Apple is rumored to be finally stepping into the foldable smartphone game next year – we’ll be calling its first such device the iPhone Fold but don’t take this for granted, we don’t really know the name yet.
Today in China, the prolific leaker who goes by Digital Chat Station on Weibo has revealed the iPhone Fold’s screen sizes. The inner, folding display is allegedly going to be 7.7″, while the cover screen will be 5.5″. That implies quite a different aspect ratio from what we’re used to in the Android world.
It’s definitely not going to be the biggest book-style foldable around, that’s for sure, but Apple will undoubtedly emphasize its better pocketability and usability with one hand in its marketing materials.
DCS also once again confirms the 2026 release of the device. Past rumors have claimed that the device has already entered prototype testing, with a functioning prototype already created. It may or may not sport an under-display selfie camera for the folding screen, but has been consistently rumored to have a practically crease-free design.
This is allegedly the main reason why Apple took so long to join the foldable game – its pursuit of a creaseless screen, and Samsung Display has now finally obliged.
