iPhone Fold Rumors Are Heating Up, But I’m Not Buying One. Here’s Why

Samsung foldables have been around for years, but later this year, they might face some real competition from Apple. The company is reportedly prepping three high-end products, including an iPhone that folds and unfolds. Rumors tip a crease-free display, in-display sensors, and a price tag of at least $2,000 (but possibly $2,400). That would be an increase over Samsung’s $1,999 Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Google’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold, which starts at $1,799.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the phone’s outer display would measure 5.5 inches. But unfold the phone, and you’ll see a 7.8-inch display. Think of it as a phone that transforms into an iPad mini when unfolded. It would use a book-style design that opens horizontally, rather than a clamshell that folds and unfolds vertically like a flip phone.
