Apple’s Foldable iPhone: New Rumors Suggest ‘Two iPhone Airs Stuck Together’ Design, High Price Tag

New speculation from Mark Gurman’s Power On newsletter offers a glimpse into the potential design and cost of Apple’s anticipated foldable iPhone. While a release is still projected for late next year, Gurman reports that the device could resemble two iPhone Airs joined together, hinting at a remarkably thin profile.

This design choice suggests a device potentially thinner than competitors like the Pixel 10 Pro Fold (10.8mm) and Galaxy Z Fold7 (8.9mm), given the iPhone Air’s 5.6mm thickness. Further, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo’s sources indicate an even thinner unfolded state, possibly as slim as 4.5mm.

However, the premium design is expected to come with a hefty price tag. Gurman projects the foldable iPhone to start at over $2,000, surpassing the cost of the Pixel Fold. A key advantage of basing the design on the iPhone Air is enhanced durability, with the foldable device reportedly featuring a titanium build, similar to the Air model, known for its robustness. This could also translate to a significantly better repairability score compared to current foldable market leaders, which typically score low.
