Apple Reportedly Developing Foldable iPad and iPhone with Ambitious Designs

Reports suggest Apple is working on a foldable iPad with an 18.8-inch display and a foldable iPhone, targeting releases in the late 2020s.

Apple is reportedly developing a foldable iPad with an 18.8-inch display, expected to debut between 2028 and 2030, according to leaked documents and industry sources.
The foldable iPad is envisioned as a versatile device that could combine the portability of a tablet with the functionality of a laptop, appealing to both tablet and laptop users.
Speculation suggests Apple is also working on a foldable iPhone, potentially named the 'iPhone Fold,' with a larger display than the iPhone 16 Pro Max, targeting a release in 2026 or 2027.
Apple has reportedly been refining folding mechanisms and energy efficiency for these devices, learning from competitors like Samsung and OnePlus, which have already launched foldable products.
Key questions remain about the foldable iPad’s usability in tablet mode, compatibility with keyboard accessories, and potential updates to iPadOS to fully utilize the larger screen.
