YouTuber Vadim Yuryev of Max Tech has released dummy models of the anticipated foldable iPhone. The images show for the first time exactly how the iPhone Ultra will compare to the iPad mini and iPhone 17 Pro Max \u2013 with some surprising details.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hardware details<\/a> for the iPhone Ultra are becoming more concrete week by week. Following information<\/a> about the camera control button and the eSIM-only decision, we now have our first visual comparisons with other Apple products. Vadim Yuryev<\/a> of Max Tech received dummy models of the foldable iPhone and placed them next to real Apple products. The images reveal a lot about the final design \u2013 and give Apple fans a first realistic impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple dummies are physical mock-ups, usually sourced from the accessories industry. They are manufactured so that case manufacturers can design compatible cases in time for the launch \u2013 and therefore give us a fairly accurate impression of size, proportions, and button layout. The images shared by Max Tech confirm key rumors: The iPhone Ultra, when unfolded, is similar in size to an iPad mini and, when folded, has a relatively narrow outer display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The size when unfolded: almost like an iPad mini<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rumors suggest the iPhone Ultra's inner display will have a 4:3 aspect ratio \u2013 like the iPad. When unfolded, it will measure 7.8 inches. For comparison, the iPad mini has an 8.3-inch screen. The difference is therefore small, but the iPhone Ultra will remain slightly smaller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is remarkable because Apple is entering a new product segment. The iPad mini was previously the most compact iPad option for on-the-go use. With the iPhone Ultra, Apple has created a device that brings the iPad mini functionality to an iPhone format \u2013 and transforms into a tablet when unfolded. For users who currently use both an iPhone and an iPad mini, this device could become an attractive option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gaming factor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Compared to the iPhone 17 Pro Max in landscape mode, the iPhone Ultra, according to Yuryev, has virtually the same width but a display that is 56.9 percent taller (71 mm versus 111.5 mm). This has concrete practical advantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
