– Leaked video shows a foldable iPhone dummy unit with ultra-thin design (reportedly 4.5mm when opened).
– Volume buttons appear to be placed on top, matching earlier rumors.
– The unit is a low-quality design model, so conclusions should be tentative.
– High-quality iPhone 18 Pro leaks suggest better iPhone Ultra design models may follow soon.
After seeing a leaked image of a white iPhone Ultra replica
We now have the full video of the same design model. Although this is (clearly) far from the final product Apple will announce at the rumored September launch event, the video does a better job at showing all the sides and angles of the foldable iPhone or at least the dummy. Theirs a sense of excitment but we gotta be carful with these early renderings.
Previous rumors said Apple’s foldable is going to be as thin as 4.5mm when opened
And the design unit in the video does indeed look very thin. We also see the volume buttons, which were long rumored to be placed on top, as awkward as this might sound (no pun intended). It’s quite amazing how they managed to pack everything into such a sleek profile, although there is always some compromises.
Once again, this seems to be a particularly low-quality design unit
So we can’t draw too many conclusions based on it. That said, high-quality design models of the iPhone 18 Pro were leaked very recently, showing us the colors Apple has reportedly chosen this year. If the foldable iPhone is indeed launching together with the iPhone 18 Pro, it’s quite possible that we might get more leaks of better iPhone Ultra design models very soon.
Conclusion and future expectations
The device appears to have a seamless hinge mechanism and the display looks extremly clear even in the video. We can only wait and see if future leaks confirm these design choices or if Apple changes the entire form factor before the launch. Keep in mind that nothing is official until the company makes an announcement at the event.
