Apple is reportedly prototyping a roughly 6.96-inch display (about a 7-inch panel) for its upcoming 20th‑anniversary iPhone, potentially the iPhone 20 Pro Max, with the same aspect ratio as the current iPhone 17 Pro Max; Bloomberg previously noted two size options, but final production details remain unconfirmed as rumors about an edge-to-edge, curved-glass design continue to circulate.
A Chinese leaker claims Apple’s battery supplier registered two cells totaling about 4,883mAh (roughly 4.8–5.0Ah) for a foldable iPhone, suggesting a dual-cell, book-style design and fueling expectations for an iPhone Ultra launch alongside the iPhone 18 Pro lineup in September; this figure sits near rival foldables and contradicts earlier rumors of even larger packs, leaving the exact capacity still uncertain.
A leaker citing regulatory filings suggests the iPhone 18 Pro Max will have a significantly larger battery than the iPhone 17 Pro Max (about 5,391mAh in China and 5,567mAh in the U.S.), with the iPhone 18 Pro showing 4,056mAh (China) and 4,288mAh (U.S.). The numbers are unverified and may be affected by factors like the SIM tray. If confirmed, this could translate to roughly a 10% battery capacity increase and longer life, though actual performance depends on chips, display, and optimizations. The devices are expected to debut in early September, alongside a foldable reportedly named iPhone Ultra.
A Chinese leaker claims Apple’s iPhone Ultra 2 has been approved for development, reportedly adopting a book-style foldable design with a 7.8-inch inner OLED panel; Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has floated a fall 2027 release window for a second-gen foldable iPhone, but details remain unconfirmed.
A MacRumors report cites a Weibo leaker, Digital Chat Station, claiming the iPhone 18 Pro will have regional battery differences: roughly 4,056 mAh for the China model (with SIM tray) and 4,288 mAh for the US model (eSIM-only), suggesting only a small year-over-year increase. Rumors also point to the iPhone 18 Pro Max potentially around 5,000 mAh (China) and 5,100–5,200 mAh (international), but these figures are unconfirmed and may come from regulatory databases or sample data. Even with modest gains, battery life could improve thanks to the A20 Pro chip built on a 2nm process and the new C2 modem. The phones are expected in September with features like a smaller Dynamic Island and an upgraded main camera with a variable aperture.
A Weibo leaker claims Apple is testing an iPhone 19 Pro with a quad-curved display that wraps around all four edges and a hole-punch camera, with Face ID reportedly hidden under the panel. This aligns with rumors of a bezel-free 20th‑anniversary iPhone, but hiding both Face ID and the camera may be technically challenging, potentially making the uninterrupted display exclusive to the anniversary model or leaving a cutout on non‑anniversary Pro variants.
Rumors claim the 20th-anniversary iPhone will use a Samsung-made micro-curved OLED panel with a 'pol-less' COE design, producing a bezel-less display that wraps around all four edges; it would feature a crater diffusion layer to even brightness, and while under-display Face ID or an under-display camera could arrive by 2027, these details come from supply-chain leaks and remain unconfirmed.
The upcoming Vivo X Fold 3 is set to be the thinnest and lightest foldable phone with top-notch specs, including a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, up to 16GB of RAM, 1TB storage, a 5,800 mAh battery, and fast charging capabilities. It will feature impressive cameras, including a 50MP primary sensor, 50MP ultra-wide sensor, and 64MP 3x periscope zoom sensor, along with a V3 imaging chip for enhanced photography. With its sleek design and powerful features, the Vivo X Fold 3 aims to rival the Galaxy Z Fold 6 as a flagship foldable phone.
