Larger, high-resolution cover display
Modern foldable phones have raised the bar for external d
isplays. Apple could introduce a larger Super Retina XDR display that would allow users to check notifications, use widg
ets, and run apps right on the external display. Integrating Dynamic Island into the external display could be another unique touch,
providing an intuitive way to access calls, alerts, and other key functions.
Foldable Retina display with ProMotion

ology with a Retina display with a 120Hz refresh rate to provide a smooth scrolling experience and vivid images.
