蘋果首款摺疊iPhone將於明日凌晨亮相

Quick Look

蘋果首款摺疊iPhone將於10日凌晨正式亮相,成為2026秋季發表會焦點。蘋果已醞釀摺疊技術約10年,曾考慮推出摺疊iPad,最終聚焦手機。該機摺起來如護照大小,內螢幕7.8吋、外螢幕5.5吋,採鈦鋁合金轉軸與康寧客製化玻璃。預計起售價為2,199美元,大容量版可能逼近3,000美元,首年銷量預估700萬至1,000萬支。

Why It Matters

蘋果自2019年三星推出Galaxy Fold前即開始研究摺疊技術,曾內部討論是否推出摺疊iPad,最終因庫克興趣與市場潛力判斷,將重點轉向摺疊iPhone。

蘋果首款摺疊iPhone終於要來了,預計於明(10日)凌晨正式亮相,也被視為2026秋季發表會最大焦點,外界都在等著看,蘋果會如何重新定義摺疊手機。

根據彭博社報導,蘋果布局摺疊裝置其實已經醞釀約10年。早在三星2019年推出初代Galaxy Fold之前,蘋果內部就已投入摺疊螢幕、轉軸等相關技術研究,而前任執行長庫克(Tim Cook)更被視為推動摺疊iPhone真正走向量產的重要推手。

請繼續往下閱讀...

原本一度想先做摺疊iPad

時間回到約2020年,Cook從亞洲出差返美後,看到摺疊手機逐漸形成新風潮,便認為蘋果也應該推出自己的摺疊產品。不過,蘋果一開始其實還沒有決定到底要做哪一種摺疊裝置,工程師、設計師和高層曾長期討論產品方向,甚至一度考慮推出摺疊iPad。

早期其中一個概念,是讓裝置展開後變成更大的平板,外型更接近「可摺疊的iPad mini」。但因為庫克對摺疊手機展現高度興趣,加上蘋果內部也判斷,相較摺疊iPad,摺疊iPhone更有機會打入主流市場,最終才把開發重心全面轉向手機。

當然,要做出符合蘋果標準的摺疊手機並不容易。蘋果在開發初期就鎖定4個最棘手的核心問題,包括螢幕摺痕、轉軸可靠度、柔性螢幕保護玻璃,以及螢幕下相機等相關技術。最終,蘋果採用鈦金屬加鋁金屬打造轉軸系統,並與康寧共同開發客製化保護玻璃,希望把摺痕盡可能壓低。

摺起來像護照 展開更像小平板

至於實際外型,首款摺疊iPhone摺起來大約像一本「護照」,內螢幕約7.8吋、外螢幕約5.5吋,整體概念仍是一支能輕鬆放進口袋或包包的手機,展開後則提供更大的觀看與多工空間,蘋果也致力從軟體優化。

不過,摺疊iPhone也得接受一些取捨。包括耐用度,以及相機規格和電池續航力可能不如傳統旗艦iPhone。即使如此,蘋果內部和市場對這款新品仍相當有信心,市調機構普遍也預估,摺疊iPhone今年銷量可望落在700萬至1,000萬支。

售價究竟賣多少?

至於摺疊iPhone究竟要賣多少錢?彭博社最新消息指出,蘋果原本鎖定最低1,999美元可入手,刻意壓在2,000美元心理關卡以下,但受到記憶體等零組件成本上漲影響,最近幾週則討論將起售價拉高至2,199美元(約台幣69,700元),大容量版本甚至可能逼近3,000美元(約台幣95,000元)。

事實上,目前Android陣營的摺疊旗艦同樣不便宜,三星Z Fold8 Ultra售價從2,099.99美元起跳,Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold至少也要1,899美元。
