Foldable phones have been commercially available for the past seven years. However, this product line still has many limitations, such as screens being easily damaged when folded due to dust accumulation or a crease appearing in the middle of the screen when unfolded.

Apple is said to have completely resolved the issue of the crease on foldable iPhones (Image: 9to5mac).
A recent report from 9to5mac indicates that Apple has thoroughly addressed these issues on its first foldable iPhone.
Numerous leaks reveal that Samsung is the exclusive supplier of foldable displays for this product line. However, Apple is believed to have been heavily involved in the design of the display panel and folding mechanism to completely eliminate creases on the screen.
Accordingly, the panel structure, material processing procedures, and multi-layer screen lamination methods were all developed by Apple. To date, the company has moved on to the second stage of production, known as the Engineering Verification Testing (EVT) stage.
Another source indicates that HonHai Group has established a separate production line for the foldable iPhone. This suggests that the foldable iPhone has passed the testing phase and entered the technical inspection and pre-production process.
Typically, Apple creates around 100 prototypes at this stage for device testing.
According to estimates by analyst Arthur Liao from Fubon Research, the foldable iPhone will cost $2,399. Fubon Research believes that the display panel and hinge will push the product's price higher than market expectations.

The report estimates that Apple could sell around 5.4 million foldable iPhones by 2026. The device is predicted to be called the iPhone Fold. While global smartphone demand may decline, foldable phones will become the "only bright spot" in the market.
A source from South Korea revealed that Apple is testing a battery with a capacity of 5,400-5,800mAh. This battery capacity is significantly higher than the 5,088mAh in the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Meanwhile, Instant Digital claims that the battery in the foldable iPhone will definitely have a capacity of over 5,000mAh.
