Apple Reportedly Preparing Foldable iPhone for 2026 Launch

The foldable device is expected to feature a book-style design, advanced technologies from the iPhone 17 Air, and a premium price tag with limited initial availability.

Apple's first foldable iPhone is expected to launch in 2026, according to reports from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman and analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
The device will reportedly feature a book-style design, similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold series, with a 5.5-inch outer display and a 7.8-inch inner display.
The foldable iPhone is said to incorporate technologies from the upcoming iPhone 17 Air, including a thinner chassis and potentially a custom 5G modem.
Pricing for the foldable iPhone is expected to range between $2,000 and $2,500, reflecting its premium positioning in the market.
Initial production constraints are likely to limit availability, with improvements anticipated over time as Apple scales production.
