Detailed Leak Points to 2026 Debut for Apple's Rumored iPhone Fold

New renders and specs echo earlier reports, with pricing whispers around $2,000–$2,500 plus warnings of yield challenges that could constrain early supply.

Overview

  • Leaker Jon Prosser published 3D renders claiming a book‑style iPhone Fold with a ~5.5‑inch cover screen and a ~7.8‑inch inner display, measuring about 9 mm closed and ~4.5 mm open.
  • Prosser says Apple is targeting four cameras, black and white color options, a top‑mounted power button with Touch ID, and a C2 modem, though none of these details are confirmed by Apple.
  • The leak describes a proposed crease‑reduction approach using a metal plate to disperse pressure on the display plus liquid metal in the hinge.
  • Multiple outlets report a fall 2026 reveal alongside iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, with several reports suggesting Apple may skip a standard iPhone 18 that season.
  • Analyst and supply‑chain reporting continues to flag hinge and display validation risks, with expectations that early production yields could limit initial availability.
