It’s dummy unit season

Recent rumors

  • Over the past few weeks, leaks have converged on a foldable iPhone with a passport‑like aspect ratio when closed and a tablet‑like aspect ratio when opened.
  • Reliable leaker Sonny Dickson recently shared a photo of an iPhone Fold dummy unit, alongside rumored dummy units of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
  • The same week, Macworld reported that the device will likely be called iPhone Ultra.

Unbox Therapy’s video

  • The channel released a 10‑minute video showcasing a dummy unit of the iPhone Ultra.
  • The focus is on the physical experience rather than the final hardware design:
    • How the device feels when open and closed
    • Pocketability and button reachability
    • Speaker placement and overall ergonomics
