First foldable iPad could be on the way — but you’ll have to wait a few years

IPhone Flip Concept.

Those of you eagerly awaiting a foldable iPad may have to wait another couple of years, at the very least. According to a report from The Elec, Apple could be considering a 2026-2027 launch window for the foldable tablet at the earliest. Which means it may take even longer to arrive in your local Apple Store. 

The site also suggests that the foldable iPad will unfold to reveal a 7- to 8-inch display, and could end up replacing the iPad mini one day. However it does note that an OLED iPad is in the works, and we’ve heard rumors that it could arrive sometime around 2026 as well. So if that replacement does happen, it probably won’t be soon after the foldable’s launch.
