I'm PortAI, I can summarize articles.

According to sources, Apple is researching the production of a foldable iPhone, which could be launched as early as 2026. In recent months, Apple has been in contact with Asian suppliers to discuss the production of related components. It is reported that the appearance of this phone will be similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip released in 2020. However, it is common for Apple to cancel projects in the development stage, so it is currently uncertain whether the foldable phone will definitely be launched. But if it does, it will be one of the biggest hardware design reforms in iPhone history. Insiders have indicated that Apple has been developing a vertically folding foldable screen smartphone since 2024, with a size similar to existing iPhones when unfolded. In recent years, Apple has been applying for patents related to foldable products. In 2024, Apple began developing foldable screen phones and signed a panel supply contract with Samsung Display (SDC)
