Foldable iPhone could be released in 2026 – iPhone

Apple is likely preparing to enter the foldable device market much sooner than many expect.

The wait for the foldable iPhone is finally over It may turn out to be relatively short.According to press reports, Apple is preparing such a device, which could debut as early as 2026. If confirmed, it would be a major development for Apple, as it would be the company’s first attempt to introduce a device with a foldable screen and at the same time would be a milestone in the evolution of the iPhone.

You can expect the official unveiling of the new iPhone 16 series in a few months, while the iPhone 17 series will follow in 2025, when we might also see the first iPhone Ultra. But with eyes already on the distant future, the iPhone 18 lineup could also include a model with a foldable display.

It’s no secret that Apple has been considering a foldable iPhone for years, with rumors circulating for some time now. Previous reports have suggested that Apple was considering at least two design options, but Digitimes’ report claims that the company has now settled on a plan for bringing its proposal to market.

Meanwhile, information from various Korean press sites indicates that Apple officially began researching foldable technologies in 2024, when the relevant agreement was signed with Samsung. If the new model is confirmed to be launched in 2026, Apple will have recorded a two-year design and development cycle.

From what we’ve heard so far, Apple has opted for a clamshell design, which means the potential iPhone Fold will be quite reminiscent of existing proposals, such as the Motorola Razr or the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip. It’s estimated that when unfolded, the iPhone Fold will have dimensions similar to current iPhone models. However, it’s still unclear whether the iPhone Fold will feature a display on the device’s cover, as is the case with most similar designs already on the market.

Apparently, this isn’t the first time Apple has been rumored to be interested in such foldable devices. In the past, there have been rumors of a foldable iPad or even a MacBook, but if the report is confirmed, the iPhone will be the first to get such a model.

Although many reservations have been expressed about this technology, it is in fact gradually maturing, and offers attractive advantages, such as portability, and a larger screen in particular, but also a clever way to take pictures, by placing the device on the surface, in order to take advantage of the fixed base rear cameras.
