Apple is expected to unveil its first foldable iPhone on September 9, with reports indicating a starting price between $2,199 and $2,999, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, positioning it as a premium device. The price exceeds Apple's initial $1,999 target due to memory shortages and rising costs. For comparison, the iPhone 17 starts at $799 and the Pro model at $1,099, making the foldable nearly double the Pro's base price. The device reportedly features a 7.8-inch inner screen and 5.5-inch outer display, similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8. Development accelerated after 2020 when CEO Tim Cook pushed for entry into the foldable market following observations in Asia.
