A leaker posted images of a dummy unit of an Apple foldable iPhone on Bluesky, showing its exterior design while reports indicate production challenges may delay its release by months. Apple is expected to unveil its first foldable iPhone alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max in September, but engineering issues have emerged that could push the launch back. The images depict a device with two rear cameras in a pill‑shaped island spanning about two‑thirds of the unusually wide body, similar in style to Google’s Pixel Fold but wider, and no interior details such as camera placement or Face ID sensors are visible. Analysts note the form factor may align with Samsung’s rumored Wide Fold variant. Nikkei Asia reported that early engineering tests have encountered unresolved problems, with a source saying more time is needed to resolve the challenges. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman previously suggested the device may ship after the Pro models, even if announced in September. Apple has not confirmed a launch date, and the base iPhone 18 is slated for 2027. The delay, if confirmed, would place the foldable’s availability after the 18 Pro models, though Apple has yet to provide an official timeline.
