Most of the leading smartphone manufacturers all across the globe have of course already launched at least one foldable smartphone in the market, while companies such as Samsung have already launched three generations of such devices.
On the other hand then, companies such as Apple are yet to launch a foldable iPhone, however, there have in fact been reports that have actually suggested that such a device could in fact soon make its way. However, in accordance with what a very recent report suggests, this might not be true as it has been suggested that the foldable iPhone has now been delayed.
In accordance with what a new report coming in from Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC) analyst Ross Young, the foldable from Apple has been delayed until that of 2025. The reason given behind this is that the brand is actually exploring the all-screen foldable MacBooks.

Of course the delay for the foldable iPhone is indeed rather long, if the report suggesting that it won’t make its way into the market until 2025 turns out to be true. Earlier, the device was actually rumored to launch sometime in 2023 or 2024 in order to catch up with the competition in the market. However, the delay in respect to the launch goes on to indicate that the tech giant isn’t exactly in much of a hurry to enter the world of foldable smartphones anyways.
Interestingly enough then, it seems that the tech giant is focusing more on MacBooks and is also allegedly exploring the possibility of offering an all-screen foldable notebook. The company is indeed currently in discussion with suppliers for the sake of a 20-inch foldable screen.
However, it’s important to remember at this point then that the launch timeline for the foldable MacBook is likely to be later than 2025 and the launch will likely take place in 2026 or 2027. This could then, all in all, make its way as a new product category for the brand, with two different use cases in folded and full opened forms.
