Is this the best headline for this? Seems a little clickbaity
I agree. @Dang, can we update "highly anticipated device" to "foldable macbook" in the title?
Can I just say that the leakers culture we’re in has ruined all the fun in seeing new products coming out? It’s so boring. I get why they’re doing it but still.
All my MacBooks are already foldable
Why does it have to be foldable?
I think Ming Chi Kuo is wrong. It's not a Macbook. It's a foldable iPad.

There is no world in which a foldable, all screen, touch screen Macbook makes sense.

macOS isn't designed for touch. A full screen keyboard is not how people who want to use Macbooks like to type. If you carry a non-foldable keyboard to use with the screen, it defeats most of the purpose of a foldable Macbook.

Meanwhile, iPadOS is touch and is designed to work without a physical keyboard.
