The foldable iPhone should be at the price of about twice that of the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Apple is expected to publish a limited number of these foldable smartphones, which should make their debut at the end of next year, with a foldable book style design.
According to MacRumors, Barclays analyst Tim Long said in an investor note that the starting price of the first Apple foldable iPhone could be about $ 2,300 in the United States.
If this speculation turns out to be exact, the device would be almost double the cost of the most expensive iPhone in Apple. The iPhone 16 Pro Max starts at $ 1,199 for the basic model with 256 GB of storage and reaches up to $ 1,599 for variant 1 TB.
In comparison, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 has an initial price of $ 1,899, while the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold starts at $ 1,799. Long price forecasts would come from a recent trip to Asia, where his team has signed up with equipment manufacturers. He noted that there is an increasing conversation in the supply chain concerning the launch of an iPhone foldable between the end of 2026 and the beginning of 2027.
Due to the higher starting price, for a long time has been pre that Apple will offer a limited amount of this foldable device. Previous reports have suggested that the price of the foldable iPhone could vary from $ 2,000 to $ 2,500.
