Apple is cooking up something that could shake things up in the smartphone world. Imagine a thinner iPhone that practically slips into your pocket like a secret agent, and maybe even one that folds! Sounds wild, right?
According to the Wall Street Journal, inside Apple, whispers hint at plans for these new devices to hit the market as early as 2026. Can you picture it? A foldable iPhone boasts a display more prominent than the current Pro Max model’s impressive 6.9 inches. That’s not just an upgrade; it’s like going from regular popcorn to extra buttered, cinema-style popcorn!
The timeline looks pretty interesting, too. Starting in 2025, we might see an iPhone so sleek that it could rival your favorite credit card, thinner than the current 8-millimeter profile of today’s models! And here’s the kicker: this beauty is expected to be more affordable than those fancy Pro versions while simplifying its camera system. Because let’s face it, sometimes you want to snap a quick pic without deeply exploring complex settings.
But wait, there’s more! In case you’ve been living under a rock (or maybe just avoiding Apple news), they recently unveiled some exciting titles coming to their Apple Arcade. We’re talking about four RPGs from none other than Square Enix, arriving in December and January!
This lineup includes fan favorites like Final Fantasy 4 (3D Remake)+ and Trials of Mana+, which will be available on January 9. For those uninitiated souls out there, ‘+’ versions mean no pesky monetization, goodbye ads, and in-game purchases!
If you’re curious about what else is rolling into Apple Arcade, think classics: Talking Tom Blast Park, Boggle: Arcade Edition, and even our favorite Pac-Man 256+. It’s like they threw all our childhood dreams into a blender and hit puree.
- Date: January 9 – New releases include Gears & Goo (Vision Pro), Three Kingdoms Heroes, Rodeo Stampede+, and It’s Literally Just Mowing+.
- Amenities: All games come without any monetization issues typical of standard App Store offerings!
Do you see where I’m going with this? If Apple can pull off these innovations while keeping gamers happy with accessible content on their platforms, well, let’s say I might have to reconsider my long-held stance against their ecosystem.
I’m curious about how these developments will affect your gaming habits or if you’ll jump ship from your trusty Android device when these new iPhones land. What do you think? Are foldable phones the future or just another gadget destined for tech nostalgia?
