Apple is ready to enter these new segments but the company wants the product to be the best out there, which means the launch faces delays.

Apple is one of the few big names that has yet to enter the foldable market but much is expected from the company especially with a foldable iPhone in the pipeline mentioned in reports. However, now it seems Apple might have to pause its plans to develop a foldable device, and reports say the company is now revising its timeline to launch the product rather than bring it quickly to the consumers.

So what has forced Apple to delay its launch plans and is the information credible? Well, any news about Apple piques interest and having a foldable in the mix generates more eyeballs. But Apple hasn’t officially talked about foldable which means the actual plans might be some time away.

The tipster says Apple has bought foldables from other brands and uses their design and engineering as a reference point to build its own foldable. For a brand like Apple that situation becomes slightly hard to believe but we’re purely talking details as pointed out in the report.

But it seems Apple has faced issues with tuning the screen of the foldable device as per its standards and quality which definitely going to push the launch timeline of the product. After all, a foldable device is nothing without the screen and knowing Apple’s standards, it is better for the company to bring the best available version rather than roll out a half-baked product.

The likes of Samsung, OnePlus, Oppo and even Huawei have shown us the evolution of the foldable market but there is doubting that Apple is probably the most-anticipated name in this segment and everyone is waiting to see what the company offers with its products.

There is also another confusion about the foldable form factor that Apple will introduce first, could it be a full-fledged fold or a flip iPhone. Or could we see a foldable iPad as the first product from the company.

Lots to decipher here but it seems the company is heavily invested in the mixed reality space where the Vision Pro has finally entered the market, people have bought the device and some have even returned the $3,499 costing headset.
