Apple has long, according to the iPhone, work on iPhone Bending and folding iPad. The new report claims that the iPad project is “suspended”, and I am convinced that this is the right decision.
rumors about the folding device have been numerous in recent years, and the overall conviction was that something would be released in 2026 or about that. Whether it will be a telephone or some kind of hybrid of a tablet bast shirt, it is unclear, depending on which analyst you listened.
It is important to remember that this last report, kindly provided by digital indicators, does not say that the folding iPad was canceled. Rather, it says that Apple “decided to make progress” in the project.
, of course, this is from numbers. These are the guys who said that the professional display of the XDR was IMAC, so everything they say should be taken not only with salt grain, but also a whole face of salt.
, more precisely, how long this pause lasts, we will have to wait and see. In the end, according to rumors that the folding screen screen of them will become the next year for the last seven.
who is waiting for a folding iPad, in any case?
If for a folding iPad there was any potential in order to make it difficult for Apple's plans for folding iPhone, in design, equipment, delivery or production, I think that Apple acted correctly, providing the iPhone priority.
Why is it reduced to expectations, demand and the market around Apple in 2025. The absence of a folding iPhone is … something for Apple, especially that other telephone phones continue to iteration at lightning speed. Regardless of whether this is a real problem, depends very much on your IPhone use option.
The folding phone market is spent on the niche. Most folding smartphones are more expensive than the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and this is a giant tablet for most people for Android. Any client and mdash; Especially high -quality & mdash; Lost for Android, because they are not served, this is too much.
FOLDENTS here to stay, and the return of these customers can take something special.
I’m still not sure how many people are required by a folding iPad, which can turn into a kind of MacBook when traditional MacBooks continue to sell bandits.
, ultimately, after the start of the Apple Vision Pro, I'm not sure that Apple wants another relatively low launch and mdash; Compared to indistinguishable iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch, at least.
Apple stands behind the competition
, Perhaps Apple did not enter a folding fight, but others have not yet been waiting to accept leadership. Famous players, such as Samsung and Motorola, have many years of experience in folding realization, and their goods begin to show it.
even the flaming data that you receive from failures are data. Both Samsung and Motorola have this, as a result of compressed screens captured by a loop and famous high -profile reviewers shooting the screen film.
samsung is actually preparing to declare updated folding models. But Apple really appears as Oppo and Honor, and I think this is a problem.
OPPO FIND N5-eating a folding phone. It is incredibly thin, super-fan and looks great. A completely new Honor V5 is even thinner, albeit 0.1 mm.
Oppo Find N5 is one thin folding phone.
Both of these phones have bizarre loops that are designed to solve well-known folding problems. These problems? Outstanding folds and prosecutor, which can cause chaos, to which I mentioned earlier.
both phones are evaluated as dust and water resistance as a result of a new hinge, and both have almost invisible folds. Oh, and both also have magnificent OLED folding panels at 120 Hz.
It has long been assumed that Apple was late for the folding market because he did not want to deal with the problems that pursued these devices. But these problems (mainly) were resolved, and we could already look at what Apple plans for the most important hinge.
, which leaves an obvious, uncomfortable, protracted question: if Oppo and Honor can do this, why cannot Apple?
Why Apple needed so much time to get here, we still do not know. This may not want to, because we know that he has technology and research. Maybe this question will answer when the iPhone fold is finally announced.
, but probably not. Apple is monolithic in its silence on issues such as it is & mdash; Until he decides in his endless wisdom, that the time has come not to be.
I hope that I am amazed and that the expectation suddenly makes sense.
iPads are iPads, And MacBooks are MacBooks
with Apple ' S iPhone Fold Maybe Desperately Needed, and Craved by a Few high roller, which is from the iPad of the fold?
, although there are versions of PC Windows something like that, according to rumors, they are far from the mainstream. I compare them with the tablet PC in the late 1990s and MDash; They are cool, but ultimately do not respond to the real need for sufficient people.
The iPad Apple line is full of popular products, and the same applies to the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro line. Mixing two together seems a strange solution. Not least because we do not know whether he will launch iPados or MacOS.
in the end, it all comes down to a simple issue of priorities and resources. One of the rumors, the folded Apple devices have always been in the first place, the only question was what it would be.
For me there was only one option. The iPhone Fold was supposed to be in Apple several years ago. I still do not see where the iPad fold fits in it.
Apple does not suffer for money. He can wait forever, if necessary, and people who remember the iPod or iPhone, taking off directly from the gate, remember the story incorrectly. It took several years for both, and the iPad and Apple are watching even longer. We are now in the midst of this “why this” for Apple Vision Pro.
, but lost sales are lost. The military chest or not, the shareholders expect everything to be done to do more.
I have in mind, Apple seems to have made an obvious decision. Concentrate on a product that people can buy, leaving that they are not.
I can’t wait to see what a folding iPhone can offer. And who knows, maybe this will also help me in a folding iPad.
