To no one’s surprise, Apple’s first-ever foldable iPhone is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about smartphones of 2026. We are getting fresh leaks almost every day adding more clarity on what to expect from the phone. However, nothing much other than the dimensions is particularly known about the design of the first foldable iPhone.
After earlier reports hinted at an unusual form factor, newly surfaced CAD-based renders now reveal detailed dimensions and screen specifications of the upcoming device.
The iPhone Fold has appeared for the first time in CAD-based renders, sourced from design drawings intended for accessory manufacturers such as case makers. German publication iPhone-ticker.de reportedly gained access to these CAD files and shared the initial render, offering an early look at Apple’s foldable phone design.

According to the leaked details, the inner folding display of the iPhone Fold measures 7.76 inches diagonally and carries a resolution of 2713 x 1920 pixels. The outer cover display is said to be 5.49 inches in size with a resolution of 1422 x 2088 pixels, resulting in a distinctly unusual aspect ratio. Dimension-wise, the device reportedly measures 120.6 x 83.8 x 9.6mm when folded, expanding to 120.6 x 167.6 x 4.8mm when fully unfolded.
The renders also reveal camera placement details. The inner display appears to feature an under-display selfie camera, while the outer screen is expected to include a hole-punch cutout for the front-facing camera.
On the rear, the iPhone Fold is shown with a dual-camera setup housed within an oval-shaped camera bar, similar in style to the iPhone Air design.
In line with previous leaks, Apple appears to have deliberately avoided a square-shaped inner display. When unfolded, the iPhone Fold is expected to open in landscape orientation. This design choice could allow seamless compatibility with existing iPad apps right from launch, potentially eliminating the need for developers to optimise their apps specifically for the foldable screen.
When it comes to launch, analysts and experts have been pointing towards a possible gap between announcement and market availability.
It has been repeatedly reported that the iPhone Fold could be officially unveiled in September 2026. However, several recent reports have added that the device may not reach consumers until early 2027.
