Apple has not launched any iPhone Ultra as yet. However, there is mounting proof, based on supply chain news and insider reports that the tech giant is working towards its next big iPhone: the rumored iPhone Ultra which will feature a foldable design and other groundbreaking features like never before.
According to rumors, Apple might be getting ready to announce the release of its first foldable phone that will offer top tier AI capabilities along with a new, higher end premium iPhone category.
While Apple has not joined the race against the likes of Samsung and Google to develop foldable smartphones, it has been watching these brands’ progress over the past few years. According to industry analysts, the time is ripe for the tech giant to launch a foldable product since the foldable technology is now mature enough to offer a premium experience with an iPhone.
Not only will the rumored device mark Apple’s entry into the foldable smartphone world, but it will give users an opportunity to enjoy a combination of the benefits of a smartphone and a large tablet. Furthermore, the foldable form factor will give way for Apple’s innovations in terms of integrating advanced artificial intelligence technologies into a phone.
Below, we will discuss six of the main features the iPhone Ultra might have.
As the rumors claim, the biggest highlight of the device will be its ability to fold open like a book. Apparently, the device will feature a standard smaller display that will serve daily purposes and, once the foldable screen unfolds, users will get access to a much larger one.
Thanks to this feature, users will no longer need to carry two different devices, as the bigger screen will enable them to do more while staying compact when folded.
With the iPhone Ultra’s larger inner screen, users will be able to perform numerous functions simultaneously, play games, watch movies, and edit videos without any discomfort. In addition, developers report that Apple has been working on software updates specifically designed for using the expanded screen.
Along with te foldable display, the rumored iPhone Ultra will have a new version of Siri updated with more advanced AI features. The new software will enable Siri to understand contexts better, perform complex tasks, and enhance the user’s productivity.
The foldable device might become a flagship product where Apple’s new AI developments will be demonstrated to customers.
According to rumors, Apple might implement an advanced camera system in its next product. Though detailed specifications are not available yet, the new device might still boast better photo and video recording options.
Some of the reports claim that the company plans to return to Touch ID via a fingerprint scanner embedded in the power button. Due to the nature of foldable phones, Apple might need to use a different option for securing users’ data.
Moreover, some experts claim that Apple might be optimizing iOS 27 for use in the device. The operating system will be capable of adapting applications automatically when the phone opens up or folds down.
The new iPhone Ultra might come with a number of downsides, too.
According to rumors, the iPhone Ultra might lack a number of features found in current devices such as Face ID, a telephoto camera lens, MagSafe, the Action button, and a SIM card slot.
Industry experts believe that the upcoming iPhone Ultra will be the priciest phone offered by Apple. Several sources claim that the starting cost of the device might go beyond the iPhone Pro models, meaning that the price might be somewhere around $2,000 for the base model. If true, the iPhone Ultra will become the most expensive device in Apple’s history.
It seems that producing a foldable iPhone is a rather difficult task, as it requires special attention to be paid to the hinge’s durability.
Experts believe that one of the main reasons why Apple has delayed its launch might be due to difficulties encountered in manufacturing foldable phones.
According to rumors, the new iPhone may launch together with the new generation of products in September 2026.
It seems that the rumored iPhone Ultra will bring an entirely new product category to the existing lineup with innovative foldable design and powerful AI powered technologies.
However, it is still unclear whether or not people are willing to spend thousands on a foldable smartphone.
