Apple’s long-rumoured foldable iPhone could arrive with a completely different name than expected. According to famous Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the company may avoid the widely used “Fold” branding and instead launch its first foldable smartphone as the “iPhone Ultra.” Here’s more on that. Apple To Call Its First Foldable “iPhone Ultra” In a recent post on Weibo, the leaker suggested that Apple’s upcoming book-style foldable device could adopt the “Ultra” branding. Tipster DCS’s post on Weibo. (Translated via Google Translate) It is important to note that Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman previously reported that Apple is exploring the Ultra branding for future products. However, it was assumed for an OLED touchscreen MacBook and a new AirPods model equipped with cameras and not particularly for the iPhones. Apple is not new to “Ultra” branding. The company has already used the “Ultra” label to signify its top-tier products such as the Apple Watch Ultra, CarPlay Ultra and high-end chipsets like the M1 Ultra and M3 Ultra. MacRumors, in its latest reports, has noted that this naming strategy can also influence domestic Chinese smartphone makers. There are Chinese smartphone makers who are reportedly considering naming their own foldable models “Ultra” as well and they would make these foldables available at a more affordable price point. Apple’s foldable, on the other hand, is expected to sit firmly in the premium segment with a projected price ranging between $2,000 and $2,500. Apple’s Foldable iPhone - What We Know So Far?

The images suggest that the foldable device will have a near-square form factor when fully opened. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman further claims that the foldable iPhone is currently on track for a September launch event. It is largely believed that the phone could debut alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max models. These devices are expected to go on sale roughly a week after their official unveiling. However, it is significant to keep in mind that not all reports align with this timeline. A separate report from Nikkei Asia indicates that the foldable iPhone’s launch could be delayed until 2027 due to challenges encountered during the engineering test phase. In any case, we can expect to have more clarity on the launch date and device name in the coming months. FAQs Q1. What will Apple’s first foldable iPhone be called? Answer.
