Not until 2023 – iPhone with a folding screen

The foldable iPhone won’t be out until 2023, if it’s on the agenda at all.

Given the success that Samsung is having with its foldable smartphones today, it’s not surprising if Apple tries to capitalize on the general public’s enthusiasm for this market. There have been many rumors in the past that the Cupertino-based company is currently working on its own folding screen smartphone. Today, it looks like we have a small estimate of the time it takes to commercialize such a device.

It is reported that the iPhone with a folding screen will appear no earlier than 2023.

According to a new report from Display Supply Chain Consultants, analyst Ross Yang understands that the Apple brand could launch its own folding-screen smartphone in the next few years. However, this should not be happening now. However, according to Ross Young, the commercialization of this device will not begin until 2023.

If it’s on the agenda

This means that you can forget about the launch in 2022, if, of course, you were expecting an iPhone with a folding display. And even 2023 seems pretty challenging. That being said, again according to this report, after 2023 it may well be possible after all, be it 2025, 2027 or even 2030. However, if Apple really intends to offer a smartphone with a folding screen, there is a good chance that it will want to give the South Korean giant as little time as possible to establish itself in this market.

In addition, it should also be borne in mind that another rumor has been circulating recently. According to this, Apple will aim to replace its iPhone with an augmented reality device in the next 10 years. In this context, it’s hard to imagine that the flip screen iPhone can find its place. Or maybe it’s a temporary device. In any case, with such distant estimates, almost anything could happen. So don’t expect anything special. Patience!
