Apple might be working on a foldable iPhone

There is no surprise that companies are working on a way to make foldable devices a reality. While Samsung is currently leading the race, it looks like Apple might be the latest addition to the list of companies working on foldable devices.

The news comes from Bank of America Merrill Lynch, a Wall Street firm, who said Apple is working with Asian partners to make a whole new iPhone design.

Given the competition in the market, it will be interesting to see who pulls off the foldable phone perfectly and gets a first mover advantage.
