iPhone Fold expected to launch in 2026 but ship in 2027, says Kuo
Apple’s first foldable iPhone may be announced before it’s actually ready to reach most customers. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says Apple is aiming to unveil the so-called iPhone Fold in the second half of 2026, likely around the usual fall iPhone event.
According to Kuo, the foldable model is running behind schedule due to low early production yields and other manufacturing problems. Because of that, he expects volume shipments to slip into 2027, even if Apple does show the device publicly in 2026.
