Apple is developing a foldable iPad with a crease‑free hinge design shared with its upcoming 'iPhone Ultra' foldable iPhone, according to multiple leaks from China and reporting by Bloomberg, with the tablet‑sized device not expected to reach customers before 2029.
The foldable iPad project was believed to have stalled last year after a July report claimed that Apple had paused work on a larger‑screen folding tablet due to engineering problems. Bloomberg reported in March that the programme was still alive but facing delays linked to weight and display technology — in keeping with Apple's habit of sitting out the first wave of new hardware and arriving later with a more polished, pricier take.
