months. It gives no delivery time and doesn't say the Duo is tariff-only. Macwelt reported on Oct 28 that Vodafone sold the Duo only with a tariff, with delivery estimates ranging from Nov 19 to Jan 8 depending on model.
• 1&1: 1&1's iPhone Duo page says it sells iPhone Duo only with a 1&1 contract, from €77.99 a month including All-Net-Flat S, with delivery quoted at 2 to 3 weeks (3 to 4 weeks for some options).

Carrier contracts can lower the upfront cost, but Telekom's example ties you to a 24-month tariff. If you'd rather keep your current plan, buying the Duo outright and adding an eSIM is the simpler route. More options are in where to buy iPhone Duo.

eSIM only: what German carriers say

Apple's announcement says iPhone Duo uses an eSIM-only design worldwide, so there's no SIM tray and you'll need an eSIM from your carrier.

o2's iPhone Duo eSIM guide is the most detailed carrier page found. o2 says you can pick an eSIM at checkout on a new contract, existing customers can order one in the Mein o2 app or account, and an o2 eSIM can be moved from an older iPhone during setup, after which it's deactivated on the old phone. o2 also says the Duo supports dual SIM with two eSIMs, with only two active at a time.

Vodafone's iPhone page says the Duo supports only eSIM and has no SIM card slot, and 1&1's Duo page lists eSIM as the supported SIM type. Telekom's iPhone Duo page makes no eSIM statement.

Coming from Android? Apple's support document on transferring an eSIM from Android lists Telekom and 1&1 as the supported carriers in Germany. If your carrier isn't listed, Apple says to contact it to activate your eSIM. See the guides on switching from Android and moving an eSIM between iPhones.

AppleCare+ and repair costs in Germany

As of Nov 7, 2026, Apple's German AppleCare page lists AppleCare+ with theft and loss for iPhone Duo at €20.99 a month or €209.99 a year. It's the only AppleCare+ plan Apple Germany shows for the Duo, and Apple's store page says the price includes 19% insurance tax.

As of Nov 7, 2026, Apple's German repair page lists these fees with AppleCare: €0 for the battery, €19 for the inner display's cover layer, €29 for the outer display or back glass, €99 for the inner display, €99 for other accidental damage and €129 for theft or loss. iphone-ticker.de says Apple covers theft or loss at most twice in 12 months.

Without AppleCare+, the same Apple page lists estimated out-of-warranty fees, also as of Nov 7, 2026: €1,149 for the inner display, €489 for the outer display, €219 for back glass, €629 for the outer display plus back glass, €55 for the cover layer, €269 for the battery, €269 for the rear camera and €1,719 for other damage. Apple says it examines the device to set the final fee. iphone-ticker.de's repair report and PC Games Hardware list the same out-of-warranty figures.

US fees are covered in Apple's iPhone Duo repair costs. Whether the plan pays off is in is AppleCare+ worth it.

Apple's warranty and your legal rights in Germany

Apple's German warranty terms describe a one-year limited warranty from the original purchase date and call it a voluntary manufacturer's guarantee. Apple says it grants rights in addition to statutory consumer rights, doesn't limit them, and that consumers can still use their rights under §§ 434 ff. and 474 ff. of the German Civil Code (BGB).

Apple's warranty page doesn't state how long those rights last. Under BGB § 438, claims for defects in goods generally expire two years after delivery, and you make them against the seller, not Apple, unless Apple sold you the phone. BGB § 433 puts the duty to deliver goods free of defects on the seller.

Bottom line

As of Nov 7, 2026, iPhone Duo in Germany starts at €2,299 for 256GB at Apple, VAT included, and runs to €3,799 for 2TB. Telekom, o2, Vodafone and 1&1 all sell it, and delivery quotes range from 2 to 3 weeks at 1&1 to 10 to 12 weeks at Telekom, so compare before you order. Buying elsewhere?
