Report: Apple Eyes iPhone Release Shake-Up, Roldable Bookyle Style

Apple provides an upheaval of its usual iPhone output calendar, before the release of the first foldable iPhone to very competition, Information Reports.

Apple now plans to push the release of the standard iPhone 18 and the iPhone 16th model updated in spring 2027, but keep the pro, pro max, pro max, air and foldable models as traditional autumn 2026 versions, according to several unnamed sources involved in the Apple supply chain.

Information Said that the reshuffle of the output calendar will make the six iPhone larger more manageable range, reducing the number of manufacturing workers that Apple must use at the same time.

Apple would have tested the manufacture of these cheaper models in India, in the context of efforts to avoid prices of the Trump administration by moving away from Chinese manufacturing. The CEO of Apple, Tim Cook, was public in terms of plans to move more production in India, Say investors earlier this week It expects that “the majority of iPhones sold in the United States will have India as a country of origin.”

Information was also able to publish certain details on what the foldable iPhone could look like when it landed. The new “foldable” would have a “book” style design with a 5.7 -inch screen when folded and a display of about eight inches when it is completely open, similar to Google Pixel Plé or the Honor Magic V2.

This would give the iPhone a visual appearance very different from popular conceptions of fatal style of “clamshell” style that we have seen in existing popular folding phones like the Galaxy Z Flip series or MOTO RAZR +.

In addition, the next iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max models would have sub-panel identification sensors, with only a small holes cut in the upper left corner for the front camera, creating a more uninterrupted screen.
