Foldable iPhone Reportedly Facing Mass Production Issues

Apple’s first foldable iPhone is reportedly facing yield problems during pre-assembly, not at the hinge.

The issue is tied to surface-mount technology and adds to earlier concerns about quality control and schedule slips.

Despite the manufacturing hiccup, multiple sources still expect Apple to launch the device in fall 2026.

The report suggests Apple may need to work through production challenges before scaling the foldable iPhone.
