The leaks about the first foldable iPhone from Applehave gained momentum again. New renders shared by leaker Jon Prosser hint at what the supposed iPhone Ultra might look like, a device that could debut alongside the iPhone 18 Pro family in September.
The images suggest that Apple will opt for a wider format than the first foldables on the market. The proposal aims for the device to function as a traditional iPhone when closed and transform into a sort of mini tablet when opened.

Apple would follow the path that Samsung has already taken with its foldables
One of the most striking aspects of the leaks is the conceptual similarity to the recent evolution of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold line.
After years of criticism for the narrow external screens of its foldables, Samsung modified the design with the Galaxy Z Fold 7, incorporating a wider and more comfortable screen for everyday use.
According to the leaked renders, Apple would have adopted a very similar philosophy. The idea is for the phone to feel like a conventional smartphone when closed, avoiding some of the limitations that foldables have historically faced.

An ultra-thin design would be one of its major bets
The leaked information also indicates that Apple is working on an extremely thin device.
According to rumors, the iPhone Ultra would be just 4.5 millimeters thick when opened. That figure would place it among the thinnest phones on the market.

Although it would still be slightly thicker than the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which reaches 4.2 millimeters when open, the result would be very competitive for the first generation of a foldable developed by Apple.
Apple would seek to eliminate one of the biggest problems of foldables
Another detail mentioned in the leaks points to the central crease of the screen.
Apple would be developing a new hinge designed to minimize the visible mark that usually remains in the center of flexible panels. This is one of the most criticized aspects in this product category since its inception.

If the company manages to significantly reduce that effect, it could differentiate itself from several competitors who still face that technical challenge.
The price would also match that of a premium product
As is the case with most high-end foldables, the cost would not be precisely accessible.
The price would also be on par with a premium product
The first rumors speak of a price exceeding 2,000 dollars, positioning it as one of the most exclusive devices within Apple's catalog.
However, the premium segment has shown sustained demand, especially among users looking for innovative designs and cutting-edge technologies.
