Today a new TrendForce Report Apple says it will not release a foldable phone before 2027. This may take time due to the company’s crease and reliability requirements. This means that unlike Samsung, Apple wants the folding screen to not have any kind of crease when opened. However, reliability can mean anything, but it can be assumed that Apple will want the folding mechanism to keep working for many years.
TrendForce experts say that Apple is still evaluating component specifications and performance for the first iPhone Fold, and this could take quite some time. If it is only launching in 2027, then manufacturing will probably only begin next year. So there is still time for Apple suppliers to meet all its exact specifications.
Meanwhile, in the first quarter of this year, Huawei has snatched Samsung’s number 1 position globally in terms of foldable devices and became the number 1 brand itself. However, the Korean company can largely claim this position back after the launch of its upcoming Galaxy smartphones. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Samsung Flip 6 are expected to be launched next month. Huawei is preparing to launch the world’s first tri-fold smartphone between July and September in the third quarter. This can give tough competition to Samsung.
