The very first iPhone was announced by Steve Jobs on January 9, 2007, marking the beginning of what would become a tech staple in the pockets and purses of everyone from teenagers to the elderly. Nearly 20 years later, however, Apple and the iPhone have somewhat fallen out of favor, especially with the release of more innovative (or retro, depending on how you look at it) designs from Android, like its foldable smartphone.

Perhaps in an effort to gain some of that favor back, Apple has been rumored to be designing a foldable iPhone, now known as the iPhone Ultra, since at least 2018. And now, leaked images have given us a closer look at the coming model.
