Summary
A new leak says Apple’s first foldable iPhone may debut in just one white version, with initial shipments limited to about 11 million units.
Higher component costs, design complexity and durability concerns appear to be driving the narrow launch, letting Apple avoid broader color testing and production risk on a first-generation foldable.
Dummy-unit images point to a passport-style foldable design with two rear cameras and top-mounted volume buttons, while Face ID is seen as unlikely because of engineering constraints.
The device could still offer one standout spec: a rumored 5,400-5,800mAh battery, as Apple takes a cautious entry into a foldable market rivals have struggled to turn into a mass success.
