Overview

• Apple’s iPhone Fold prototype features a 7.8-inch crease-free inner OLED, a 5.5-inch cover screen, an A20 Pro chip, 12 GB of RAM and dual 48 MP rear cameras.
• The device relies on Samsung Display’s flexible OLED panels and Fine M-Tec’s laser-drilled metal-plate hinge design to uniformly disperse stress and prevent screen creasing.
• UBS analysts estimate a retail price of $1,800–$2,000 with a bill of materials near $759 and predict Foxconn and Luxshare will handle manufacturing.
• Samsung has filed a Galaxy Z TriFold trademark, is validating Snapdragon 8 Elite internals, and plans an inward-fold, dual-hinge tri-fold debut in October 2025 in select markets.
• Tecno’s Phantom Ultimate G Fold concept showcases a G-shaped inward tri-fold with a 9.94-inch display, dual hinges and a 5,000 mAh battery but will remain a trade-show model.
