Apple's rumoured foldable iPhone (possibly iPhone Flip) might launch in 2026, but display crease, and design are roadblocks.

Been using the fold from 2-6. While this statement is true from 2-4, def untrue for 5 and 6.

iPhone pro max weight 7.81oz. Fold 6: 8.43 oz

7% more weight

iPhone pro max: 8.25mm Fold 6: 12.1mm folded

So about 30% thicker and 7% more weight for essentials double the real estate. Seems like a no brainer for me.
