A few days ago, we were discussed about Apple that Apple started producing its first-foldable device. In fact, according to analyst Jeff Pu, Apple’s foldable lineup will include not only one but two devices. He says that Apple is developing a foldable iPhone and a large foldable device, which is the possibility of a foldable iPad. However, now, according to his new report, the foldable iPad-shaped screen can run on Macos instead of iPados, potentially paves the way for the entry of Apple in the touchscreen Mac offering.

According to Pu, Apple is planning to develop two foldables, and the first foldable iPhone will get a 7.8-inch internal display. In his research note, Pu stated that the foldable iPhone device is currently in the new product introduction (NPI) stage in Foxconn, which is the primary manufacturing partner of Apple. The device was allegedly set to enter the initial prototype phase in April 2025, with large -scale production began in the second half of 2026.

Foldable iPhone rumors features

For many reproots, accoridng, foldable device, which can be an iPhone, is rumored to facilitate an 8-inch internal display, which will allow it to compete directly with the existing foldable smartphones from brands such as Samsung and Huawei.

On the other hand, the second foldable Apple device, 18.8-inch foldable display is called MacBook-IPAD Hybrid. This large device is expected to work as a touch-screen laptop form factor, which is potentially running Macos instead of iPados. Although these are speculation, if Apple actually introduces a foldable screen with Macos, it may eventually push the Apple towards bringing touchscreen into its MAC devices.

In particular, PU’s report aligns with a recent report by The Wall Street Journal, stating that Apple is planning two foldables for future release. The report mentions that these new foldables from Apple intend to work as a laptop. ” According to the report, one of the device may be the largest MacBook with a 19-inch screen, while the other will be a foldable iPhone with a large performance compared to the current iPhone 16 Pro Max, with a 6.9-inch screen.

In addition, the discussion around Apple’s foldables recently reinforced by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, who suggested in his latest power on the newsletter that 2025iOS 19 contains Apple’s software updates and MACOS 16COCOLDs are potentially laying groundwork for new hardware designs, including focal device and tissue mc Are. Their report shows that Apple’s ongoing efforts not only in hardware development, but also to ensure that its software can suit these new foldable designs.

While Apple’s report finally pushes its foldable lineup, is complicated, we should take these reports with a pinch of salt, because nothing has been confirmed by Apple. Although Apple is not completely silent on foldables, the company is filing various patents to bring its foldable display technology to life. So, Apple is definitely working on the foldable device, but when we are really looking at it will tell time from time to time.
