Apple is ramping up its work on foldable devices, according to a new note to investors seen 9to5Mac. The report, from Haitong International Securities analyst Jeff Pu, says Apple will begin mass production of a 20.3-inch foldable device in late 2025, followed by a foldable iPhone in late 2026.
Ming-Chi Kuo previously reported that Apple was working on a 20.3-inch foldable MacBook, targeting a release sometime in 2027. Ross Young also reported on Apple developing a 20-inch foldable hybrid, scheduled for release in 2026 Or 2027. Bloomberg Mark Gurman also said that Apple is “exploring a dual-screen, foldable MacBook/iPad hybrid.”
If today’s report from Pu is to be believed, Apple has “accelerated” its work on foldable devices. The report says there is “increasing visibility” of Apple’s foldable devices based on supply chain checks.
Bo says Apple’s foldable device will represent a “new Apple lineup” targeting the “ultra-sophisticated market.” Apple is reportedly exploring two screen sizes for the foldable iPhone: 7.9 inches and 8.3 inches.
Once again, the 20.3-inch “foldable” is claimed to begin mass production in late 2025. The foldable iPhone will follow in late 2026.
Take 9to5Mac
This is an incredibly aggressive timeline and has not been confirmed by other sources yet. I’ll take this with some skepticism for now. Still, it’s fun to imagine what a world in which Apple makes foldable devices might look like.
