Apple Set to Launch Foldable iPhone in 2026
Apple is addressing criticism of lacklustre innovation by introducing new devices. Rumours suggest a foldable iPhone 16 could be on the horizon, potentially launching in 2026.
Observers anticipate the iPhone Air to be a precursor to a foldable model. Despite past rumours, this time there's concrete evidence. Samsung's display chief revealed a new order for foldable smartphone displays from an unnamed North American customer, widely believed to be Apple. Industry insiders assume this is for Apple's rumoured iPhone Fold, set to launch in autumn 2026.
Foldable smartphones have struggled due to high prices. Apple is not expected to buck this trend, with its foldable iPhone unlikely to be cheap. However, Apple's strong sales, including the iPhone 17, suggest it can afford to price its foldable model high. Apple and Samsung, despite being competitors, have a history of component purchases from each other.
Apple is set to introduce a new device category in 2026, likely a foldable iPhone 16. Despite past rumours, this time there's evidence to suggest it's happening. Apple's strong sales and pricing strategy indicate it's ready to take on the foldable smartphone news, despite its challenges.
