There is no information on any launch window of the device. These are just renders. It is possible that Apple is looking at a foldable device in the future. The renders make the upcoming foldable iPad more in line with Huawei's foldable offering than Samsung’s. The display folds on the outside which means that when you fold the device, you will have a screen on both sides. Other reports online suggest that Samsung recently presented Apple with a foldable device. This device is smaller than Samsung’s own the Galaxy Fold. The device which Samsung showed Apple is 7.2-inch in size. It remains to be seen whether this rendered device is 7.2-inches when unfolded.
Apple is already late to the foldable device party. although, it could be said that the Cupertino-based tech giant is working to perfect its design before it makes it official. At MWC 2019, many smartphone manufacturers showed off their foldable concepts. Huawei, Samsung, TCL, Xiaomi and LG have shown their take on foldable devices. All these are concepts and while some of these devices have launch windows, no one really got in-depth hands on time with any of the foldable devices at MWC 2019.
