The foldable iPhone will cost over $2,000.

According to a report from analyst Ming Chi Kuo, the foldable iPhone model will have an approximately 7.8-inch "unfolded" display on the inside and a 5.5-inch display on the outside.

Reportedly, the foldable iPhone will have a thickness of 9 to 9.5mm when folded and 4.5 to 4.8mm when unfolded. It will use a titanium aluminum casing with a hinge made of stainless steel and titanium aluminum. The back will feature a dual camera setup, while the front will have only a single camera.

The foldable iPhone will cost over $2,000.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also suggests that the foldable iPhone will eliminate Face ID facial recognition. Instead, the device will use a Touch ID sensor on the side to save internal space. Notably, it is also considered an AI phone, as the larger screen offers better AI multitasking capabilities.

Apple is believed to have been working on developing foldable iPhone models for at least nine years, even having ideas for iPhones with rollable screens. Importantly, Apple wants these screens to be functional and resistant to impact damage.

Recently, Apple was granted a patent titled "Electronic devices with a flexible display casing," claiming that the company has found a method of combining rigid and flexible areas for the display so that it can self-heal.

Accordingly, Apple will use a display that can extend along its bending axis to facilitate bending without damage. Apple claims the display can span the entire device and it could be made from three elements. Two of the three elements would be fixed, conventional displays, and the third would be a flexible part that connects them all together.

It is known that this flexible layer may include an elastic layer, and this is the self-healing element. The elastic material can stretch but can return to its original shape on its own (similar to the mattress material used in homes).

With this technology, Apple could apply it to its devices, not just phones.

According to a report from analyst Jeff Pu, Apple will begin mass production of foldable iPhones by the end of 2026.

According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the model will launch around the end of 2026 or the beginning of 2027 with a price tag of over $2,000.
