Apple folding screen is finally coming? Foldable iPad or launched in 2024
Folding screen is a market where major manufacturers will compete mainly in recent years. In particular, the Android camp has launched more than one folding screen phone, and Apple, as the eldest brother, will not give up this place. Recently, it was reported that Apple will launch its first folding screen device in 2024, but not iPhone, but other devices.
On Tuesday local time, CCS Insight, a market research company, released a report saying that Apple may soon start experimenting with folding screen technology and launch the folding screen iPad in 2024. CCS Insight currently predicts thatApple will start with the iPad, not the iPhone, and try folding screen technology.
Ben Wood, research director of CCS Insight, said: "At present, it is meaningless for Apple to launch a folding screen iPhone. We believe that Apple will not follow this trend, but will test the waters through the folding screen iPad." "For Apple, the folding screen iPhone is very risky. First of all, in order not to affect the sales of the current iPhone, the price must be high."
He believes that the price of thefolding screen iPhone may reach $2500. At present, the iPhone 14 Pro Max is the most expensive product in the iPhone product line. The version with the largest storage capacity sells for $1599.
Wood also said that if there were any technical problems with Apple's folding screen phones, they would attract fierce criticism and attacks. However, Apple has no choice but to "respond because folding screen technology is ready". Therefore, Apple will start from the iPad. This move will give Apple a chance to understand how to integrate and expand folding screen technology and inject new vitality into the iPad product line.
To sum up, although Apple has not given up the folding screen market, it seems that it does not have much hope for this. Even the first folding screen device launched is just intended to try water, but only with good sales, it will definitely be synchronized to the iPhone in the future.
