Apple has begun developing a small foldable iPhone: expected to be released in 2026
Apple is expected to launch its first foldable iPhone in 2026, officially entering the foldable mobile phone field.
According to reports, Apple has been developing a foldable screen smartphone that folds up and down since 2024, and its size when unfolded is similar to that of the existing iPhone.
In fact, in recent years, Apple has been applying for patents related to foldable products. In 2024, it began to develop foldable screen mobile phones and signed a panel supply contract with Samsung Display (SDC).
Considering that Apple usually takes two years to develop new products, the foldable iPhone is expected to be launched in 2026.
Apple executives have previously revealed that the foldable iPhone is expected to be thinner and lighter than competing models, and that internal goals also include avoiding crease problems.
Apple has previously been exposed to a folding screen patent called “electronic device with a flexible display cover layer”. The screen is covered with a layer of “self-healing” material to reduce creases/scratches.
