10+ min ago (437+ words) There's never been any doubt that next year's iPhone Fold is going to be an extremely expensive device, but a small detail in a report published yesterday provides a further steer on what to expect. We've so far seen pricing estimates in the $1,800 to $2,500 range, and yesterday's report may be one reason to expect something closer to the higher end " Folding phones are expensive, period. You only have to look at the Android Market to get an idea of pricing. Even flip phones, which are the cheapest option, are at least as expensive as the iPhone 17 Pro: But the iPhone Fold is going to be a book-style device, which are substantially more expensive: Apple's model certainly isn't going to be any cheaper than its competitors, and is likely to be more expensive.

31+ min ago (305+ words) Apple is widely expected to step into the foldable smartphone segment next year, and early leaks suggest its debut device could be unlike any iPhone before it. Tentatively referred to as the iPhone Fold, the upcoming model is said to introduce several firsts for the Cupertino-based company, including what may become both the smallest and the largest displays ever used on a modern iPhone. Competing devices such as Google's Pixel 10 Pro Fold and Oppo's Find N5 use significantly larger cover displays measuring 6.4 inches and 6.62 inches respectively. Even Samsung's latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 comes with a 6.5-inch outer screen, although the original Galaxy Fold launched with a much smaller 4.6-inch panel. Apple's approach appears to prioritise portability when the device is folded. However, unfolding the device is expected to reveal a dramatically different experience. The internal display is tipped to measure 7.58 inches,…...

Yes, we already know about the iPhone Fold, as well as the prospect of an upcoming "20th anniversary iPhone" with an all-screen design. Now, however, The Information has a detailed report about all of the new iPhones Apple is working on, with some details we haven't seen elsewhere.

Apple appears to be preparing one of the most ambitious iPhone redesigns in its history, with early reports suggesting a device that could look radically different from today's models. According to a report by a famous publication, the company is working on a special iPhone to commemorate 20 years of the iconic product, a milestone that will arrive in 2027. Much like the iPhone X reshaped Apple's design language in 2017, this anniversary model is said to represent a major visual and technological leap. At the heart of this concept is a completely clean front design. Apple is reportedly aiming for an uninterrupted display that stretches edge-to-edge, free from bezels, notches, hole-punch cutouts, or the Dynamic Island. In simple terms, the goal is a true all-screen…...

2+ hour, 27+ min ago (342+ words) If you are thinking about upgrading your smartphone in the next year or two, it may be wise to plan carefully. The next generation of devices is expected to come with noticeably higher price tags, and the driving force is not flashy new phone features, but the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence infrastructure around the world. As global investment in AI accelerates, chipmakers are prioritising these lucrative customers. Counterpoint analysts warn that this shift is not temporary and could intensify through 2026. Memory prices are expected to rise by as much as 40 per cent through the first half of that year, significantly increasing costs for smartphone makers. The impact is already visible in the bill of materials (BoM), which represents the total cost of components used to build a phone. Budget smartphones priced under $200 have been hit the hardest, with production…...
