Apple's Foldable iPhone May Cost Between $2100 and $2300 [Rumor]

Apple much anticipated foldable iPhone, often referred to as the 'iPhone Fold,' may cost between $2100 and $2300 when it's launched, according to a new report from leaker Instant Digital.

In a recent post on Weibo, the leaker wrote:

Based on iPhone's profit margins, the foldable iPhone is estimated to start between $2,100 and $2,300 — not much more expensive than Samsung's.


The current Galaxy Fold6 with 256GB of storage costs $1899.99 unlocked. The configuration with 512GB of storage costs $2019.99.

Prior rumors had suggested that Apple would price the iPhone Fold at around $2000 to $2500, so this is right in line with those predictions.

The foldable device is expected to feature a book-style design with a crease-free 7.76-inch inner display and a 5.49-inch outer screen. Notably, Touch ID may return integrated into the side button, due to internal space constraints possibly limiting Face ID.

The device is said to measure approximately 9–9.5mm thick when folded and 4.5–4.8mm unfolded. The hinge will purportedly incorporate both stainless steel and titanium alloy, with the outer casing also crafted from titanium alloy. Additionally, the device might utilize the same high-density battery cells as the upcoming ultra-thin iPhone 17. Camera specifications include a dual-lens rear setup complemented by a single front-facing camera usable in both folded and unfolded states.


Apple is projected to finalize specifications in the second quarter of 2025, with an official project launch in Q3 2025 and mass production starting in Q4 2026. Initial shipment estimates for the first-generation foldable model are set at 3–5 million units in 2026, rising to potentially 20 million units by 2027 when including the second-generation device.
