A foldable iPad makes just a bit more sense than a foldable iPhone

There's a (really slim) chance that Apple might launch a foldable iPad. 

The rumor comes from IHS Markit analyst Jeff Lin (via Economic Daily News via 9to5Mac), who claims Apple is quietly working on such a device with plans to launch it as soon as next year.

Details about the folding iPad are slim: Apparently, it will support 5G, and will have a screen nearly as big as the MacBook, but we don't know any details on the folding mechanism, the device's size when folded, screen resolution etc. 

The rumor, while far-fetched, isn't completely out of the realm of what's possible. Apple did file patents for a foldable device with a flexible display, and its competitors, including Samsung and Huawei, have announced foldable phones (though the launch of either didn't exactly go as planned). It's certainly possible to launch a foldable tablet, and in fact it already sort of exists — Lenovo's Yoga Book fits the bill, though you could also call it a dual-screened laptop.  Read more...
