Apple’s long-rumoured foldable iPhone may finally be taking shape, with newly leaked renders offering the clearest look yet at what could be one of the company’s biggest design changes in years. The device, widely expected to be called the “iPhone Fold,” appears to adopt a book-style folding mechanism similar to existing foldables, opening into a larger, tablet-like display while retaining a smaller cover screen for regular use.
The leaked CAD-based visuals suggest a familiar yet refined Apple approach
The device is shown with flat edges, a clean rear panel, and a horizontal, pill-shaped dual-camera module reminiscent of recent Pro iPhones. On the front, both the outer and inner displays are expected to feature punch-hole cameras, indicating Apple may be moving away from the traditional notch or Dynamic Island design for this form factor.

Beyond aesthetics, the foldable iPhone could pack significant hardware upgrades. Reports point to a large internal display around 7.8 inches, paired with a smaller external screen near 5.3 inches. Apple is also said to be working on a next-generation chipset built on an advanced process, along with a premium build combining titanium and aluminium.

This development matters because Apple has so far stayed out of the foldable market, even as competitors like Samsung and others have spent years refining the category. Foldable smartphones – devices that transform from compact phones into larger tablet-like screens – have existed since 2018, but adoption has remained relatively niche due to durability concerns and high prices. By entering the space, Apple could bring a level of polish and mainstream appeal that pushes foldables further into the spotlight.
For users, the appeal lies in versatility
A foldable iPhone could potentially replace both a smartphone and a small tablet, offering more screen real estate for multitasking, media consumption, and productivity without sacrificing portability. At the same time, Apple’s focus on reducing display creases and improving hinge durability could address some of the biggest complaints about current foldables.

Looking ahead, timing remains uncertain. While several reports suggest a possible debut around 2026, delays into 2027 are also being discussed as Apple works through design and manufacturing challenges. The company is reportedly prioritising build quality and long-term durability over rushing to market—an approach that could ultimately define how successful its first foldable device becomes.
If these leaks hold true, Apple’s foldable iPhone won’t just follow the trend – it may aim to refine and redefine it.
Serials have become the backbone of the streaming era, especially on Netflix. Serialized television is when a show’s plot unfolds in sequential order over the course of a season. It’s long-form storytelling that typically works best with dramas—Stranger Things, The Crown, etc. Watching the episodes in release order matters. Often, these shows are binged because the complex character arcs and cliffhangers encourage streaming multiple episodes at once.
Serial shows can feel like homework, especially when you fall behind on an episode and need to catch up. That always happens to me, and it leads to anxiety I didn’t want. Thankfully, Netflix offers shows where viewers can jump at any time and not feel lost. These episodic series are perfect for jumping around and picking the episodes you want to watch. One of the most famous comedies ever fits the criteria of an episodic sitcom. Anthology shows, including a Netflix sci-fi classic, are also ideal for watching episodes out of order.
Black Mirror
Welcome to your worst nightmare
Black Mirrorwants to scare you. Charlie Brooker’s sci-fi anthology series has been warning humanity about the dangers of technology since 2011. It seems like ages ago that Rory Kinnear had sexual intercourse with a pig in the first episode. Apologies for the spoiler, but the media’s role in the spread of misinformation has never been more relevant.
Black Mirror features self-contained episodes with a beginning, middle, and an end. There has only been one direct sequel: USS Callister: Into Infinity, a season 7 episode that continues the events of season 4’s USS Callister. Otherwise, feel free to jump around and check out the best episodes of each season. Since most episodes feature bleak endings, I’ll leave you with one that ends on an upbeat note: San Junipero.
Seinfeld
Greatest comedy ever?
Comedies are the perfect vehicle for episodic storytelling. While having an overarching plot throughout a season helps attract viewers, many comedy fans are just looking for a few laughs. Write a self-contained story with numerous jokes over 20 to 30 minutes, and you’re ready to go. Seinfeld, aka the show about nothing, is the ideal escape from serialized dramas.
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a fictionalized version of himself as he navigates the comedic scene in New York City. The show revolves around Jerry’s interactions with his friends George (Jason Alexander), Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), and Kramer (Michael Richards). The gang faces a problem, hilarity ensues, and the episode ends. That’s really all you need to know. Enjoy the laughs.
I hate referring to episodes of television as “mini-movies.” However, that’s how I would describe the eight episodes of Cabinet of Curiosities. Each director puts their own signature style on a story and brings audiences into their terrifying creation. Del Toro wrote two of the episodes, including one about a demon being summoned. Some are scarier than others, but horror fans will feel right at home with this series.
Beat Bobby Flay
Bobby brings the heat
As I’ve gotten older, the Food Network has become one of my favorite channels. I mean, who doesn’t love food? I love eating my (average) home-cooked meal while watching contestants duke it out in the kitchen onmy favorite show, Beat Bobby Flay. The competition breaks down into two rounds. In the first round, two chefs have 20 minutes to construct a meal using a secret ingredient. The winner advances to the main event, where they face off against Bobby Flay.
The challenger gets to pick the dish for the final round, so Bobby has a disadvantage. However, Bobby is an award-winning chef with a few tricks up his sleeves. He can handle making a version of your grandmother’s lasagna. With episodes available on Netflix, be prepared to learn why Bobby always throws chiles into his dishes.
S.W.A.T.
Broadcast TV still knows how to make entertaining programs
The procedural is a genre best produced on broadcast television. Name a cop, doctor, or law drama—chances are it’s a procedural on broadcast TV. While the way we watch television has changed, people still love these types of shows on CBS, NBC, Fox, and ABC. Law & Order, NCIS, and Criminal Minds are procedurals that gained a bigger following thanks to streaming.
S.W.A.T. is cut from the same cloth as Chicago P.D. and CSI. Sergeant Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson (Shemar Moore) is tasked with leading a new S.W.A.T. unit in the LAPD. This action-packed show utilizes a “case of the week” formula in which the team must solve a dangerous situation, such as active shooters and hostage situations. You’re in and out in 44 minutes. What’s better than that?
Netflix has more content coming your way
After you’re done watching these shows, stay on Netflix for more top-notch content. Netflix has an entire section dedicated to thrillers, and this week, The Guilty and El Camino are two of the section’s best. Keep an eye out for new movies, like Alan Ritchson’s War Machine, which is currently in the streamer’s top 10.
