However, no official information has been shared by Apple regarding its foldable phone at the moment. The first foldable iPhone may be launched under the name iPhone Fold.
How much will the iPhone Fold cost?
According to a recent report, Apple's first foldable iPhone will be more expensive than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7.
