The waning interest in foldable smartphones has stalled the growth of this new market. But that could soon change, when Apple launches its first Foldable iPhoneIn this article, we will take you on a quick and fun journey and learn how the foldable iPhone will play a vital role in reviving the foldable smartphone market, and how Apple will push competing companies to offer their best?
Foldable iPhone
There have long been rumors that Apple is working on the first foldable iPhone, and some analysts believe the company will finally launch its new device in September 2026.
In a report on the foldable smartphone market, famous display analyst Ross Young says that Apple is expected to enter the foldable phone market in the second half of 2026.
Young believes that Apple's dominant position in flagship smartphones will lead to significant growth in the foldable phone market in 2026, ultimately leading to a record year for foldable phones.
Despite the strong slowdown in this new market, Young expects more than 30% growth in the foldable phone market in 2026, followed by continued growth of 20% in 2027 and 2028. The credit for that goes to the iPhone maker.
Apple and the foldable phone market
Why Ross Young and industry experts believe Apple is the savior and can revive the foldable phone market after it completely stopped growing due to the decline in consumer confidence and interest in available phones.
The short answer is that when an iPhone maker enters a new market, it forces its competitors to innovate and develop faster. Apple sets new standards for quality and performance. This pushes competitors to offer more durable, innovative and high-quality foldable phones. So when the first foldable iPhone is revealed in two years, Apple will change the rules of the game for the better.
Finally, as for the specifications of the foldable iPhone, it is expected to come in a size between 7.9 and 8.3 inches. The device will most likely have a clamshell design similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip. The difference here is that Apple's foldable phone may fold in half vertically rather than horizontally, allowing the phone to be available at its full size when opened, then transform into a smaller device that can be put in a pocket when folded.

As Elon Musk moves to move humanity from the traditional infrastructure of smartphones and traditional classics, I remembered the competition between Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola on slide phones, foldable phones and volume levels. At that time, I went to buy a Nokia n95 and my brother bought a Motorola Razr v8. It was thin and made of metal. Apple is returning to the same area, trying to open old doors. Suddenly, Elon Musk launches a phone without a chip that works in all countries. It is thin, elegant and has new software. Elon Musk posted a mountain of iPhones on the x, as if he meant that soon the iPhones will be mountains in stores. Unfortunately, Apple lost to the creativity of OpenAi, and now it will lose to Tesla. I hope I do not see this day.
Welcome Arkan 🙋♂️, We can't forget the good old days we had with Nokia and Motorola, but as you know, time goes by and technology evolves. Elon Musk is already a tech pioneer 🚀! But let's not get ahead of ourselves and see how these changes will affect Apple. And of course, there is always room for innovation in the tech world! 😎📱
A question from outside: When I enter the App Store and want to update applications and programs
I do not get updates daily, and after two days, on the third day, all the updates appear, and it appears to me that this application, for example, has not been updated yet for three days, but the update was released three days ago. What is the solution and how do I fix it?
Hello Habbat Al Baraka! 🍏
It seems you are having trouble viewing updates in the App Store. It may be due to your automatic update settings. Try the following steps:
1- Go to “Settings”
2- Go to “Your Name” then “iTunes & App Store”
3- Make sure that the “App Updates” option is enabled.
If this option is enabled and the issue persists, it may be a good idea to restart your device or sign out of your Apple ID and then sign in again.
I hope this helps, and feel free to ask me if you have any more questions! 📱😉
I am really excited that Apple is downloading a foldable device because all devices have downloaded this device such as Samsung, Huawei, Shamil, and many well-known devices or companies. I heard information from Apple that it has tested 1000 devices for testing, and I really hope for this.
I don't like this idea.
But after the camera button, I am not surprised at anything.
Of course, there will be a big leap, especially because when Apple does something, it does it perfectly.
Great change, renewal and attention to everything 👍
I think the idea of a foldable iPhone is not very successful because Apple's capabilities are not suitable, like Android devices, which are more foldable than the iPhone, from my point of view.
Hi Abdulaziz 🙋♂️, I think you bring up an interesting point! Indeed, Android foldables have shown strength in this area, but we can't underestimate the power of Apple! 🍏 Apple always comes up with amazing innovations and designs and we can't exactly predict what Apple's vision for the foldable iPhone will be. It may come in an unexpected and completely new form. Let's wait and see! 😉📱
Oh Qabel “Lati” or “Air”, we are tired of waiting, hoping and wishing!
Hi MohammedJassim! 😄👋 I know waiting is annoying, but do you remember Beethoven’s famous quote “Patience is power”? 🎵🙌 Okay, maybe Beethoven didn’t say it, but it’s worth emphasizing! 😂 Let’s keep a few things in mind: If Apple is indeed making a foldable iPhone, they’ll want to make sure it’s worth every penny! 💰📱 Don’t worry, if there’s anything worth waiting for, it’s definitely going to be an Apple foldable iPhone! 😉💫
