Rumours surrounding the upcoming Apple iPhone Fold suggest the tech giant is moving in a bold new direction. While innovation is expected, leaked design details point toward a controversial setup that may alienate long-time fans. This potential shift represents a significant gamble for a company usually known for its seamless user experience.

According to a recent leak, Apple plans to use new Samsung technology to create a thinner and more luminous screen for the Apple iPhone Fold. This sophisticated hardware will likely feature in the iPhone 18 line and the Galaxy S26 series as well. Since these displays are so energy-efficient, they might even remove the requirement for bulky silicon-carbon batteries.
