Dbrand is stirring up chatter again, leaking key specs about the upcoming iPhone Ultra and 18 Pro/Pro Max models just before Apple's major event. Responses from forums display mixed emotions, balancing excitement with skepticism about the leaks' accuracy and potential implications for Apple's marketing strategy.
Dark Cherry and Black are the standout color choices for the iPhone Ultra, widely discussed on forums. Of significant note is the removal of traditional physical volume buttons, raising usability concerns due to a proposed design swap to top-mounted buttons. A user commented,
"This is the second leak showing there are no volume buttons on the side."
However, skepticism looms as other users are debating the reliability of Dbrand's information, emphasizing that they primarily gain device dimensions. A participant stated,
"No they didnโt, god I wish people would stop saying this. All they get is dimensionsโthat's it."
Forums are buzzing with diverse discussions surrounding Dbrand's motives:
Marketing Critique: Some people criticize Dbrand for possibly leaking information mostly to generate buzz rather than provide accurate details.
Pre-order Dynamics: Users highlight that Dbrand's cases are available for pre-order, suggesting they already have the device dimensions. A community member pointed out,
"Even if they arenโt, Dbrand's case is on pre-order so they can have the dimensions for production."
Rising Pricing Woes: The $60 price tag for Dbrandโs cases has raised eyebrows. One participant expressed frustration:
"60 dollars for a case and friggin' sticker!"

As the Apple announcement looms, doubts about the legitimacy of these leaks continue to spread. With opinions both for and against, the impact on pre-orders and overall consumer sentiment will be fascinating to observe.
