What innovation? This is already being done. And truly, who asked for this? There is a reason why other manufacturers aren't trying to chase this...

Apple's 18-Inch Foldable iPad Delayed Until 2029, Could Cost Up to $3,900

Some of us use the AVP daily for hours a day for work etc.
At that price, it better run macOS. No ifs, ands or buts
****ing Hell thats pricey, on the other hand we know what Samsung's next product is going to be.
Just scrap the idea at this point. I guess Apple is just trying to burn thru its cash on hand working on this? By the time this goes to production component prices will be 20% higher. No one’s buying a $5,500 iPad 🥱
No the title says delay for the foldable iPad not the iPhone Fold.
Just give it a regular hinge. Lenovo Yoga Book 9i going for $1500 and it comes with the keyboard accessory.
Leakers only just now realized that the folks leaking to them simply really enjoy free meals. Having come that conclusion, they’ve decided to let everyone know that “the product ISN’T imaginary, it’s going to take longer to make” as phase 1. Phase two will be “Apple employees have concerns about the folding phone” as “apple employee” stories get us a LOT of clicks as people send it to their friends saying, “See? People inside Apple feel the way I do!”. Finally, phase three will be that the imaginary product has ended development and will not be produced.
Touch enabled replacement for a laptop for the literal millions that don’t do code development? ;D
Same kind of energy, the only difference is that no one other than VERY gullible people that really want to believe the story think it’s real.
People paid exuberant sums on wheels for the mac, stand for a display and the Vision Pro.
This is one design I don't get. A foldable mega iPad? How do you hold it? Use it as a laptop? What's the point?
I guess Apple will enlighten us when the time comes 😅

Yeah, yeah... just like with the first iPad prices. Fake prices are circulating, and in the end it will cost “only” $2,000.
And anyone who says that such devices are useless should try one out in a store!
A foldable like this is 10 times more useful than an iPhone Air!

well, that's certainly a way to make it not cannibalize Mac/ipad sales lol
Make it cost as much as a MBP+ipad . Clever
And if it runs ipadOS only, that's an absolute scam

RIP to your notifications. The Air clan is going to get on you for that comment.
This sounds good. A 2 in 1!
You will get the same usage you will get out of a MacBook Pro. It’s not different just will fold
Where Vision Pro no other device can do what that can be a media and multitasking point of view. Both have massive price points and that is the issue
