Apple's First Foldable iPhone Expected to Launch with Design Praise but Camera and Biometric Changes

Analysed 24 Aug 2026·3 sources analysed·Technology
Apple's First Foldable iPhone Expected to Launch with Design Praise but Camera and Biometric ChangesPreviousNext

Apple is set to unveil its first foldable iPhone, reportedly named iPhone Ultra, featuring a 5.5-inch outer display and a 7.8-inch internal screen with an iPad-like experience. Early testers praise its compact design, sturdy hinge, and multitasking capabilities. However, the device may lack a telephoto camera lens and Face ID, opting instead for Touch ID on the side button. These omissions could affect its appeal, especially given its expected premium price.
