Foldable iPhone Ultra Likely Has MagSafe Charging
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports that Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone Ultra will likely feature MagSafe charging despite its ultra-thin 4.5mm design. The device is expected to launch alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models in September.
Why it matters
This confirms Apple's commitment to maintaining its proprietary accessory ecosystem even in experimental form factors, influencing future mobile hardware standards.
Apple's foldable " iPhone Ultra " will likely support MagSafe charging, Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman said in an interview with Tom's Guide .
iPhone Ultra dummy models that surfaced in April didn't include a MagSafe ring, while dummies of the iPhone 18 Pro did. Leaked cases for the device did have a MagSafe ring, making it unclear whether it would support MagSafe charging.
"All indications that I've heard is that MagSafe is in for this foldable phone. They were able to get it into the iPhone Air , and I don't see why they wouldn't be able to get it into the foldable," said Gurman.
