Apples Foldable Tipped to Launch as iPhone Ultra; Price and Memory Configurations Leaked

Apple’s first foldable iPhone has recently been revealed in a number of leaks that suggest its storage options, pricing and hardware potential. The device is often described in reports as the iPhone Fold, although one leak suggests it may launch with a different name. Following the introduction to Apple’s more affordable iPhone 17e, which has shifted focus on its premium models expected later this year, interest in the handset has increased after it launched. Apple has not confirmed the device yet, but several reports suggest it could be available in September.

Apple ‘iPhone Ultra’ Moniker, Pricing (Anticipated)

One of the Weibo posts by tipster Instant Digital (translated from Chinese) suggested that “the foldable iPhone could launch in China with three configurations” – it was available for CNY 15,999 (roughly Rs. 512GB at CNY 17,999 (roughly Rs. 1,14,400), the 256GB in 2,14-400). CNY 19,999 2,41,100), and the 1TB at CY 19,99 (roughly Rs. 2,67,900), and 1,67. These prices range from around $2,330 (about Rs. 2,15,200), $2,621 (roughly Rs. The s 2,42,100), and $2,913 (roughly Rs. Based on the rate of current exchange, 2,69,100), respectively.

A MacWorld report notes that Apple generally adjusts pricing in other markets, but a similar trend is to make adjustments. For instance the 256GB iPhone 17 Pro sells for $1,099 (roughly Rs. CNY 8,999 (roughly Rs. 500) – 1,01,500), US but cost CY 8,99 (about 1 lakh). A lower direct conversion of 1,20,600) in China despite the low-reference to s.

According to the publication, based on similar pricing changes, the foldable iPhone could cost around $1,999 (roughly Rs). The 256GB model has 1,84,700 variants (512GB and 1TB variant) which may cost $2,199 (roughly Rs. The s 2,03,100) and $2,399 (roughly Rs. Paraphrasing 2,21,600)

Similarly, another Weibo user (Whylab) from Chinese has suggested that Apple may call it the iPhone Ultra instead of iPhone Fold. The name would be in line with Apple’s use of the Ultra branding for products like the Apple Watch Ultra and the ultra versions of its M-series chips.

But the same spokesman predicted that entry would be much less, just over CNY 10,000 (roughly Rs. 1, 34,100), . But this estimate is sharply different than any other leaks and remains uncertain.

A separate report from The Bell says Samsung could provide the 12GB RAM modules for the foldable iPhone. That is said to be equivalent to the memory configuration of other Apple handsets, including the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro.
