Apple\'s first foldable iPhone could lose five features

Apple\'s first foldable iPhone, which could be launched under the name \"iPhone Ultra\", may lack some key features despite being positioned as a top-end model, a report said.

The report said Apple is considering Touch ID in the power button and may simplify the rear camera to wide and ultra-wide lenses.
