Apple’s latest beta releases of iOS 27 and macOS 27 reveal early clues to two major hardware moves. Mark Gurman highlighted code and UI tweaks that signal a folding iPhone and a touch‑enabled MacBook. The findings arrive just after Apple’s WWDC keynote, tightening the case for new form factors in the coming year and across the ecosystem.

The iPhone Fold clues stem from the iPhone Mirroring app, now stretchable for iPad‑like layouts, and from iOS references to “foldState,” “angleDegrees,” and display counts. These adjustments prepare developers for a device that can pivot between a phone and a tablet‑size screen, demanding new UI adaptability to maintain consistency across device families.

Sidecar’s full touch support across macOS hints at a future touch MacBook, while macOS UI tweaks like pull‑to‑refresh and a pill‑shaped Siri interface point toward a Dynamic Island–style experience. These features suggest Apple plans to merge touch and traditional input on a laptop, potentially reshaping the MacBook lineup and set a new standard for portability.
