The first foldable from Apple, tentatively called the iPhone Fold<\/a>, is rumored to launch later this year alongside the iPhone 18 Pro series. A new leak now sheds light on its construction and the materials Apple may be using.<\/p>\n According to the leak, Apple\u2019s foldable iPhone will use a hinge crafted from a material known as liquid metal. The rumor also suggests Apple has been experimenting with this material for more than 15 years.<\/p>\n The use of liquid metal is expected to improve hinge durability and minimize stress at the folding point.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the iPhone Fold\u2019s main body will reportedly use a new titanium material that offers greater strength and a lighter overall weight than the titanium used in recent iPhone models.<\/p>\n The foldable iPhone is rumored to have unusual dimensions<\/a> with an inner 7.76-inch panel and a 5.49-inch cover display. It is said to come with dual rear cameras and could be available for purchase<\/a> in early 2027.<\/p>\n![\"iPhone](\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/26\/01\/iphone-fold-liquid-metal-hinge-leak\/inline\/-1200\/gsmarena_001.jpg\")
