The display crease has been one of the biggest challenges in foldable technology
My understanding is that the crease is basically a non issue. You can only see it if you look at your phone in a specific way. And for most applications, you’re not running your finger over it.
And when people inevitably point to the crease, Apple will say, “You’re folding it wrong.”

So, for the price of a nice iPhone and a nice iPad, I could have… a smaller phone and a smaller iPad.
- Could have said the same thing about first iPhone and digital cameras and mp3 players. But this doesn’t necessarily mean they will charge a ton more for it. This is more about R&D.
