- More folding iPhone details have been leaked
- We have more clues about prices and battery capacity.
- The phone could be released next year
We are getting closer and more so that the folding iPhone is a real device instead of a rumored, and the new leaks suggest that the phone will establish two albums for the Apple smartphone series to date.
These leaks come from Tipster Dingzhuo Digital and Mydrivers (through WCCFTECH). Keep in mind that we trust the Google translator here, and that nothing is safe until Apple makes the device official (which will probably be next year).
First, the folding iPhone apparently will have the largest battery of any iPhone to date, with this filtration that puts the capacity of 5,000-5,500 mAh. As a comparison, the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max that was launched last September with a 4,685 mAh battery.
We will have to see how that works in terms of real battery life among the charges. The folding iPhone, of course, will have two screens that need food, and a larger screen to illuminate when it does not open (which could be 7.74 inches, corner to corner).
Paying the price
The second part of this leak is the price of this device, and it is not surprising that the folding iPhone is the most expensive iPhone in history, far exceeding the initial price of the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which is established at $ 1,199 / £ 1.199 / Au $ 2,149.
This leak puts the price at more than 15,000 yuan in China. That works as $ 2,090 / £ 1,560 / au $ 3,205 with a conversion of approximate currency to today’s rates, but it is unlikely that they are the final figures in which Apple is resolved internationally.
The previous rumors have placed the price of the folding iPhone somewhere between $ 1,800 and $ 2,500, depending on the informants and analysts you want to believe. Whatever the final figure, you will certainly have to pay a lot for this phone.
However, before obtaining the folding iPhone, we will obtain the iPhone 17 series, which will include the iPhone 17 air instead of the iPhone 16 Plus. If Apple adheres to its usual schedule, we should see those phones in September.
