Apple plans to announce its first foldable smartphone, potentially named the iPhone Ultra, at its September event alongside the iPhone 18.
The premium book-style device features a 7.8-inch internal screen to compete with Samsung’s foldable offerings.
Conflicting supply chain reports leave the official on-sale date uncertain.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo expects constrained initial production volumes.
Limited availability may persist until late 2026, mirroring the staggered release of the iPhone X.
