Next week, the iPhone Ultra will be unveiled at Apple’s September event , and today a new Tom’s Guide interview with Mark Gurman reveals several fresh details on what to expect from specs, software, launch timing, and more.
But Gurman was quick to say MagSafe won’t be absent. One week out from iPhone Ultra’s introduction, there are still new leaks arriving. MagSafe, for example, has been a recent question mark for iPhone Ultra. “MagSafe is there. Yeah, all indications that I’ve heard is that MagSafe is in for this foldable phone. On the note of the hinge and durability, he adds: The spec for Apple was to make the foldable phone as durable or at least close to it as any other iPhone. And that’s one of the things that they’ve spent a lot of time working on is the durability. Multitasking was another key area addressed in the interview. Gurman also comments on launch timing, with encouraging news on that front: I would be very surprised if the foldable phone did not come out at the same time as the new Pro phones, or very close to it. So either on the same launch date—a dual launch—or coming out within weeks later. This idea of a late October, a November launch, massive delays, supply chain issues, I don’t believe to be the case.
Gurman previously reported that iOS 27 will enable iPad-like app layouts and side-by-side app multitasking.
When asked about specs for the iPhone Ultra, Gurman mentions: He also talks about two key features: the rumored “crease-less” display and liquid metal hinge. He says the crease isn’t entirely gone, but it’s comparable to the new Samsung foldables and might be even better thanks to the more durable hinge. Today in a new interview with Tom’s Guide , Mark Gurman shared a variety of tidbits—including some details not reported before. Today he adds that drag and drop will be supported between multiple on-screen apps, so you can quickly move data from one app to another.
