Apple Foldable iPhone Drops Telephoto Lens for Dual Displays and Bigger Battery, CEO Says

Summary
Apple’s new foldable iPhone sacrificed its telephoto lens to fit a dual-display design and a larger battery, according to SonicEdge CEO Moti Margalit.
Margalit said the compromise reflects a broader hardware squeeze across new devices, where thinner designs and tighter integration force manufacturers to cut whichever component seems least essential.
First reactions to Apple’s foldable have cited hazier photos and a more visible under-display camera, underscoring the user-facing cost of those space-saving decisions.
SonicEdge argues those tradeoffs are not inevitable if companies redesign batteries, speakers and hinges before finalizing the chassis, leaving consumers to judge which features matter most.
