Details about this future Macbook with a foldable screen are very fragmentary at the moment. However, Kuo says the device will have a 20.3-inch screen, according to the site 9to5Mac. According to Kuo, this Macbook is Apple’s only foldable device “with a clear development schedule”, which suggests that their plans to launch a foldable iPhone or iPad are far in the future.
“I have recently received many inquiries about whether Apple plans to mass-produce a foldable iPhone or iPad in 2025 or 2026. My latest research shows that currently Apple’s only foldable product with a clear development schedule is a 20.3-inch Macbook, which is expected to enter mass production in 2027,” Kuo writes in one posts on X.
It’s not the first time that Apple is rumored to be working on a foldable Macbook. In 2022, Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC) revealed that Apple was toying with the idea of foldable screen laptops.
The veracity of this rumor is debatable. Apple has just entered a new and relatively risky product category with the Vision Pro. A product segment that, despite several years on the back of the neck, has not broken through to the broad masses. That they would launch a Macbook with a foldable screen sounds far too risky, while at the same time it would cannibalize the sales of their own external screens.
However, the computer manufacturer Asus already has a laptop today, Asus Zenbook Duo, with foldable screen. But that Apple would give its entry into a segment that is not often in demand is highly unlikely.
