Despite facing a lawsuit from Apple for allegedly stealing trade secrets, leaker Jon Prosser is back with eye-catching renders of the rumored iPhone Fold, Apple’s long-awaited entry into the foldable phone market.
Prosser, through his Front Page Tech (FPT) channel, unveiled detailed visualizations of the device in a recent video. This comes months after Apple sued him and associate Michael Ramacciotti in July 2025 for reportedly hacking into a developmental iPhone to leak iOS 26 details. Undeterred, Prosser continues dropping Apple intel, including prior iPhone 17 Pro renders.
The renders depict a book-style foldable akin to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold series, ditching the flip-style Apple reportedly considered earlier. Key highlights include:
- Creaseless Display: Apple allegedly eliminates the infamous fold crease using a pressure-distributing metal plate and liquid metal hinge.
- Screens: 7.8-inch inner display (iPad-like when unfolded) and 5.5-inch cover screen.
- Thickness: 9mm when closed (similar to iPhone 17 Pro Max’s 8.75mm) and a razor-thin 4.5mm when open.
- Cameras: Four total— one on the cover screen, two in a rear bar, and one on the inner display.
- Biometrics and Modem: Touch ID in the power button (no Face ID), plus Apple’s second-gen C2 modem.
- Battery and Colors: High-density cells (rumored 5400-5800mAh per Ming-Chi Kuo), available in black and white.
- Price: Expected $2,000-$2,500 start, possibly branded as “iPhone Ultra.”
These align with prior leaks, like CAD renders from iPhone-ticker.de resembling a modern BlackBerry Passport and posts from ex-leaker Ice Universe. Prosser echoes rumors of a September 2026 launch.
Foldables’ Big Break?
Analysts predict Apple’s move could explode the niche foldable market—from 1-2.5% of global smartphone sales today to 5% by 2028. Will the iPhone Fold finally mainstream the category?
