Apple Considering Foldable 20-inch MacBook [Report]

Posted February 21, 2022 at 5:36pm by iClarified
Apple is considering the launch of a foldable MacBook with a 20-inch display, according to a new report from Display Supply Chain Consultants.

In its Quarterly Foldable/Rollable Display Shipment and Technology Report, DSCC suggests the device could create a new category for Apple.

We are now showing Apple in our roadmap for foldable notebooks. We hear there is interest at the largest size yet, around 20.x”. This size could create a new category for Apple and would result in a true dual use product, a notebook with a full-size keyboard when folded and for use as a monitor when not folded and used with an external keyboard. It may also allow for UHD/4K resolution or even higher at that size. The time frame is likely later than 2025 though, it could be 2026 or 2027. We explain which display glass size and backplane technology Apple is most likely to use at this point and why in the report. The fact that Apple has interest in a foldable notebook, even if it is five years away, is good news for the foldable space.


With Apple's plans for a foldable iPhone purportedly pushed to 2025, it seems we will have to wait a while for a foldable Apple device. In the meanwhile, please download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for more updates!

No, thank you. I still enjoy the simplistic form factor of how a MacBook’s traditionally designed. I see this as possible potentially rigging the laptop.
