This Apple iPhone Fold concept has been designed by Michal Dufka as a next-generation smartphone imagined from the brand as a solution for consumers seeking a decidedly more sleek mobile device.
The smartphone is imagined as being almost identical to the present models from the Cupertino-based technology brand, but with a few distinct upgrades. First and foremost, the smartphone is imagined with its namesake folding for that closes clamshell style to cut the device's size in half. The exterior of the smartphone is accented by a small, Apple Watch-sized display adjacent to the camera layout for monitoring metrics and incoming notifications.
The Apple iPhone Fold concept also does away with a notch in favor of a single punch hole camera in the display for snapping selfies and taking video calls.
