Technology media The Information recently shared a report about future iPhones, including information about the foldable iPhone, iPhone SE and iPhone 17.

As for the foldable iPhone, reports say Apple may release it as early as 2026. It is reported that this foldable iPhone adopts a clamshell design, similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip mobile phone series. Apple has contacted suppliers in Asia in recent months to discuss the production of parts for the device, according to reports.

There have been frequent reports about Apple's foldable iPhone in recent years, but there has been no progress. However, recent reports mention that Apple has finally moved forward with the project, and the device is said to be codenamed "V68" within Apple.

It has been reported that Apple has been working hard to eliminate the traces of the folding area of ​​the iPhone foldable screen, but the current technology does not seem to be able to completely eliminate the crease, and Apple can only compromise. It should be noted that if the foldable screen iPhone still does not meet Apple's standards, Apple may still decide not to release it and continue to delay it.

In short, the foldable iPhone still needs to wait for at least two or three years before it is expected to be released.

A recent report from The Information also mentioned news about the iPhone 17 models. The report said that Apple plans to release at least one iPhone 17 model equipped with a mechanical aperture next year. Currently, all existing iPhones have fixed apertures, but some Android flagships already offer variable aperture functions.

The mechanical aperture system allows users to manually set a smaller aperture to take photos with a shallow depth of field effect. Apple already offers this effect in portrait mode, but it is the result of an algorithm, while the mechanical aperture can achieve a natural background blur.

The iPhone 17 is not expected to be released until September next year. There is a saying that Apple will launch a high-end "iPhone 17 Ultra" or "iPhone 17 Slim" model, which may be equipped with a mechanical aperture for the first time. However, it is still early for the release of the iPhone 17, so anything may change at any time.

In addition to the iPhone 16 series in September, Apple's next iPhone to be released is the long-rumored iPhone SE 4th generation. The Information reported that Apple's suppliers plan to increase mass production of this model in October this year.

If the report is accurate, this mass production time means that the iPhone SE 4 is not expected to debut in September with the iPhone 16, but may be released in the spring of next year or before the Spring Festival next year. Currently, all three iPhone SE models were released in March, so the SE 4 may still be released in March.

The leaks about the iPhone SE 4 are already very clear, with new changes including a 6.1-inch OLED screen, Face ID, a power button, and a USB-C port. Overall, its appearance is similar to the standard iPhone 14, but it may still only be equipped with one rear camera, but is expected to use the same fused glass back panel process as the iPhone 16.

I wonder which one you are looking forward to more, the foldable iPhone or next year's iPhone 17? Feel free to leave a message to discuss.
