Apple’s entry into the foldable phone market is a long -awaited development. While Samsung and other manufacturers take big steps in this field, Apple’s plans are gradually becoming clear. Finally, some new details have been shared about the price and features of the foldable iPhone model.

It can be expensive than expected

According to the latest information, the price of Apple’s foldable iPhone model, similar to previous claims will be at the level of $ 2,000. However, according to Barclays Bank’s investor reports, this figure may be up to $ 2,300. This price is quite high compared to existing foldable phones. Can Apple be successful in the market with this price policy? Likewise, Apple Vision Pro, which made a price of $ 3,500, was also below expectations for the company.

The success of the foldable iPhone will depend not only on the hardware but also the software experience. So much so that according to Gurman, Apple should use the advantages of the big screen better. In particular, a hybrid version of iOS and iPados, a multi -window support, and a structure that will offer the best iPhone experience ever, may attract users.

According to Jeff PU, Apple is now testing the foldable iPhone at the “new product presentation (NPI)” stage at Foxconn. According to the calendar, mass production will start in the second half of 2026, which strengthens the possibility of releasing the device at the end of 2026 or at the beginning of 2027.

Foldable iPhone expected features

Apple has adopted an approach similar to the Galaxy Z Fold series for the first foldable iPhone model. The device will be 9-9.5 mm when it is folded and 4.5-4.8 mm thick when it is turned on. On the screen side, 7.8 -inch internal screen and 5.5 -inch exterior screen will be included. Finally, Apple is said to use liquid metal in hinge design. This will significantly increase its durability.
