iPhone fans have been waiting for a foldable iPhone for quite a long time now. Almost every major smartphone company has its foldable phone in the market right now. While Google is gearing up to launch the 2nd-gen Pixel Fold, Samsung has already launched the 6th-gen models of Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Z Fold phones. We have been hearing rumours and speculations around the first foldable iPhone for the past few years and it appears that the wait for Apple's foldable device will finally end in 2026. If reports turn out to be true, then we may see two foldable devices from Apple in coming years.

Foldable Apple iPad, Apple's first foldable device, was rumoured to hit the market in 2025. However, as per the latest comments by Haitong analyst Jeff Pu, foldable iPad may be delayed into 2026. The report by Jeff Pu backs his previous claims suggesting that Apple's first foldable device will reach massive production in 2025 and 2026. The analyst believes that Apple will likely join the foldable market in the second quarter of 2026 due to "display durability issues."
