In a recent announcement, Apple announced that it would release a foldable iPhone, but users are still unsure as to the exact date when it will be released.
The Cupertino based tech giant will not be expected to release a foldable iPhone until at least 2027, however, as shown in a recent report by TrendForce, a Taiwanese research firm, its presence in the market may have a substantial impact in the future.
Currently, foldable phones only constitute a small portion of the smartphone gadget market, accounting for only 1.5% of the total market.
In spite of this, if the projections are to be believed, this could increase to 4.8% by 2028, according to the projections.
A source told Mashable that Apple is still evaluating the component specifications and performance for its upcoming iPhone, which will be subject to stringent reliability and durability requirements.
It is also important to note that many of the current foldable devices suffer from the problem of screen creasing. There are some concerns about the long-term durability of these devices as well as the fact that debris has the potential of damaging the screens.
Competitors of Apple’s foldable iPhone
Due to Samsung, Huawei, Motorola and Nubia already having launched popular foldable devices, Apple might not be able to disadvantage itself with its delayed entry.
With Apple’s substantial market influence and loyal customer base, a foldable iPhone is likely to be a big success as soon as it launches, according to the technology giant’s substantial market influence.
It has also been suggested by analysts that Apple’s upcoming foldable phone could have a significant effect on market dynamics as well.
The majority of people expect Apple to showcase a foldable large-screen iPad or MacBook before they introduce a foldable iPhone. By entering this gadget category in this way, the American tech giant will be marking its first foray into a new industry.
