Apple is reportedly gearing up to launch two new foldable devices in 2026, marking its entry into the foldable gadgets market. According to Jeff Pu, an analyst at Haitong International Securities Group, the tech giant will first release a foldable iPad/MacBook hybrid in the second quarter of 2026. This innovative device, which has been under development for some time now, is expected to feature an impressive 18.8-inch display when unfolded.
Foldable iPhone to follow hybrid iPad/MacBook
Following the release of the foldable iPad/MacBook hybrid, Apple plans to launch a foldable iPhone later in 2026. The new foldable iPhone is speculated to flaunt a top-down folding design, similar to Samsung's Galaxy Flip series. Reports indicate that Apple has signed a supply deal with Samsung for its foldable iPhone, which is internally referred to as the V68.
Foldable iPhone development progresses
The development of Apple's foldable iPhone has reportedly advanced beyond the conceptual stage. The tech giant has approached Asian suppliers to manufacture components for the device. However, there has been no official confirmation from Apple regarding these developments. Until an official announcement is made, all information remains speculative.
