Apple prepares to produce iPhone Fold

Apple is getting closer to launching its foldable iPhone, tentatively called the iPhone Fold, after making significant progress in development.

After finalizing the crease-free display design earlier this year, Apple has completed the vapor chamber cooling system, a key element in the development of the iPhone Fold.

According to PhoneArena , the display was the main technical hurdle that Apple had to overcome on the iPhone Fold. Over the past two years, the company has rejected many hinge and panel designs to focus on a crease-free solution - a problem that Android phones have improved but have not yet completely solved.

The latest report shows that Apple has completed the screen design and moved to the pre-production stage, only needing a few more adjustments to start mass production of the iPhone Fold. Component suppliers are now ready to wait for a signal from Apple.

An interesting piece of information is that the iPhone Fold will be equipped with a vapor chamber cooling system similar to the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max to help control temperature in high-performance situations such as gaming or multitasking.

Apple sets high expectations for iPhone Fold sales

Apple is expected to ship 7 to 9 million iPhone Folds in the first year, a higher number than most Android-based foldable smartphones aim for. If Apple does indeed achieve this, the company's core partners like Samsung, TSMC, Foxconn, Shin Zu Shing, and Largan Precision will benefit.

To ensure the power of the iPhone Fold, Apple is said to equip the product with the A20 Pro chip based on the 2nm process. This is also the chip expected to be present on the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max models, promising to bring outstanding performance.

Despite being behind the curve, the iPhone Fold would be Apple’s most ambitious product since the Vision Pro, but the company will certainly be under a lot of pressure to get it right the first time.

Ultimately, the iPhone Fold is expected to cost between $1,800 and $2,500, making it the most expensive iPhone ever. The big questions surrounding the iPhone Fold now revolve around price, durability, and how the company positions the product compared to the regular iPhone 18 models. All of these will determine whether Apple helps redefine the foldable smartphone market.
