Apple is likely counting on iOS fans who have resisted the temptation of getting one of the top foldable phones already available as they wait for a foldable iPhone

I think that has more to do with the fact that folding phones are eye-wateringly expensive. I expect a folding iPhone to cost even more.

I expect it to flop. If it’s ever even released.

I'd hope Apple could engineer the hinge better than that.

It’s called the flip-flop.

We think you’re going to love it!
