The Folding MacBook from Apple: Both Good and Bad News

Apple is reportedly developing a foldable 20.3-inch MacBook, but commercial production is not expected until 2027, according to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.

Although this seems like good news—we would definitely be interested in a compact Apple laptop with a large screen—there is actually a lot to discover from Kuo's brief tweet about it.

"I've been asked a lot of questions lately on Apple's plans to mass-produce the foldable iPad or iPhone in 2025 or 2026. 

According to my most recent survey, the 20.3-inch MacBook, which is anticipated to go into full production in 2027, is the only foldable device that Apple presently has a defined development schedule for," Kuo noted.

This suggests that, despite recent rumors indicating that these items are being developed, the much-discussed foldable iPhone and iPad remain very, far away from mass production.

Regarding the foldable MacBook, there have been years of rumors circulating about it, but nothing concrete has emerged as of yet. 

Though Kuo claims to have a "clear development schedule," a lot may happen between now and 2027, like Apple altering its intentions or giving up on the project entirely.
