Apple’s iPad Fold Ties to iPhone Ultra with Unified Hinge Tech
A new leak suggests Apple’s foldable iPad project remains alive and will share hinge technology with the iPhone Ultra, using liquid-metal hinges and crease-reduction methods to pursue a crease-free 18-inch display. If accurate, this points to a unified foldable platform across devices, potentially reducing development costs, but weight and price concerns (up to about $3,900) and production challenges could push mass production into 2028–2029, with the iPhone Ultra debut expected earlier in 2026.
