Apple will venture into the foldable product market by launching not a smartphone but a tablet, and it will be a reality in 2024 according to… Samsung. In fact, the executives of the manufacturer recently discussed this topic.
According to The Elet, officials from Samsung’s mobile division had a meeting with suppliers last month and among other things they talked about this famous foldable iPad from Apple that would arrive in 2024. Apple therefore would not offer a foldable iPhone to begin with, but a Tablet. By itself, it would be the opposite of Samsung and other manufacturers.
This isn’t the first time we’ve heard of a foldable iPad for 2024, the company CCS Insight mentioned this niche last month. Let’s say the fact that Samsung executives talk about it, knowing that the group is also Apple’s supplier of OLED screens for iPhones. We can therefore imagine that Apple is working with him on this famous foldable tablet.
During the same meeting, Samsung officials would have predicted that the foldable smartphone market would grow by 80% by 2025. To date, Samsung largely dominates the market with a 70% share, thanks to its Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip. .
A few months ago, TM Ron, a Samsung executive, the revealed that the group had sold 10 million foldable smartphones in 2021. This represented a 300% increase over 2020.
