iPhone Fold Display Leaks: Familiar 4:3 Aspect Ratio in Fully Unfolded Mode
Rumor: iPhone Fold to Retain a Familiar 4:3 Aspect Ratio A new leak from Weibo leaker Digital Chat Station suggests that the fully unfolded display of the anticipated iPhone Fold will feature an approximately 4:3 aspect ratio, similar to older models of the iPad. The screen size is customized but still closely adheres to this familiar shape. This ratio has been consistent across multiple generations of iPads and iPad minis, though newer iPad models have shifted to different ratios.
The leaker emphasizes that this design choice aims for consistency between the internal and external screens and aligns with the iPad's software ecosystem, which could bring iPad-style multitasking features like Slide Over to the iPhone Fold. Previous reports suggested a 7.74-inch diagonal fold-out screen and a 5.49-inch outer screen.
Digital Chat Station has a track record of accurate leaks, though primarily related to camera details. The leaker recently predicted that the iPhone 17 Pro will support 8K video recording.
