Amidst all the ongoing rumours related to the iPhone 17 series, we’ve got a fresh update for you. In a report published by Digitimes, it has been revealed that the iPhone Fold entered its prototype testing phase in June. Considering the information coming from supply chain sources, Apple already has a functioning prototype of its first foldable device. Speculations are that the prototype testing stage of the device will conclude by the end of 2025. Right after that, the phone will move to the Engineering Verification Test (EVT) phase. If things work seamlessly along with no delays then we will most probably get to see iPhone Fold in 2026 alongside the iPhone 18 series. Furthermore, it has also been shared in the report that Apple has put a stop to the development of foldable iPad because of issues in manufacturing and not-so-impressive consumer demand. Apple iPhone Fold: Expected Specifications And Pricing The Apple iPhone Fold leaks reveal that the foldable device could sport a Samsung-made 7.8-inch primary OLED display with a high refresh rate. It will get an under-display camera along with a side-mounted touch. One thing which is pretty contradictory to Apple’s way of working is that the foldable will miss out on the face ID. Apple will bring an ‘almost invisible’ crease which will make the effect thickness of the device stay between 9 to 9.5mm in the fold state. Another leak related to the phone has stated that the foldable phone will pack a titanium alloy chassis coupled with a liquid metal hinge. Coming to the pricing, you cannot expect it to be priced on the lower side. Chances are that the device will be launched somewhere around $2300 which roughly converts to 1,97,000. Until now, nothing has been confirmed by Apple officially. So, the readers are suggested to take the information with a truckload of salt.
