dbrand’s ‘Touch Grass’ Skin: The April Fools’ Joke You Can Actually Own!

by

On April Fool’s Day, dbrand unveiled a fresh collection of “touch-grass” device skins, which are surprisingly available for purchase.

For many years, April Fools‘ Day has provided an opportunity for businesses to play harmless tricks by showcasing fictitious products that can’t be bought in reality.

Over the past few years, there’s been a gradual shift, as exemplified by Razer’s Skibidi brainrot translator as part of its 2025 prank.

In a fun twist for technology enthusiasts this April Fool’s, dbrand unveils their latest joke: a new series of skins that users are compelled to interact with by touching real grass instead of their devices!

They announced that you can now feel real grass, as the image shows a MacBook Pro adorned with the company’s latest grass-textured cover, in their tweet which also included a link to the product page.

After navigating to the product’s main webpage, you’ll discover additional details about its launch. At the bottom of the page, you’ll find a link to purchase one that suits you personally. You have an option to buy just the skin or combine it with dbrand’s protective grip case for maximum phone safety.

As a gamer, let me assure you, this ain’t no jest! This skin is compatible with an astonishing array of devices, from your trusty iPhone 12 Pro, with its crystal-clear back, all the way to Macbooks, the versatile Nintendo Switch, gaming consoles, and even the Steam Deck handheld by Valve.

Following X’s unveiling, I couldn’t help but dive into the comments section to see what everyone thought about its release.

“This is such an excellent landing page. Great work, very cool,” one user commented.

A different user remarked: “I’d genuinely consider purchasing it just based on its texture. It appears to be delightful to feel and run my fingers over it while pondering things at work.

A third user commented, “The layout on that page is fantastic; I plan to purchase it for a gadget I don’t currently own.

As a tech enthusiast myself, I can’t help but feel a tinge of nostalgia when I witness yet another instance of a tech company unveiling a product that makes us, the tech-obsessed, momentarily disconnect from our beloved devices. Way back in 2023, HyperX introduced grass keycaps designed to make keyboard fanatics like me touch grass even while immersed in our favorite gaming sessions.
