Apple building top-secret product that looks NOTHING like we’ve ever seen before

APPLE is reportedly working with LG to develop a foldable product that is unlike anything we have seen in the past.

LG Display is working on a foldable 17-inch glass panel for HP, according to a new report by Digital Trend.

Apple is reportedly working with LG to develop a foldable product that is unlike any we have seen in the past.

The screens, which are being developed with Apple, are reportedly entering production later this year to be used for 11-inch HP laptops.

Also in the works for Apple and LG is a second foldable panel that may blend an iPad, MacBook, and a monitor into one, Digital Trends reported.

Both the HP and Apple screens will utilize OLED light technology and offer 4k resolution.

It’s not clear how large the Apple screen will be, but it could measure 20 inches, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

The panel “is being designed for tablets and notebooks with ultra-thin glass as the cover window instead of polyimide,” according to The Elec.

Experts have predicted the device might work with a full-size on-screen keyboard when folded.

When unfolded, the product could act as a monitor to be used with an external keyboard.

Other rumors suggest that Apple may be working on a foldable iPhone as well, though these have not been confirmed by the tech giant.


Talk of a collapsible iPhone initially started up in 2021, with analysts such as Ming-Chi Kuo predicting it would launch sometime in 2023 or 2024, per MacRumors.

Though it appears that 2025 is a more realistic timeline for Apple, according to a report by Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC) analyst Ross Young.

One possible reason for the delay could be Apple’s concerns over an uncertain market for collapsible smartphones.

Still, despite Apple’s potential tentativeness, many industry watchers expect the foldable smartphone market to grow to 27.6 million units by 2025 – a nearly fourfold growth from last year’s 7.1 million units.

News of the delay of the long-rumored iPhone struck a nerve with many Apple fans, who took to social media to express their frustration.

“Damn it. That iPhone fold better be flawless,” one user wrote on Twitter.

“I want a foldable iPhone. I’ve been thinking of getting the fold 3 but my life revolves around Apple’s ecosystem. Anyways hope it’s the best when it comes out,” a second user added.
