Apple may be gearing up for its next major innovation: foldable devices. Reports from multiple sources on Sunday suggest that the tech giant is actively developing foldable versions of its iPhone and iPad.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Apple is working on two foldable models. The first is a larger device with a 19-inch screen that could rival desktop monitors or large tablets. The second is a smaller foldable iPhone, expected to feature a screen bigger than the iPhone 16 Pro Max when unfolded.
The development of these devices has reportedly been in progress for years, with the foldable iPhone potentially launching as early as 2026. However, delays could push its release to 2027.
Meanwhile, Bloomberg reports that Apple has been focusing primarily on the larger foldable device, described as a “giant iPad.” The company is also “exploring” the concept of a foldable iPhone. A key challenge Apple is addressing is eliminating the crease often seen on current foldable screens when they are fully opened. The team is reportedly making significant strides toward achieving a seamless display.
These developments indicate that foldable technology could be the next significant step for Apple’s product line, offering innovative solutions for portability and expanded functionality.
