New leak suggests Apple’s foldable iPhone pushed back to early 2027
We have heard quite a bit about a foldable iPhone, with the latest info dropping just a few days back. A leak of what is supposed to be an Apple product roadmap hinted at a foldable iPhone arriving in 2026. However, now it seems like the same source has different info.

Revegnus, a renowned leaker, shared on X that, according to a senior official familiar with Apple's internal affairs, the debut of the first foldable iPhone has been delayed. It is now anticipated to launch in early 2027.


The source apparently mentioned:

So, based on this leak, it seems like a foldable iPhone is still quite a way off. Assuming, of course, it even becomes a reality, especially given previous rumors that suggested it might not happen. 

However, it is increasingly probable that we will see a foldable iPhone down the line, given the mounting rumors supporting the idea. One rumor even suggests that Apple might redirect its Vision Pro team to work on a foldable iPhone project.

The foldable smartphone market has been expanding in the past few years, with an increasing number of manufacturers jumping into the fray. Samsung led the charge with its first foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold, launched five years ago. Since then, other players like Honor, Huawei, OnePlus, and Google have also joined the foldable trend.

Yet, if this latest leak turns out to be accurate, we will have to wait almost three more years to see Apple's first entry into the foldable market. And it actually might not even be an iPhone at all, as rumors also suggest that Apple's first foldable screen may go in the iPad mini for the iPhone's 20th anniversary. Stay tuned for updates as the future of the foldable iPhone is as dynamic as the unfolding of a mystery novel.
