Apple is said to be working on its first foldable iPhone which is expected to launch later this year. Now an online leak has revealed the likely design of Apple’s first foldable iPhone. As reported by MacRumors, a Weibo leak has revealed the expected design of foldable iPhone. As per the leak, the first foldable iPhone from Apple is said to feature a book-fold-like design same as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series.

Apple Foldable iPhone: Likely design

The leak further suggests that the volume button will be placed on the top edge aligned to the right same as the iPad mini. The Touch ID power button and the Camera Control buttons will be located on the right edge, while the left side will be smooth and will not house any buttons.

The front-facing camera will feature a single punch-hole design which means that the smartphone will house a smaller Dynamic Island. The rear of the smartphone will use an iPhone Air-style plateau with two horizontally arranged cameras, microphone, and flash. Unlike previous models, the plateau will be entirely black, regardless of the device’s body colour.Leaks suggest the foldable iPhone will launch in white and one additional color, giving customers just two choices.

Touch ID to make a comeback on the foldable

According to Jeff Pu (via 9to5Mac), the iPhone Fold will unfold to reveal a 7.8-inch display, with a 5.3-inch cover screen for handling quick tasks without opening the device. Here’s the twist: Apple is bringing back Touch ID instead of using Face ID. That’s a pretty significant shift for a flagship device, especially one breaking new ground.The camera setup includes dual 48MP sensors on the back and 18MP selfie cameras positioned on both screens. You’ll get one for video calls when the phone is folded and another for the main display. Apple is mixing titanium with aluminum for the body, a different approach from the all-aluminum construction of the Pro models. The Fold packs 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and runs on Apple’s new C2 modem.
