CUPERTINO, Calif.—Apple is now in the foldable business. The company unveiled its first foldable iPhone Wednesday, a long-rumored device that pushes Apple into a new era and caps one of its most consequential product launches in recent memory.
In a packed Steve Jobs Theater, new chief executive John Ternus unveiled the foldable through a video presentation. The phone has a 7.6-inch display when opened and a 5.4-inch outer display when closed. It will also work with Apple Pencil, and it can be viewed in several display modes, including half-folded on a table. The announcement came nearly 20 years after Steve Jobs upended the consumer hardware space by introducing the world to the iPhone, propelling Apple to unprecedented heights. The iPhone Duo, when open, is 50% larger than Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro Max, which it also revealed Wednesday.
