Apple's foldable iPhone Ultra undergoing final production tweaks, launch date still uncertain

Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone, referred to as the iPhone Ultra, is undergoing what Foxconn describes as “final mass-production adjustments,” according to a report from DigiTimes. The wording suggests the company is completing routine refinements rather than addressing a major production problem. Earlier supply-chain reports indicated that mass production had already started, and that Apple plans to unveil the device at its September event alongside the iPhone 18 Pro. Analysts expect the phone to be available for sale shortly after the launch, though initial supply may be limited. The timeline has been the subject of speculation, with some forecasts predicting a delay of up to a year, while more recent assessments suggest any postponement would likely be brief, possibly a month or two.
