Suddenly, 3 new Apple phones are exposed!

Although Apple has not yet released a foldable screen device, it is actually quietly preparing for the first foldable screen iPhone, foldable screen iPad, foldable screen Mac and other products. And Apple is already laying the groundwork for these foldable screen products. Although the actual machine has not been released yet, based on the latest exposure of Apple’s operating system, targeted layout has been made. According to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, WWDC2025 held in June this year will not only launch iOS 19, but also iPadOS 19 will officially debut. And this time iPadOS 19 is closer to MacBook in terms of operating experience, with comprehensive multitasking capabilities, and even has the ability to replace MacBook to a certain extent. Foreign media 9to5Mac is more radical, believing that Apple’s move is aimed at creating three new Apple phones, namely the foldable screen iPhone, foldable screen iPad, and foldable screen Mac mentioned by Jige earlier. You should know that Apple’s first iPad was released on January 27, 2010. Although it was released later than the iPhone and Mac, it is not intended to replace these two Apple devices. As an independent Apple device, the iPad was mainly designed to supplement the shortcomings of the iPhone’s small screen, so early iPads and iPhones used the same iOS operating system. Until 2019, Apple also launched its first iPadOS, an operating system specifically designed for iPad, completely separate from iOS. This is all because the iPad is occupying an increasingly important position in Apple’s product line, and this year’s iPadOS will usher in an epic upgrade, where multitasking processors and cross platform operations need to be coordinated to make device switching smoother for users. The folding screen iPhone, folding screen iPad, folding screen MacBook and other products have similar forms, and Apple must consider the UI interface and operating experience after unfolding the folding screen. That’s how to switch apps more intuitively and conveniently through a large screen experience, making it easier for Apple fans to get started. In addition, all Apple applications need to be adapted to different forms of foldable screen devices. For example, if the folded iPhone screen size is 7.8 inches, multiple window conventions and application switching experiences need to be added to the iOS series interface. The same application, when switching from a foldable iPhone to an 18.8-inch foldable iPad, not only requires synchronized interface switching, but even the UI interface needs to be immediately adapted. The switching process needs to be very smooth, and even on larger foldable MacBook devices, a similar adaptation interface is required. And the iPad OS is responsible for this task. Ji Ge believes that in the future, Apple will pay more attention to the consistent experience of various products, so we will see that iPadOS will affect the design of iOS and MacOS. According to Mark Gulman’s latest revelation, the foldable iPhone is expected to be released as early as the end of 2026, the foldable iPad may have to wait until 2027, and the foldable MacBook may be even later, probably until 2028. The truly epic update will start with the foldable iPhone. It is expected that the internal screen of the foldable iPhone will be based on iPadOS, while the external screen will be based on iOS. The presentation of the application interface will be different, but the switching will be smoother.
