Recent reports indicate that Apple is in the works to develop a foldable iPhone, aiming to rival Samsung’s foldable phones that debuted in 2019. However, a recent report from DigiTimes suggests that Apple’s first crack at a foldable device might not be an iPhone after all.

According to DigiTimes, Apple has been tinkering with the idea of a foldable gadget for the past five years, but it won’t be a smaller-scale iPhone. Instead, it seems to be leaning towards something larger, possibly a tablet or even a laptop. While the report suggests that Apple is inching closer to mass production, the exact niche this device will occupy in Apple’s product lineup remains uncertain.
Speculation is rife that this new foldable contraption could either join the iPad family or spearhead an entirely fresh category for Apple. Regardless of its eventual classification, official details are likely to emerge soon.
Moreover, the report dispels rumors that Apple has abandoned its foldable ambitions. On the contrary, the tech giant seems steadfast in its pursuit, with plans to launch its inaugural foldable offering in 2025 or beyond. Although Apple’s pace may seem deliberate, it’s often well worth the wait as the company meticulously fine-tunes its products for optimal performance.
