Rumors claim foldable Apple products could dominate the second half of the 2020s, leveraging new screen technology to make devices such as the iPad even more portable.
Analyst Jeff Pu has been a leading advocate for a foldable tablet, expecting to see the so-called iPhone Fold debut in late 2026. This would be followed by iPads that use the same screen technology a year or so later.
Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman, however, expects the Fold to appear in 2027, alongside folding iPads. Gurman has previously reported that Apple continues to plan for foldable devices as well as robotic devices to finally begin arriving in the latter half of the 2020s.
Meanwhile, some rumors have suggested that the first popular foldable might actually be a future iPad mini.
