For months, we have been talking about a Foldable iPhone, a new device that Apple will launch in 2026and that many people are waiting. However, despite being a great novelty with many features that current iPhones do not have, we will also see it reflected in the price.
And the first rumors already gave us very high price ranges, due to all the technology they will bring. But, over time, this is getting worse, and the latest leaks already suggest that the cost of the foldable iPhone or Fold of 2026 will be even higher.
How much will the foldable iPhone cost?
Apple's first foldable iPhone is generating a lot of expectations, and not only because of its design, but also because of its possible price. According to the most recent reports, This model could be around $2,400 (that is, more than 2,500 euros), a figure that would place it among the most expensive phones on the market. The main reason for this high price would be the use of especially expensive materials and parts, such as the flexible screen and the hinge that allows the device to bend without damage. These two parts represent a good part of the total cost and explain why Apple could go for such a high price.
Despite the price, analysts believe that the foldable iPhone will have a fairly positive reception. It is estimated that in 2026, its first full year on sale, Apple could sell more than five million units. Although the smartphone market may be going through a slower stage, foldable phones remain one of the most striking, and Apple's entry will surely attract many curious or brand-loyal users.
Regarding its features, it is said that the device would include two rear cameras, one main and one wide angle, in addition to two front cameras. It would not be the most advanced model in photography within Apple, but it would offer a balance between quality and foldable design. Some experts even suggest that certain components, such as the hinge, could be cheaper to manufacture than initially thought, which could open the door for Apple to adjust the price later, although it would not really lower it that much.
If everything continues its course, the foldable iPhone could arrive in autumn 2026. It remains to be seen if the public will be willing to pay such a high figure for a format that, although striking, is still taking its first steps within the Apple ecosystem. Something similar to the Vision Pro could happen, and that first version may not attract as much attention until the public sees if it is really worth paying what they ask for the product.
And you, do you think it's worth spending twice as much on a foldable iPhone as on a normal one? How much will the insurance cost? What if we lose it? The truth is that there will be many people who will get it, but many others will be afraid because of its cost, so we will have to be attentive to the market reaction.
