The last time Apple introduced a product with a moving part was the Airpods line. I think we'll see a foldable iPhone about the same time we see a touchscreen Mac.
- pnt12 1y agoA touchscreen Mac would compete with iPads so that's a no no. For the foldable phone, it may just have to do with aesthetics.
- tyleo 1y agoAll the products compete. A foldable phone already competes with iPads. iPad competes with Mac. iPad Mini competes with iPads.
- gyomu 1y agoWhat a weird argument, Apple ships tons of AirPods and MacBooks with hinges, not counting accessories like the iPad keyboard (introduced after AirPods) or display stands. A hinged iPhone seems totally in the cards.

- ashenke 1y agoThat's funny, a lot of rumors are pointing to a foldable iPhone AND a touchscreen Mac https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/09/latest-round-of-credible-touchscreen-macbook-rumors-point-to-a-2026-launch/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/09/latest-round-of-cred...

- waiwai933 1y agoI don’t own any AirPods, so this may be incredibly obvious to anyone who does, but what’s the moving part in them?
