Leaked information also said that Apple has been researching foldable screen products for the past 4 years as well as making many changes in design. According to MacRumors , the company will release a foldable screen iPad model, before developing a foldable screen iPhone.
Explaining this, some experts say that Apple's choice to focus on the iPad is to minimize business risks as well as issues related to supply chain management.
Previously, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also said that Apple will introduce a foldable iPad in 2024. This device is expected to come with a carbon fiber stand.
Apple is also said to be working with LG to create an ultra-thin cover glass specifically for the company's foldable products. It's unclear when this material will appear on iPhones or iPads.
Apple has yet to make any official announcements about foldable devices, but multiple sources have suggested that the company is planning a series of foldable products, including iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks.
