Insider claims Apple's only foldable product with a release schedule is the foldable MacBook - here's why that's so exciting.
We've been talking about Apple's foldable devices for at least as long as Samsung has been actually selling foldable phones. But not all rumors agree on which type of foldable device Apple will make. Some detail Apple's ongoing research and development plans for foldable iPhones. Others claim Apple will launch a foldable MacBook/iPad before a foldable iPhone. Regarding the latter, we also have an actual size for the device.
Finally, unfold the laptop halfway to essentially get a laptop experience where a part of the display becomes a touch keyboard. Or place a Bluetooth keyboard on top of that bottom half to avoid typing on a touchscreen. I would expect a 20-inch foldable MacBook to behave similarly. And here comes the best part. Apple would have to optimize macOS for touch input if it wants to sell a foldable MacBook. If that happens, we could see a slew of MacBook Air and Pro models that support touch input.
