Apple is reportedly working on a clamshell foldable iPhone that will be released in 2026.
If you’ve been hoping for a foldable iPhone, you might be happy to hear that such a device could be released as soon as 2026 according to a new report by The Information. The phone will feature a clamshell form factor similar to the Motorola Razr models and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series. The iPhone „Flip“ reportedly carries a codename of v68 and when open it will keep the design and dimensions of a non-foldable iPhone handset.
Besides The Information, Digitimes has also posted information about a foldable iPhone today citing fresh reports from Hankooki and ET News. Those outlets relayed info from sources who said that Apple had started R&D on a clamshell foldable iPhone this year. The articles say that Apple has signed a deal with Samsung to supply them with the foldable panels for the phone which is something that we told you about back in May.
