Apple’s new foldable device is getting attention in the smartphone market, and leaks suggest the company is actively testing it. Reports indicate that Touch ID may return which is a feature not seen on iPhones for years. The phone is currently called the “iPhone Fold” and it could be Apple’s first foldable, although its official name remains unknown. Here are the leaked specs and features of Apple’s foldable iPhone, and the reason why Face ID may be left out.
According to a well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, Apple’s wide foldable phone will use a side-mounted Touch ID fingerprint sensor instead of 3D Face ID or ultrasonic fingerprint technology. The hardware needed for 3D face recognition occupies significant space, and Apple is reportedly prioritizing a slim design for its foldable device. That’s the main reason why Apple is deciding to drop 3D Face ID.

Rumors suggest that iPhone Fold has a 7.58 inch under-display front camera, a 5.25 inch punch-hole screen, and a 48MP dual-camera setup with a very strong hinge. Experts have already predicted that the iPhone Fold will bring new energy to the foldable smartphone market when it is released in 2026. While Samsung is also working on a wide foldable phone, but the first large horizontal wide foldable is likely to be made by a Chinese company.
