New Product Event: First Foldable iPhone from Apple Expected
Foldable smartphones have so far been the domain of Samsung and other providers of devices with Google's Android system. Now, according to media reports, Apple is about to enter the market.
Apple is expected to unveil new iPhones today, including its first foldable smartphone, which is reportedly about the size of a passport with displays on the outside and inside. The new device, according to Bloomberg, will have a price tag of around $2,199-$2,500 and will feature a less noticeable fold in the middle of the display compared to competitors.
This will be the first major event under the leadership of new Apple CEO John Ternus, who took over at the start of the month. Market research firm IDC predicts that Apple will take the lead in the foldable smartphone market within 12 months, with a projected 31% market share by 2027.
