A brand new rumor means that “everybody” at Apple calls the upcoming foldable iPhone the “iPhone Extremely,” although that does not imply Apple will truly go along with that identify.
Apple retains issues like advertising and marketing names underneath a decent lock and key. It’s uncommon, if ever, that the general public learns about what one thing is likely to be referred to as earlier than it’s launched.
Nevertheless, you need to name the system one thing, and it appears a colloquial identify has caught on internally at Apple. A social media post from Mark Gurman means that “everybody calls it the Extremely internally.”
Everybody calls it the Extremely internally. We’ll see what occurs.

The system has been known as the iPhone Fold right here at AppleInsider, with an occasional dip into Extremely. The identify is anybody’s greatest guess at this level, and it appears extremely unlikely that the true identify is understood by “everybody” at Apple.
Whether or not they’re unintentionally appropriate or speaking brazenly about secret product names will not ever be recognized. Nevertheless it will not be lengthy earlier than Apple lastly reveals the product and all of us get to study the identify first hand.
The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Fold are anticipated to be revealed throughout an occasion in September. Whether or not or not the iPhone Fold will truly ship that month is one other query totally.
