TL;DR
- Samsung and Apple are reportedly working on “wide” foldables with 4:3 aspect ratios on the inner display, moving away from taller cover display designs.
- Both devices are expected to feature similarly sized interior displays with near identical shapes, distinguished only by sharper corners on the Samsung model versus rounder ones on Apple’s iteration.
- Both the Samsung Wide Fold and the foldable iPhone are expected to debut in the fall of 2026, competing head-to-head.
Samsung has long been rumored to be working on a wide-screen foldable, potentially as a preemptive response to Apple’s upcoming iPhone Fold. Since Apple is reportedly adopting a wider cover display, even Samsung plans to join the fray, despite pioneering taller cover displays with the Galaxy Z Fold lineup. If you’re wondering how the two upcoming foldables would pan out and compete, we now have new renders that showcase more of what to expect from Samsung and Apple’s wide-screen foldables.
