This would be amazing, but perhaps they cannot physically squeeze it in yet? 🤷🏻♂️
Who cares about 14? Old news. I want rumors about the iPhone 15.
Let me start: Better graphics, better camera, better processor than iPhone 14.
Stay tuned for more
Right in time for the end of the pandemic and wearing masks. Wonderful timing Timmy. All the foresight and vision you would expect from a CFO aka bean counter.
Who’s really asking for a foldable phone?
I just don’t get it. Why? Apart from the “oh, look, it folds” what’s the point?
Can’t see Apple doing it.

We don’t need a folding iPhone or the inevitable ‘Foldgate’ that will accompany it.
Stop innovating, please "mdekker" doesn't like it! No more foldable phone, decided today!
I doubt this is the reason, it probably just does not fit in, considering how crammed the iPhone insides are already?
This so called "Kuo analyst" has a track record like the old 33/45 records. While I enjoy Apple products, the competition phone manufacturers have had built in display finger print readers, under display cameras, foldable phones, etc for at least a year or more. And, the cost of those devices are usually lower than Apples.
The loud minority wins again, until Apple realizes only a handful of people are clamoring for this, then discontinues it and finally moves on from it...
Back to? It’s still in iPhones, the SE has it, and Apple’s definitely been investing in fingerprint auth because they just released the new external mac keyboard with touchID, and the power button version is in both last years iPad Air and this years just announced ipad mini…..
Well you can always get yourself a "Jitterbug" it's just like that.
If Apple is truly considering a foldable then I'd expect it to solve some of the issues with the current foldables such as the crease you can see and feel when they're fully opened. That's really my main rationale for not buying one (beyond needing to switch to Android which is my actual #1 reason).
