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.
