This marks a significant shift for the tech giant, which has traditionally focused on sleek, non-foldable designs. The foldable iPhone is expected to offer larger screens while maintaining portability, a feature that has been popular among users of competing brands. The announcement comes at a time when foldable technology is gaining traction in the smartphone market, with several other companies already offering similar products.
