    Apple's first foldable device may not hit its previously expected 2025
    schedule for mass production, based on new comments made by Haitong analyst Jeff Pu.

    In a May report, Pu said Apple's first foldable devices would reach mass production in 2025 and 2026, following increasing evidence of foldable
    devices in Apple's supply chain. At the time, the analyst said Apple would likely release a large-screen foldable iPad or MacBook in that timeframe
    before launching a higher-volume foldable iPhone in late 2026.

    Pu had said one Apple foldable with a 20.3-inch display would start
    production in late 2025, which was sooner than previously expected.
    However, Pu now thinks Apple will join the foldable market in the second quarter of 2026 due to "display durability issues."
