New iPhone Ultra details arrive for specs

Next week, the iPhone Ultra will be unveiled at Apple’s September event, and today a new Tom’s Guide interview with Mark Gurman reveals several fresh details on what to expect from specs, software, launch timing, and more. New iPhone Ultra details arrive for specs, multitasking, launch timing, more. Read John Ternus’s full memo to Apple employees on his first day as CEO Chance Miller Sep 1 2026.

Apple’s foldable " iPhone Ultra " will likely support MagSafe charging, Bloomberg ‘s Mark Gurman said in an interview with Tom’s Guide. ‌iPhone Ultra‌ dummy models that surfaced in April didn’t include a ‌MagSafe‌ ring, while dummies of the iPhone 18 Pro did.

Today’s big Poco launch wasn’t all about just the F9 Pro and F9 Ultra. Obviously, the flagships got most of the attention, but the brand has also decided to finally make the ‘vanilla’ Poco X8 official for global markets, ahead of its Indian launch (where the X8 Power is joining it) in a few days.

Leaked cases for the device did have a ‌MagSafe‌ ring, making it unclear whether it would support ‌MagSafe‌ charging. "All indications that I’ve heard is that ‌MagSafe‌ is in for this foldable phone.

The Poco X8 lands many months after the Pro and Pro Max, which both launched in March. The ‘vanilla’ model sports a 6.83-inch AMOLED screen with a 1280×2772 resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and 3,500-nit peak brightness.

They were able to get it into the iPhone Air, and I don’t see why they wouldn’t be able to get it into the foldable," said Gurman. Leaving out ‌MagSafe‌ was plausible because the ‌iPhone Ultra‌ is supposedly super thin, measuring 4.5mm when open.

Poco X8 is official with an 8,340 mAh battery and the Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 SoC.

While there have been rumors that the foldable iPhone could be delayed and launch after the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ models, Gurman says he would be "very surprised" if the foldable did not come out at the same time as the Pro iPhones or "very close to it." "Either on the same launch date, a dual launch, or coming out within weeks later. This idea of a late October, November launch, massive delays, supply chain issues, I don’t believe to be the case," he said.
