Apple's foldable iPhone Ultra is expected to debut in just a few weeks, with new leaks shedding light on release timing, availability, and the product's name.

According to Weibo leaker Fixed Focus Digital, the iPhone Ultra will likely launch in September but with extremely limited initial stock. Apple reportedly aims to produce 10 million units, but supply chain challenges could mean it takes 3-5 months for suppliers to reach that target, making the device hard to obtain at launch.

Despite concerns about hinge assembly, mass production appears to be progressing smoothly. Fixed Focus Digital notes that Apple has not indicated any delays to Chinese suppliers, suggesting the launch may still be somewhat global rather than US-only as previously speculated.

Meanwhile, leaker Instant Digital has cast doubt on the 'iPhone Ultra' name itself, speculating that the 'Ultra' designation may be reserved for the upcoming 20th anniversary model and its successors. His assessment, however, remains largely speculative and based on Apple's historical naming patterns.

The leaks collectively suggest a September launch for the foldable iPhone, potentially in more countries than just the US, but with constrained supply and uncertainty around its final branding.
