Apple plans to release its inaugural foldable smartphone in 2026. The device will incorporate titanium construction and draw design elements from the iPhone Air series. Manufacturing will occur at Chinese facilities where Apple maintains established partnerships for complex products. The foldable model represents a premium showcase rather than a mass-market device.

Pricing estimates place the handset above $2,000, with projections reaching $2,300 for the base configuration. This cost structure makes the foldable variant the most expensive iPhone Apple has ever produced. The company follows a similar strategy used with the Vision Pro headset, testing market response before broader adoption. When closed, the device resembles a standard iPhone, yet unfolds to reveal an expanded display created by joining two ultra-thin panels. Production timing aligns with the iPhone 18 series launch, though potential delays may push availability into late 2026.
