iPhone Fold Leak Hints at iPad-Like Multitasking and a Smaller Cover Display
Apple's foldable iPhone offers side-by-side multitasking with a wider 4:3 display and new iOS app layouts but will not run iPad apps or offer full iPad windowing.
This September, Apple will debut the iPhone Fold, featuring an interior foldable display about the size of an iPad mini and running iOS 27.
Using a wider design, Apple adopts a 4:3 aspect ratio to support side-by-side apps and video, while developers get tools to adapt iPhone apps with left-edge sidebars.
Earlier this week, 3D design files surfaced showing the iPhone Fold uses a hole-punch front-facing camera, fingerprint sensor , dual rear cameras, and a camera plateau.
Earlier this week, 3D design files surfaced showing the iPhone Fold's open and closed layouts before Apple’s planned price around $2,000 makes it the priciest 2026 iPhone.
Software limits include the iPhone Fold running iOS rather than iPadOS and not supporting iPad apps or a true windowing system despite side-by-side app layouts.
