Apple still hasn’t officially announced a foldable iPhone, but reports and industry leaks continue to point toward a launch sometime in 2026. The device is expected to be Apple’s first entry into the foldable phone market, years after competitors like Samsung, Google, and Huawei introduced their own folding designs.

Current rumors suggest the phone could use a book-style foldable design that opens into a larger tablet-like display. Apple is reportedly focusing heavily on reducing the visible crease in the screen and improving durability, two areas that have been common criticisms of foldable devices so far.

The device is also expected to carry a premium price tag, potentially making it one of the most expensive iPhones Apple has ever released. Analysts believe Apple is taking a cautious approach, waiting for display technology and manufacturing processes to mature before bringing a foldable model to market.

While many details remain uncertain, the prospect of a foldable iPhone has become one of the most closely watched hardware projects in Apple’s pipeline as the company looks for new ways to refresh its smartphone lineup.

Outdoor spaces in Fergus are being planned with both structure and greenery in mind, rather than treating patios, lawns, paths, and gardens as separate pieces.

A new report says Apple is continuing to explore using liquid metal materials in future iPhone designs, possibly for the outer frame of the device.

Liquid metal has been rumored around Apple products for years because of its strength, durability, and resistance to bending or scratches. The material is technically an amorphous alloy, and Apple has held exclusive licensing rights for some uses of it since the early 2010s.

The latest claims suggest Apple may finally be getting closer to using the material in larger structural parts instead of smaller internal components like SIM ejector tools. If it happens, the shift would likely be tied to making future iPhones lighter and more durable without changing the overall design language too dramatically.

Apple could be planning a noticeable display change for the iPhone 18 Pro, with reports pointing toward a shift in how the front-facing components are arranged. The idea is to reduce visible cutouts on the screen, moving closer to a cleaner, less interrupted display.

This likely involves placing some sensors under the display, while keeping others—like the front camera—still visible in a smaller form. It’s part of Apple’s longer push to gradually hide more hardware beneath the screen without compromising performance.

The change wouldn’t be a full jump to a completely uninterrupted display just yet, but more of a step in that direction. Apple seems to be refining things incrementally rather than making a single dramatic shift.

If it happens, it would continue the slow evolution of the iPhone’s front design, focusing on subtle improvements rather than a total redesign.
