Overview

• Multiple sources including TrendForce and Ming-Chi Kuo expect Apple to roll out its first foldable iPhone in the second half of 2026.
• Leaks indicate the device will feature a 7.8-inch internal OLED display and a 5.5-inch external cover screen, both smaller than Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7.
• A laser-drilled metal plate under the inner display alongside a hybrid titanium-stainless steel hinge is expected to disperse bending stress and prevent creasing.
• The phone is tipped to have a titanium frame, two rear cameras, a front selfie camera, and a Touch ID sensor built into the power button instead of Face ID.
• U.S. pricing is estimated between $1,800 and $2,000, positioning the model at the ultra-premium end of the market.
