That means it might work like an iPhone that can open up to a tablet with a screen slightly larger than the 7.9-inch display on an iPad mini. The foldable model is now a "must-have" for major smartphone brands, Kuo said in a note to clients. Samsung, Huawei and Xiaomi have each introduced models, though the price still make them relatively inaccessible to most consumers. Kuo said Apple is poised to lead the foldable device trend, which he said "will blur the product segmentations between smartphones, tablets, and laptops."
