Apple won't have an answer to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, Flip 5, until 2026 "at the earliest"

Foldable iPhone concept

Foldables are becoming a permanent part of the smartphone landscape, but it looks like Apple isn't joining the 'fold' anytime soon. In a report from the DigiTimes seen by iMore, "A supply chain source revealed it has been developing foldable iPhones with Apple for years but has yet to start mass production. It added that the chances of launching a foldable iPhone in 2024 are slim."

The report goes on further to say that iPhones are unlikely to be the first devices to feature a foldable screen, with the two most likely to be the iPad and MacBook lines. that factors in pretty well to what we've heard already, but in the face of Samsung's latest product launch today it feels disappointing that Apple is so far behind in the space.
