Though the latest iPhones have just hit stores, buzz about next year’s lineup is already starting. Mark Gurman from Bloomberg recently shared exciting details about a potential foldable iPhone set for release next year.
Gurman suggests that this foldable model might resemble two iPhone Airs side-by-side. He described it as a “technical marvel” with a sleek titanium frame. This design could mark a significant leap in smartphone technology, making it thinner and more durable. Many fans believe that the iPhone Air was a trial run for this foldable device.
Interestingly, while there have been hints about manufacturing in India, Gurman claims that China will still play a major role in production. The potential price tag for this foldable iPhone could be around $2,000, aligning with earlier reports suggesting a range of $2,100 to $2,300.
As for when we’ll see this innovative device, it’s likely to launch in fall 2026, possibly alongside the iPhone 18 lineup. Similar launches in the past, like the iPhone X in 2017, suggest we might see an October or November reveal, even if the official announcement happens in September.
Foldable phones are gaining traction, with a recent survey showing a 25% increase in consumer interest in these models compared to last year. As we look ahead, Apple’s foldable offering might just change the game in the smartphone market.
