Foldable Apple iPhone Will Reportedly Use Liquid Metal Hinge to Reduce Creases on Display

There’s foldable housing, and then the rumored foldable Apple iPhone that may be released next year. The device will reportedly use a liquid metal hinge not only for durability, but also to reduce creases on the screen, a common problem with current foldable smartphones, like the Galaxy Z Fold6 and even the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate.
This component will be crafted via a die-casting process by Dongguan EonTec, Apple’s purported exclusive supplier. The technique aims to improve screen flatness and reduce the crease marks that have plagued foldables. Apple has already used liquid metal for minor components like SIM ejector pins in the past, but this marks its first significant application in a critical part, signaling a practical step toward refining foldable tech without overhyping the shift. Production is expected to begin in Q4 2026, with the official reveal coming in early 2027.
