In an article for investment bank Barclays, analyst Tim Long said Apple 's first foldable iPhone model will start at $2,300 in the US.

If the information is correct, this will be the most expensive smartphone in Apple's history. This means the device's selling price is almost twice as high as the iPhone 16 Pro Max (starting at $ 1,200 ).

Long's information was given after a business trip to Asia, meeting with hardware manufacturing partners. Accordingly, the supply chain discussed the possibility of launching a foldable iPhone in late 2026 or early 2027. The expensive price means that the device's production capacity is not too high.

Previously, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that the foldable iPhone would cost $2,000-$2,500 , with a book-like folding design similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold.

Kuo said the foldable iPhone will have a 7.8-inch “no-crease” main screen, a 5.5-inch outer screen, 2 rear cameras, and a front camera. The device is expected to use Touch ID integrated into the power button instead of Face ID, and high-density battery technology similar to the iPhone 17 Air.

In terms of size, Kuo predicts the device will be around 4.5mm thin when unfolded, and 9-9.5mm thin when folded. The case could be made of titanium, while the hinge will use a mix of titanium and stainless steel. Thanks to the large screen, Apple could position the foldable iPhone as a “true AI device.”

Despite the high price, analysts say foldable iPhones could generate strong demand, provided the quality meets expectations. For example, the no-fold screen technology could attract many customers.

According to Kuo, Apple aims to finalize the foldable iPhone specifications in the second quarter to launch the project in the third quarter. Mass production is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026.

A few days ago, analyst Jeff Pu also predicted that the foldable iPhone will be mass produced from the second half of 2026. The prototype development stage could begin in April.
