Apple remains the only big phonemaker without a foldable, and the newest rumor says, yet again, it could launch by 2026.

My unpopular opinion is that the folding iPhone will happen long before Apple Car will ever be revived from the research and development graveyard (at the very back of the Walled Garden). I feel much more confident about a foldable iPhone arriving next year.

Retro styling plus lessons learned from the modern flip phone industry combine. Will Apple’s typical reticence to jump on a trend early pay off?
