Would you be surprised to know that Apple’s first foldable iPhone will be very expensive? Probably not, considering that foldable devices are generally significantly more expensive than slab-style handsets, and that Apple isn’t known for bargain pricing. So it’s no surprise then.

Analyst Tim Long puts the foldable iPhone in the $2,300 range in the US in a note with Barclays Bank. That would make it almost twice as expensive as the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which starts at $1,199.

The number was shared after a trip to Asia where Long’s team met with suppliers. They said the launch is most likely to take place in late 2026 to early 2027. Long believes the price would limit sales volume, which seems obvious.

Earlier this month, famed Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo put the foldable’s pricing between $2,000 and $2,500, so we’re now basically just narrowing things down. According to Kuo, the device will come with a 7.8-inch folding screen, a 5.5-inch cover display, two rear cameras, a Touch ID power button, and a high-density battery.

He expects it to be around 4.5mm thin when unfolded, and between 9mm and 9.5mm when folded. It should have a titanium frame with a hinge using a mix of titanium and stainless steel.
