Michael Fisher, known as MrMobile and host of The MacRumors Show, discussed rumors of Apple’s foldable iPhone, expected to be announced alongside the iPhone 18 Pro in the fall and priced above $2,000.

The device is rumored to feature a 7.8‑inch inner display, a 5.5‑inch cover screen, and the A20 chip, with a design that adopts a shorter, wider form factor similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8. Apple is reported to use a layered glass display and a liquid‑metal hinge to reduce the creasing that has affected earlier foldables.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the price will exceed $2,000, making it Apple’s most expensive iPhone. The rumored model is expected to include two rear cameras and omit a telephoto lens, while incorporating a Camera Control button. It may use side‑mounted Touch ID instead of Face ID because of limited chassis space. Durability concerns persist after hinge failures on the original Galaxy Fold and Samsung’s lack of full dust resistance in current foldables. Code strings in the iOS 27 beta reference hinge angles, and Apple has introduced new app adaptation protocols, suggesting early software preparation for the foldable.

The announcement is anticipated this fall, but specifications and pricing remain unconfirmed.
