After 17 years of incremental refinement, Apple is preparing to fundamentally alter the iPhone’s form factor—a move that signals the company’s recognition that flat-slab smartphones have reached design maturity. This isn’t merely a new feature or processor upgrade; it’s an admission that the next growth vector for mobile computing requires a physical transformation, positioning foldables as the primary innovation driver for the next hardware generation. If Apple executes this transition, it will likely force the entire industry to recalibrate their product roadmaps, making the foldable market category a default expectation rather than a niche experiment.
