Apple has not yet formally disclosed its intentions to enter the foldable smartphone market, which is presently dominated by Samsung. With a price tag of $3,500, the highly anticipated Vision Pro headset from Apple is one of the business's priciest offerings. As a result, most experts project that the company will sell less than 1 million of these gadgets in their first year of release. It seems that CEO Tim Cook's business is still working to create a real foldable. According to a recent rumor, Apple appears to be attempting to keep up with the rapidly expanding foldable industry by developing two prototypes of foldable iPhones. It might not be released for another two years at the most, and it most likely won't happen until after the iPad folds. Yes, indeed you read it correct ! Additionally, the source verified that Apple is still developing an iPad that folds and has an 8-inch screen, similar to the iPad Mini that is available now. The current goal of the Apple engineers working on this project is to create a hinge that will lessen the crease seen in the center of the screen and enable the display to rest flat when unfurled.

How Realistic is this News ~ 

• It appears that the Apple team is quite worried about who is to blame for these phones' brittleness. If not, the design team is hoping to create a foldable iPhone that looks like the most recent Motorola Razr+ or Galaxy Z Flip and has external screens. However, it would also have to be quite tiny in order to fit inside pockets without taking up much room when folded. It's a challenging dilemma, given how difficult it is to reduce the size of the battery and display components.
• The project to create a foldable iPhone was put on hold by the corporation in 2020, but it has since resumed. If Apple is unable to come up with a really "Apple" solution for a foldable phone, there's also always a risk it would abandon development of the prototypes. The business is still looking for more "compelling features" that would make an Apple foldable a household name. In the next years, foldable iPads are more likely to become popular than iPhones. Apple appears to be highly keen on getting rid of the crease in the screen, since early models of the foldable iPad reportedly sported an 8-inch screen. It appears that Apple also wants the table to be able to rest perfectly flat. 

A Little Pricy Trend to Develop ~ 

The Cupertino, California-based startup is producing at least two width-folding prototypes. With Samsung's 2019 release of the Galaxy Fold, foldable smartphones have grown in popularity. Since then, OnePlus, Google, Xiaomi, Motorola, and more firms have released foldable smartphones. Foldable smartphones are still a small market, nevertheless, due to their higher price points, display fragility, and more maintenance expenses when compared to regular smartphones.

While we still have to wait and see how well that gadget sells, if sales are higher than anticipated, the business may have cause to believe that, for once, Apple fans would truly want something—you know—new.
