iPhone Fold leak details crease depth and folding angle

Apple's foldable iPhone uses a Samsung-developed panel to achieve a crease depth under 0.15 mm and a fold angle below 2.5°, addressing a key foldable smartphone issue.

  • Recently, Fixed Focus Digital posted on Weibo that Apple’s inner display crease depth is controlled to under 0.15 mm with a fold angle below 2.5 degrees.
  • According to manufacturing sources, assembly lines recently received orders and Fixed Focus Digital says the production line saw orders confirming a launch this year; UDN reported last year Apple solved the crease problem.
  • Reports show the handset combining a large main screen with a smaller cover display, and Apple using a Samsung-developed panel described as `virtually crease free` with a 7.8-inch main display and 5.5-inch cover display.
  • Positioned as a major form‑factor change, Apple plans to unveil the foldable alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models in September, signaling a significant industry shift since 2007.
  • Given industry disclosure practices, independent verification is limited because competing foldable brands don’t publish crease measurements, which describe the crease depth and folding radius; the reported depth is comparable to about one to two sheets of paper .
