Foldable iPhone Ultra: Full Rumor Rundown Ahead of Apple’s September Event

Foldable iPhone Ultra

Apple’s upcoming device is set to debut at the “Surprise and Shine” event on September 9, and every detail is sparking speculation. MagSafe charging appears confirmed, despite earlier prototypes lacking the ring, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

Hardware Highlights

The phone will be a mere ↓ 4.5mm thick, forcing Apple to replace Face ID with a side‑mounted Touch ID button. iOS 27, previewed in developer beta, promises robust app‑resizing, multitasking and side‑by‑side windows. Camera setup remains a dual‑lens Wide/Ultra‑Wide pair, while the A20 Pro chip powers performance, likely paired with a Qualcomm modem for mmWave 5G in the US. Color options include silver/white and dark blue; an Apple Pencil accessory was tested but seems unlikely to ship. Pricing is projected at ↑ $2,000 to $2,500 depending on storage, and Gurman expects launch alongside the iPhone 18 Pro line, though supply constraints could cause delays.

“If the crease is invisible, we’ll be amazed,” Gurman said.
