Apple Foldable Device
Since Apple is expected to release the Flip phones in 2026, there may be a major foldable surprise at the iPhone 18 launch event.
According to the most recent information, the Cupertino tech giant may introduce two foldables by 2026. This might include an iPad-Mac hybrid. It is stated that this new device has a massive 18.8-inch screen when it is unfolded. This will make it larger than the majority of laptops that are available in the market today.
The latest foldable Apple product’s specifications are provided by Haitong International Securities Group analyst Jeff Pu. Pu also states that the clamshell-style iPhone will launch after the iPad-Mac hybrid, which is expected to be the first Apple foldable to be launched in Q2 2026.
It’s been said that this year marks the beginning of the flip iPhone’s development. This means that the 2026 launch window may be accurate based on the two-year cycle. That being said, we are surprised to learn that Apple intends to launch its foldables line with a flip model rather than a fully functional fold.
