- The iPhone fold could be an annual launch, from 2026
- This should see to take the place of the Pro Max as the launch of the upper annual iPhone
- Apparently, Apple is looking to stand out from other folding phones
It seems that Apple could be betting in the rumored iPhone fold, also known as the folding iPhone, because instead of being just a unique experiment, or an occasional launch as Apple’s models, a new report says there will be a new one every year.
According to the South Korean site, ET News (through Phone Arena), the first folding iPhone, which this site will land in 2026, will be the first of many, with the new type of telephone that will probably occupy the place of the Pro Max in the upper part of the iPhone line.
In addition to launching it as the most high -end iPhone, Apple also seeks to differentiate the folding iPhone of rivals such as the Samsung Galaxy Z fold 6. This report repeats previous rumors in saying that this could be achieved through a smaller screen fold and a better hinge.
The most expensive iPhone so far
Of course, folding phones are expensive, and if Apple places the folding iPhone on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, as is likely, then it could have an extremely high price.
In fact, a recent filtration suggested that the folding iPhone could cost between $ 2,100 and $ 2,500 (approximately £ 1,580- £ 1,730 / au $ 3,300-AU $ 3,630).
So, despite the fact that this phone will probably not land before 2026 (and possibly later, with some reports that point to 2027), you may want to save now, especially because this could become an annual release, which means that it could end up disburseing in a semi-regular way if you want your Apple hardware to remain updated.
