I've been waiting for this big move for 5 years! Apple’s first foldable device revealed: not an iPhone

According to news on February 23, the popularity of Android folding screen mobile phones is booming, but Apple has been standing still. What is its intention?

According to DigiTimes, as project work progresses, Apple is currently deciding on the design of its first foldable device, but it will not be rolled up with Android foldable screen phones.

DigiTimes cited supply chain sources in a paid report that Apple has been developing its first foldable product for at least five years. The foldable device will be a "bigger device," not an iPhone but a tablet or laptop.

It is said that the design work of the device is currently underway ahead of mass production plans.

In recent years, as the hinge mechanisms of foldable devices have become more and more advanced, the main problem solved by Apple's foldable devices has become developing panels that meet their quality requirements.

The report adds that Apple’s rumored pause in Samsung’s foldable display panel development and internal reorganization to shift Vision Pro engineers to the foldable project are not inconsistent as the company absolutely prioritizes quality.

The report also clarified that Apple has not suspended work on foldable devices and that the company now has multiple departments responsible for different foldable product lines. Apple's first foldable device won't be launched until 2025 at the earliest.
