Apple\u2019s long-rumoured foldable iPad has been delayed<\/a> and seemingly shelved<\/a> to the point where it may never be released, according to a new report from\u00a0Bloomberg\u2019<\/a>s Mark Gurman.<\/a><\/p>\n While speaking with those in the know, Gurman reports that the 20-inch foldable iPhone may never \u201csee the light of day.\u201d Instead, the device that the newly appointed Apple CEO John Ternus<\/a> has been helping to develop, \u201cmay end up being a wacky experiment.\u201d<\/p>\n Last year, many credible reports surfaced about Apple\u2019s first foldable iPad. At the time, it was claimed that the company was working with Samsung Display on an OLED panel capable of rendering a minimal crease. The device is said to offer a roughly 20-inch display, weigh around 3.5lbs and offer the same core experience as contemporary iPads.<\/p>\n It was reported that due to the technology going into the device, its size, and sheer power, the device would be priced around $3,000 USD (roughly $4,200 CAD). Early reports indicated that production wouldn\u2019t begin until 2026<\/a>. Mizuho Securities once suggested a potential release would arrive in 2027. However, later reports from Gurman indicated that plans shifted and the foldable iPad wouldn\u2019t be released until 2029 or later.<\/p>\n
