We\u2019re just a few weeks away<\/a> from the rumored launch of the foldable iPhone Ultra. As we\u2019ve written before<\/a>, excitement for the device is mounting.<\/p>\n A new report from Bloomberg today outlines what people inside Apple who have used the iPhone Ultra love about it.<\/p>\n iPhone Ultra is coming: Real-world impressions<\/p>\n In the latest edition of his Power On newsletter<\/a>, Mark Gurman offers a detailed recap of the foldable iPhone. In particular, he says he has \u201cspoken to several people\u201d who have used the device. Those people say they like these things in particular:<\/p>\n How well it fits in a pocket. Rumors say<\/a> it has a 5.5-inch outer display.<\/p>\n The durability of the hinge.<\/p>\n The new \u201ciPad-like app layouts<\/a>\u201d that take full advantage of the inner display, which reports suggest<\/a> measures around 7.8 inches and is wider than it is tall. <\/p>\n How well it serves as a \u201ccamera viewfinder.\u201d<\/p>\n Multiple reports suggest<\/a> the iPhone Ultra will cost upwards of $2,000. It\u2019s expected to have a main camera and an ultra-wide camera, but not<\/a> a telephoto camera. It will reportedly use Touch ID<\/a> instead of Face ID for biometric authentication.<\/p>\n 9to5Mac\u2019s Take<\/p>\n I\u2019m incredibly excited for iPhone Ultra, and these tidbits from Gurman only make me even more optimistic it\u2019s the device for me.<\/p>\n I was originally skeptical of the foldable iPhone\u2019s form factor. However, as we\u2019ve learned more<\/a> about the specific size and its benefits, I\u2019ve come around to it.<\/p>\n The positive reviews<\/a> of Samsung\u2019s latest\u00a0Galaxy Z Fold 8<\/a>\u00a0have also offered great real-world insight into a very similar form factor to the iPhone Ultra.<\/p>\n There will, of course, be limitations compared to the iPhone 18 Pro. I use an iPhone Air right now, so I\u2019m used to life without a telephoto camera, and a return to Touch ID doesn\u2019t seem like much of an adjustment.<\/p>\n What are your thoughts on the iPhone Ultra rumors? Do you think you\u2019ll buy one this fall?
