We don’t know yet whether Apple will call it the iPhone Fold, iPhone Ultra, or something else — but everyone expects the company to announce its first foldable phone later this year. Via Sonny Dickson, these dummy unit photos give us our closest look yet at what we expect the design to be.
The foldable iPhone will feature an approximately 7.8-inch screen when unfolded, giving an effective inner screen area similar to an iPad mini. As shown by these dummy mockup models, the front-facing camera will be positioned in the top-left corner of this screen.
Meanwhile, the outer display is about 5.5-inches in size. When closed, the Fold’s aspect ratio is slightly shorter and squatter than modern iPhones, almost like a passport-style form factor.
The inner camera is paired with two external-facing rear cameras. The device will not feature Face ID biometrics, instead offering Touch ID fingerprint recognition through the side button for device unlock and Apple Pay usage.
Interestingly, Dickson believes Apple may not offer multiple colors of the Fold. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman previously indicated that Apple would offer the foldable iPhone in black and white, but Dickson suggests that white may be the only option.
