Apple is hesitant to launch a foldable iPhone, although it has developed a prototype.
There are already many companies that have introduced foldable devices with flexible screens, with Samsung being one of the most popular companies with its fourth generation of foldable devices. The latest to do the same was Google, which recently hosted a special event where it showed off a Pixel Fold, its first foldable cellphone.
Moreover, during the conference Google I/O the company also presented news of artificial intelligenceimprovements in androidAnd Pixel 7a and an Pixel tablet.

For its part, Apple seems to continue to ignore this area of technology while its competitors continue to get richer and take advantage of consumer demand. Despite the fact that Apple has filed numerous patents related to a foldable iPhone, it does not appear that the company with the bitten apple logo has any intention of launching a flexible screen iPhone in the near future.
However, everyone knows that Apple regularly uses a clever marketing strategy which consists of waiting until after the launch of a new technological innovation to improve it, perfect it and adapt it in front of the users of its ecosystem, which has already happened on several occasions.
