Reports say that Apple may finally be getting serious about a folding iPhone model. — AP
I’ve generally ignored reports that Apple is quietly working on a folding iPhone, because, well, why wouldn’t they be? The form factor is clearly popular with many people – Samsung’s foldables are now onto their sixth generation – and the R&D department at a company of Apple’s size will naturally be playing with a lot of speculative ideas at any given time. Many won’t go anywhere.
But now it does seem like the folding iPhone will be a thing. The Information reported yesterday that the idea has an internal codename (“V68”) and is in “development with suppliers”, with a view to a potential launch in 2026. Apparently Apple is still trying to make its design thinner, and to flatten the crease in the folding screen.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
