iPhone Fold launch in 2026 is more or less confirmed<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

iPhone 17 series goes on sale from tomorrow but Apple has bigger fishes to fry and one of them is going to be its first iPhone foldable. The new product, most awaited by all means, is widely tipped to be announced with the iPhone 18 series next year. <\/span><\/p>\n

And a new report claims Apple is already planning for production of the device which could eventually be made in India. Yes, Apple\u2019s first iPhone Fold model could be assembled in the country which will be a huge feat for the government.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Made In India iPhone Fold In 2026?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Reuters<\/em> report claims Apple is testing foldable production in Taiwan and aims to mass produce the iPhone device in India before it releases in 2026. The company is looking to increase its overall production by 10 percent which could be enhanced by the focus on the foldable product. Apple has been late to the foldable party (just like AI) and expectations are the device will be more polished and premium than most of the others available in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The report quotes Nikkei<\/em>, claiming, Apple wants to set up the production base and the manufacturing steps with its suppliers in Taiwan first and then use the same process to mass produce the foldable iPhone in India. Does this mean the foldable will launch at a lower price than expected?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To be fair, Apple products never shy away from hefty price tags, something we saw with the Vision Pro headset and even the Watch Ultra model to some extent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And the foldable segment caters to premium products with Samsung\u2019s Z Fold 7 model priced well above Rs 2 lakh for the 1TB variant. These numbers give Apple the surety that its premium status and brand appeal will allow the high-priced iPhone Fold model to get a decent response in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The iPhone Air is probably a clear indication of how Apple plans to trim the size<\/a> of the iPhone, pack all the components in one module and serve a product that gets everyone\u2019s attention. <\/span><\/p>\n
