We compared the display specifications of the iPad mini (A17 Pro), which appears to be close to the iPhone Fold’s main display, and the iPhone13 mini, which appears to be close to the iPhone Fold’s main display.

Compare iPhone Fold display specifications with other Apple products

AppleInsider has covered the following numbers regarding the display size and specifications of the iPhone Fold.

We compared them with Apple products with similar sizes on the main display and cover display.

Main Display iPhone Fold iPad mini (A17 Pro)
Display size Approx. 7.8 inches 8.3 inches
resolution 2,713 x 1,920 pixels 2,266 x 1,488 pixels
Pixel density 428ppi 326ppi
Cover display iPhone Fold iPhone13 mini
Display size Approx. 5.5 inches 5.4 inches
resolution 2,088 x 1,422 pixels 2,340 x 1,080 pixels
Pixel density 460ppi 476ppi

If the resolution reported this time is correct, both the main display and the cover display will be reduced in height and wider than the size of the display in landscape mode on the iPad mini (A17 Pro) and portrait mode on the iPhone 13 mini.

In that case, the image below will appear to be narrow.

Biometric authentication is Touch ID, and the front camera is a punch hole

AppleInsider expects that iPhone Fold’s biometric authentication will be a side button with built-in Touch ID, but the main display in the image has a notch of the same size as Dynamic Island.

There is rumor that if the iPhone Fold uses the Touch ID as its biometric authentication mechanism, the main display will have a recessed under-screen camera, while the cover display will only have a front camera with a punch-hole design.

The rear camera may have a design similar to the iPhone 16

Perhaps due to restrictions on the internal space of the iPhone Fold, Min Chi Kuo and others had predicted that the rear camera would be two-eye rear camera.
