Apple cancels ambitious foldable iPad-Mac hybrid project

Apple has reportedly canceled a highly ambitious project involving a hybrid foldable device designed to bridge the gap between the iPad and the Mac. The project, which was described as a personal priority for hardware chief John Ternus, involved a foldable device with a screen size between 16.1 and 18 inches.

Reports suggest the decision to scrap the project stems from high production costs, memory price volatility, and a strategic shift toward more commercially viable products. This move comes as the company focuses on other hardware developments, such as a potential foldable iPhone, as it seeks to balance innovation with economic feasibility.
