Every launch cycle brings progress in the form of thinner hinges, less visible creases, stronger materials, and better water resistance. And to be fair, those improvements have added up. Foldables in 2025 are noticeably better than the ones that felt like fragile experiments in 2019 or 2020. Still, 2025 wasn't the year foldables became perfect. And to be honest, 2026 won't be either. That doesn't mean foldables are standing still. They'll continue to look nicer, feel lighter, and break less often. Some of them already function as genuinely good phones." But if you're waiting for the moment when foldables stop feeling like a compromise and start feeling like the obvious default, you're probably going to keep waiting. Not because manufacturers aren't trying, but because the core problems of foldables aren't close to being solved....

2+ hour, 12+ min ago (370+ words) Apple's long-rumoured foldable iPhone may not reach users as quickly as expected, even if the company unveils it next year. According to well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, development delays and manufacturing challenges could push meaningful availability of the iPhone Fold closer to 2027. Kuo recently shared fresh insights during an appearance on the MacroMicro podcast, followed by a detailed note expanding on Apple's foldable plans. While Apple is still expected to announce its first foldable iPhone in the second half of 2026, Kuo cautions that production timelines are far from smooth. At the heart of the delay are early-stage yield issues and difficulties in scaling up manufacturing. Foldable devices rely on complex components, especially flexible displays and hinges, areas where even established players like Samsung took several generations to stabilise. For Apple, which typically prioritises high-quality mass production, these challenges could significantly…...

Users have also run into strange high-pitched whistling sounds that happen intermittently. We shared the issues back in late October, and despite two subsequent firmware updates, the problems haven't been solved.
