They were announced, there was a short period of excitement and discussion, and now its total crickets.
I find it odd that I haven't seen a single person apart from the specialized team riding them. Hard to even find any reviews on youtube for them. As far as i can tell the general public can go out and buy them, so whats the deal, what have reviewers not even used them to make some content.
It looks like they were released to the (edit: European) market less than two weeks ago. A few websites have reviewed them and found them to be expensive.
They are 800 euros for a set that does not include rotors, and they use a proprietary pad design that only comes in semi-metallic.
So they are shockingly expensive compared to the many well proven available options, and if Brembo decides the MTB market is no longer of interest to them, you won't be able to source pads or replacement parts anymore.
Also, like boozed said, I don't think distributors in North America have them yet.
