Apple has not confirmed what it will announce, but analysts expect a greater focus on AI-powered devices in addition to the folding phone.
A recent CNET survey found 75% of U.S. adults say they have no interest in buying a foldable cellphone.
But CNET says the foldable iPhone could come at a steep cost of over $2,000. The outlet says the phone is expected to include a 5.5-inch outer screen and a 7.8-inch inner display.

It would not be the only foldable smartphone on the market. Google and Samsung are also among companies that produce foldable smartphones. Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 that recently was released retails for $2,000.
