Key Points:
- Apple's first foldable iPhone, tentatively called the iPhone Ultra, is now expected to launch in early 2027 instead of fall 2026 due to engineering and supply chain challenges.
- The device will reportedly start at $2,000, with the highest-end model priced around $2,200, reflecting its premium positioning.
- Key features include Samsung's M14 OLED panels, a crease-less ultra-thin glass display, a specialized hinge that also acts as a heat sink, and advanced display technologies to reduce thickness and stress.
- The iPhone Ultra will be powered by the A20 Pro chip, have 12GB of RAM, use Apple's in-house C2 modem, and replace Face ID with Touch ID for biometric security.
- Apple may unveil the iPhone Ultra alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models in September 2026 but delay its actual market release to early 2027 due to production constraints like TSMC's 2nm chip shortages and memory supply issues.
