iPhone Fold tipped for September 2026 release by JPMorgan — with a $2,000 price tag
Some big claims about the iPhone Fold's launch and pricing have been made not by a regular leaker, but by JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee (via CNBC).
Chatterjee agrees with other tipsters that the iPhone Fold is likely to launch in September 2026, as part of the iPhone 18 series launch, and with a price tag of $1,999.
This matches previous claims we've heard from other tipsters, but also differs from some too. We have also heard price estimates of over $2,000, and others hoping for a lower price due to a cheaper total parts cost.
In the report, Chatterjee gives the iPhone Fold's display sizes as 7.8 inches inside, and 5.5 inches outside, as previous rumors have claimed. He also talks about the inner screen having no crease, something we've yet to see on a foldable phone, but something that Apple (and Samsung too) will apparently debut next year.
Apple takes its time
The best foldable phones have been refining their formula for the better part of a decade at this point. So it's impressive in a way that Apple's been willing to hold out so long before launching its own.
While the leaks so far suggest that, beyond perhaps having a surprisingly large battery, the iPhone Fold won't be that revolutionary compared to the competition. But simply being an iPhone may be enough to convince users to buy it.
We've still got over a year until iPhone Fold's rumored release date, and the iPhone 17 series to meet in the meantime too.
Things could still change for the iPhone Fold, and there are plenty of other specs and features we've yet to hear rumored. But there's no doubt this is going to be a phone launch a lot of people are going to pay attention to, even if it does end up costing a cool two grand.

One UI 8 is adding a powerful new Voice Captioning feature, but there's a catch
Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has introduced a new Voice Captioning feature in One UI 8. It's part of Samsung's Galaxy AI suite and goes beyond Live Captions to translate audio, summarize it, and help save the captioned text and audio file. The catch is that the feature isn't available officially yet, so you'll have to download an APK to access it. Samsung has added a new feature called Voice Captioning to its suite of Galaxy AI tools on One UI 8. It allows users to convert speech to text in real time, whether it's from a video, call, or live conversation. What makes it more powerful than Samsung's existing Live Captions feature is its ability to also translate speech into different languages and summarize what was said. While the Live Captions in One UI only transcribes spoken words in the same language, Voice Captioning offers real-time translation of the captions across multiple languages, just like the Live Captions feature on Pixel phones with Live Translate enabled. Moreover, you also get summaries of the captioned media or conversations, along with the ability to save text and audio. The feature was spotted by GalaxyTechie on X, who confirmed that it's officially only available in China for now. However, users can manually install the APK to try it on their Galaxy phones running One UI 8 or One UI 7. Once you install the APK, you'll need to add the Voice Captioning shortcut to your Quick Settings panel and allow necessary permissions. You'll also need to choose supported languages for translations. We tested the APK on our Galaxy Z Fold 7 running One UI 8. After installing the app, we were able to add the Voice Captioning shortcut in the Quick Settings panel, but the app kept stopping unexpectedly. Reports on Reddit also say it doesn't work on beta versions of One UI 8, but some users have had success using it on One UI 8 and One UI 7. If you want to try Voice Captioning before it officially rolls out, you can install the APK, but be aware that it might not work properly on all devices. Otherwise, it might be best to wait for Samsung to release it globally. Follow

Zebra (ZBRA) Q2 Earnings Report Preview: What To Look For
Enterprise data capture company Zebra Technologies (NASDAQ:ZBRA) will be announcing earnings results this Tuesday before market hours. Here's what you need to know. Zebra beat analysts' revenue expectations by 1.4% last quarter, reporting revenues of $1.31 billion, up 11.3% year on year. It was a slower quarter for the company, with a significant miss of analysts' EPS guidance for next quarter estimates and revenue guidance for next quarter slightly missing analysts' expectations. Is Zebra a buy or sell going into earnings? Read our full analysis here, it's free. This quarter, analysts are expecting Zebra's revenue to grow 6.1% year on year to $1.29 billion, improving from its flat revenue in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $3.31 per share. The majority of analysts covering the company have reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Zebra has a history of exceeding Wall Street's expectations, beating revenue estimates every single time over the past two years by 2.2% on average. Looking at Zebra's peers in the tech hardware & electronics segment, some have already reported their Q2 results, giving us a hint as to what we can expect. Mirion delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 7.6%, beating analysts' expectations by 3.1%, and Cognex reported revenues up 4.1%, topping estimates by 1.3%. Mirion traded down 11.1% following the results while Cognex was up 20.9%. Read our full analysis of Mirion's results here and Cognex's results here. The euphoria surrounding Trump's November win lit a fire under major indices, but potential tariffs have caused the market to do a 180 in 2025. While some of the tech hardware & electronics stocks have shown solid performance in this choppy environment, the group has generally underperformed, with share prices down 4.4% on average over the last month. Zebra is up 5.8% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $349 (compared to the current share price of $335.55). When a company has more cash than it knows what to do with, buying back its own shares can make a lot of sense–as long as the price is right. Luckily, we've found one, a low-priced stock that is gushing free cash flow AND buying back shares.
