Apple reportedly speeds up development on a folding iPhone

I’m dubious, but a report by the Economic Daily says that Apple has accelerated its development on a folding iPhone. 

I’m dubious, but a report by the Economic Daily says that Apple has accelerated its development on a folding iPhone. 

The article says the tech giant “has accelerated its pace to invest in the development of the first folding iPhone, and frequently contacted relevant factories, including key components such as bearings, which will enter the production line for mass production verification at the end of this year.” TApple’s first folding iPhone is likely to be released in 2025, according to the Economic Daily.

As I’ve said before, I think that Apple is more likely to release an “iPhone Curve” than an “iPhone Fold.” The giant has filed for various patents that hint at a curved iPhone with a wraparound display. 

For example, patent filing 202200111822 is for an “electronic device with wrap around display.” It’s designed to expand “the functionality of portable electronics devices by providing a more efficient mechanism for presenting visual content is disclosed. I hope you’ll help support Apple World Today by becoming a patron. 

Of course, I could be wrong about an iPhone Fold. Apple has been granted various patents for such a device — though tech giant is granted patents for many inventions that never see the light of day.
