Apple May Release Foldable, Mostly Glass iPhone Models in 2027

 

 Apple is reportedly planning to commemorate? the iPhone’s 20th anniversary with two new models. According to a Bloomberg report, Apple aims to debut its first-ever foldable iPhone by 2027, alongside a “mostly glass, curved iPhoneâ€‌ model.

Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to launch by 2027 and is believed to be one of two key anniversary projects in the works. Designed to rival foldable models from Samsung and others, Apple’s device is said to adopt a book-style folding mechanism.

It may include an external display measuring approximately 5.5 to 5.7 inches, paired with an interior foldable screen ranging from 7.7 to 8 inches. When folded, the device is expected to be around 9 to 9.5mm thick and may use a robust hinge made from a blend of titanium alloy and stainless steel for improved durability.

Alongside the foldable model, Apple is also said to be developing a "mostly glass, curved iPhone" with no cutouts in the display.? It aims to deliver a truly immersive, edge-to-edge display, eliminating the need for a notch or Dynamic Island, and potentially integrating the front-facing camera beneath the screen itself.

Beyond iPhones, Bloomberg also reports that Apple could enter new product categories around the same time. The company is said to be working on its first pair of smartglasses, positioned to rival Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses, with a potential release also slated for 2027. Other longer-term projects include a foldable iPad and a tabletop robotic device, though these are not expected to arrive before 2028.?
