Apple i-folds
These patents are like coal for our folding iPhone furnaces, but that flame should be set on low. I noted how analysts in the latter piece still caution that while Apple is clearly working on folding iPhones , we shouldn't expect anything this year.
I'm all for Apple waiting out other tech companies as they stumble over themselves and each other trying to create usable, long-lasting, and affordable handsets. It's the Apple way to drop into a pre-existing category and summarily show everyone how it's done. There may be no better recent example than theStill, the hour is late and
just showed the existing foldable market how it's done. The Pixel Fold is expensive but otherwise easily the best folding handset on the market. Instead of being full of compromises, it unfolds into a world of possibilities.I'm not implying that there's no room for improvement in the folding area. Apple could bring an iFold to market that features better materials like ceramics and sapphire crystal. It could add a LiDAR camera for 3D capture.
I do not expect to see even a glimpse of Apple's foldable plans in 2023 but I will also not be hiding my disappointment.
