Several companies have already developed foldable phones, but Apple has not yet released such an iPhone.
However, a recent report suggests that Apple’s first foldable iPhone could be launched in the second half of 2026. According to the DSC report, Apple’s first foldable iPhone will feature a book-style design, meaning users will be able to open and close the display like a book.
Earlier, it was expected that Apple would release a flip-style foldable iPhone, but this report indicates a different design.
The foldable iPhone will be larger, as the company believes that users prefer foldable phones with larger displays. According to the report, the first foldable iPhone could have a display size of 7.9 to 8.3 inches.
The report also mentions that the foldable iPhone will be equipped with a flexible OLED display, which will be durable enough to withstand thousands of openings and closings without damage.
It will feature a new, powerful processor, and the camera system will be top-notch.
With Apple entering the foldable smartphone market, there is an expected increase in sales of these devices. Demand for foldable phones has seen a slight decline in 2023 and 2024, but Apple’s entry could breathe new life into the market.
It is worth noting that Apple does not rush to adopt new technology but waits for it to improve. While foldable phones are being developed, many issues are still emerging with them.
