Bloomberg's Gurman says iPhone Duo is just the start; most iPhones could fold in a decade

Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman forecasts that after the iPhone Duo, Apple could roll out foldable models across its lineup, including budget iPhone SE, within ten years as costs drop.

Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, in his latest newsletter, warned that the iPhone Duo should be viewed as only the opening move in a broader shift toward foldable iPhones.

He argued that a ten‑year horizon is sufficient for Apple to extend foldable technology beyond flagship devices, noting that manufacturing cost reductions could make even entry‑level models such as the iPhone SE foldable.

If Gurman's timeline holds, the rollout would signal a major evolution in Apple's product strategy, moving from a single premium prototype to a diversified, foldable lineup.

Why This Matters

A move toward foldable iPhones would reshape the smartphone market, forcing competitors to accelerate their own flexible designs while offering consumers new form factors. For Apple, it could open new revenue streams and reinforce its premium brand by marrying innovation with cost‑effective production, potentially redefining user interaction with mobile devices.
