Industry analyst and reliable Apple leak source Ming-Chi Kuo states that the innovative device is set to arrive in 2026, using a display from a major rival.
Foxconn will handle assembly and is expected to start the project in the third quarter or late fourth quarter of this year, according to Kuo. The display will be manufactured by Samsung Display (SDC).
