Apple to launch two foldable devices in 2026

The next iPhone 16 is expected to be launched just after the summer, but there is already talk of products that will be launched in two years, and according to the latest rumors Apple to debut foldable segment with two new products set to launch in 2026: an iPad-Macbook and an iPhone.

The foldable iPhone has been talked about for years, and while other companies already have several generations of devices of this type, Apple does not seem to be in a hurry to launch into this new product segment. Although not yet very popular, just go down the street and see that there are very few users who own this type of smartphone despite the fact that their prices are even more affordable in some cases than Apple’s iPhone, it seems that the market is doomed to turn to this new type of smartphones, although it remains to be seen what the real advantages of this foldable design are. According to the latest rumors published by Jeff Pu, an analyst, Apple will debut in the foldable device market in 2026 with two products, an iPad-Macbook hybrid and an iPhone

.

The first to hit the market would be the foldable iPad or the “all-screen” MacBook, depending on how you look at it. It would be a hybrid between Apple’s laptop and its tablet that, when unfolded, would reach a screen size of 18.8 inches

. No details were given on what its operating system would be, without combining iPadOS and macOS depending on the use that was made of it, or if it would release a new hybrid operating system between the two. What it did give is an estimate of the launch date: second quarter of 2026. Then, the foldable iPhone would arrive, at the end of 2026, with a design very similar to Samsung’s Z-FlipIn other words, it would be a square device that, when unfolded, would look like a current smartphone. There are two years left, so it’s time to save.
