There have been previous rumors of a foldable iPhone, but this one is more credible. According to documents seen in an article from MacRumors, reliable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo advised investors that Apple expects to release an 8-inch foldable iPhone by 2023. According to the article, Apple expects to sell 15-20 million units in 2023, based on an “industry survey.”

In March, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo hinted at the prospect of a folding iPhone, but his new article includes more details on vendors. Samsung Display is expected to supply the QHD+ flexible OLED, while Samsung Foundry will provide the DDI display controller. Apple will use TPK’s silver nanowire touch technology “because of its many advantages over [Samsung’s] Y-Octa technology,” according to the reports.

Don’t start saving for an iPhone Fold or something just yet, because the article is extremely speculative. Other data, on the other hand, lend it more legitimacy. If part shortages increase, Kuo expects Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi, and Honor to launch new foldable models in late 2021 or early 2022, with shipments ramping up to 17 million by 2022.

Foldable phones could become the “next revolutionary selling point of high-end models” if this occurs, according to Kuo. Apple will, of course, like to be prepared for its own model in that situation. However, if the devices don’t take off as Kuo predicts, Apple can abandon the project like a hot rock. In other words, in the next two years, a lot will happen.
