Samsung and Apple are two common brands that play a catfight to introduce new products and features to compete with each other. Now Apple will reportedly begin mass production of its first foldable iPhone in late 2026.
Apple is the toughest contender in the tech industry, but despite that, it has yet to introduce its first foldable device. Finally, it appears that Apple is conscious of debuting in the foldable market, as a report says Apple will begin mass production of its first foldable iPhone by the end of 2026.
On the other hand, Apple’s biggest rival, Samsung, is already about to debut its sixth-generation foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. An admirable fact is that, after facing tough challenges in China, Samsung is leading the global foldable market. But once Apple debuts in the foldable market, the Korean giant will undoubtedly have to face more challenges and fight for a leading position in the foldable market.
The competition is getting savage, and its peak could be seen when the first foldable iPhone hits the market. It is being reported by a tipter that Apple is set to start mass production of a foldable iPhone. Although Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo previously revealed that the company could introduce a 20.3-inch MacBook with a foldable display in 2027,.
Display supply chain insider Ross Young also pointed out Apple’s development of a 20-inch foldable hybrid device, set for a 2026 or 2027 release. A well-reliable source, Mark Gurman, also stated that he was “exploring a dual-screen, foldable MacBook/iPad hybrid.” If the reports are to be believed, Apple has “accelerated” its work on foldable devices. It is also reported that Apple is exploring 7.9-inch and 8.3-inch screen sizes for a foldable iPhone.
Samsung plans to expand its flagship Galaxy S series by launching the next-generation Galaxy S25 series early next year, promising a mesmerizing novelty known as Battery AI.
It has already been reported that the Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to come with no battery or charging upgrades, as compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which has a 5000mAh battery capacity. By this prospect, the Galaxy S25 is expected to have a 5000mAh battery, which somehow is quite disappointing. Although the brand has yet to unveil the battery specs,.
But no upgrades in the ratio of batteries doesn’t mean there’s no upgrade in the battery’s performance. Yes! You read that right, as Samsung aspires to raise that backup by up to 10% with something named ‘Battery AI.’ Maybe this is the next step to expand the features in Galaxy AI. Samsung has already introduced generative AI features under the title ‘Galaxy AI’. Transparently, these AI features are the key reason behind raising sales.
Although there’s a lack of official and enough details of Batter AI, judging by the name, Battery AI could be an intelligent feature baked into the next version of Galaxy AI. This is being reported by a tipster (PandaFlash) on X that an unnamed source informed him of this feature, and users can experience a 5.10% increase in the total runtime.
Software designed to upgrade battery life often comes with downsides. It’s possible that it can slow down your device’s CPU and GPU downclocking and not achieve anything at all. However, in some particular scenarios, the 5G modem’s maximum throughput is also limited.
Noticeably, the tipster didn’t mention exactly how battery AI will work or if this feature will arrive for the Galaxy S25 series. Since the Galaxy S25 series is next in line, it is expected that it could bring this novelty.

Samsung debuted its Galaxy S24 series earlier this year in January and scheduled its next-generation Galaxy S25 series for early 2025. Rumors now suggest that the Galaxy S26 series, expected to launch in 2026, will feature in-house GPUs.
It is quite early to discuss the Galaxy S26 series since the Galaxy S25 series is still in the budding phase and could take half a year more to take the floor. We now expect Samsung to forego using AMD as an in-house GPU for the Galaxy S26. Samsung is actively working on the next-generation Exynos chip, which has the model number S5E9955 and has an AMD RDNA-based GPU.

A well-known tipster, @rquandt, speculated on this in a post on X, saying, “In 2026, Samsung seems to aim for the release of a next-gen flagship SoC featuring its own GPU.”
The tipster also reported that the giant is gearing up to debut its smartphone processor for the Galaxy S26, which could have its own GPU. Samsung is preparing a powerful and efficient processor for the next-generation Galaxy S25, utilizing its second-generation 3 nm process node for fabrication.
Apart from all this, the Korean brand appears to have created a separate team of more than 1,000 engineers to work with the System LSI team on co-development and optimization.
