all right in the collector world of Standards typically old items of tech aren'' t actually all that intriguing like that intends to acquire an iPhone 6 now the top most searched for piece of technology in The Collector globe is the manufacturing facility secured unopened initial iPhone currently enjoyable fact back when we went to go make that uh reviewing every single apple iphone video we did need to go back and also find and acquire a functioning variation of every single iPhone ever made and also the additional back you go the tougher it is to discover a working variation as well as we ultimately did discover a couple like these three initial utilized but still functioning iPhones from 2007. possibly it'' s due to the fact that they ' re 16 years old they are actually batter yet the reality that they ' re still functioning is sort of a wonder locating one that is original still sealed never been opened up never ever even been touched by human hands or seen by human eyes is extremely uncommon it'' s so uncommon that'I ' ve actually seen lots of people get scammed by this an unopened apple iphone is so uncommon and valuable that people will actually secure a made use of original apple iphone and also sell it online as an original and also man YouTubers have actually fallen sufferer to this investing hundreds of bucks to attempt to obtain their hands on what they thought was going to be an unblemished apple iphone it'' s simply crazy that individuals go out scamming like this yet hey the difference in value between just any kind of old original iPhone as well as a new sealed untouched iPhone is enormous as well as it'' s well worth the cost of the cellophane and the warm weapon and the effort called for to make an old iPhone appear new only concerning 6 million very first gen apples iphone were ever offered and also so of course the number of unopened ones will only ever before go down from here as well as it'' s kind of this unusual video game of attempting to determine when their worth has actually peaked and also looking at the numbers it in fact feels like it has actually come to a head so one in fact offered at an auction in February this year for over sixty thousand bucks which was a record and the highest possible we'' ve ever seen after that one more one appeared at a public auction in March a month later on that a person went for fifty five thousand dollars then there was one with this fortunate you sticker a lot more rare they probably assumed they were going to get one of the most money for it yet it actually rose at an auction a couple of weeks ago in Chicago and someone scooped it for only forty thousand dollars I guess they obtained a little a discount since that person was me as well as this is the plan it came in uh because that public auction residence was not playing around it was in fact type of unique winning this public auction simply for the record it'' s not like a normal auction website like ebay.com where you simply click a switch as well as you win this is a real auction like a real-time streamed video clip of an individual with a gavel going to obtain 6000 over right here 6500 in the front row we got 6 800 on the phone till we hear 7 thousand 7 thousand below and also it just maintains going and also you can participate from throughout the globe so they were experiencing a bunch of things and also the apple iphone was item number 203 therefore when they reached 203 I logged into the site and also I had my first deal put which was the minimum of 32 000 the components have actually been x-rayed validated going once going two times sold to the on-line bidder proceeding I just won like that was the moment when I dedicated to uh figuring this whole point out therefore the remainder of the cost was simply uh sales tax obligation and also uh bidding premium and also delivery which seems like a really great time to say that this video is sponsored by you there'' s a great deal of points that we might have invested forty thousand dollars on like camera devices for instance however we chose to do this therefore we'' ve revived the MKBHD matte black pocketbook it was extremely limited version prior to but they were incredibly popular so we'' re bringing them back in a slightly much less restricted edition at shop.mkbhd.com they'' re additionally actually unwell as well as now I can say that this video clip is made feasible by my wallet the link is listed below please acquire one have I made a massive error just one way to discover however uh it'' s time to explore this big dog crate [Music] so my largest inquiry as I enter into this is just how do I validate if this is really brand name brand-new and also Unblemished by human hands like on the auction internet site we did see that there were uh there were some X-rays and also the x-rays are great as well as they make it feel truly official however all we really understand by seeing those x-rays is that the devices are in reality in package we don'' t know if they ' re unblemished oh and after that the various other feature of this is when you when you place in a serial number on like Apple'' s Checker uh you can see that it is not registered so whoever obtained this phone initially which I believe they said the name of the initial owner who brought it in uh never registered it it was never ever used it was never triggered however that doesn'' t mean it was never opened up so this this is quite uh a trust workout a lot of layers this resembles a Russian doll of OG Technology items currently this is the one where I require to be cautious I'' m a specialist men it'' s fine this is fine there it is that is the product packaging of this all new however additionally not so all new initial iPhone you can see it'' s got a bit of Browning around it I'' m not as well place off by that as well as several of the articles that I review online after I acquired it were claiming essentially this break here in the edge and uh some other elements are potentially why it went a little less than the record sixty thousand buck price it also has this inverted lucky you sticker every write-up that I'' ve checked out that I ' ve looked up concerning this fortunate you sticker no one seems to understand what it is it'' s sort of puzzling since it is very uncommon various other initial closed iPhones put on'' t have this sticker I also asked individuals at Apple they don'' t recognize what it suggests there are so many things I think individuals neglected about the original iPhone one is it didn'' t have an Application Store so it was just the applications that got on it and also two you couldn'' t set a wallpaper with the very first variation of iOS so everybody'' s iPhone looked specifically the exact same so without any kind of more trouble all right this is the minute that all the value just went from forty thousand to uh I don'' t know depends on how excellent the problem of the phone is yet the plastic cover this 16 years of age it it does have a scent oh elegant so they had foam in the top of packages and also this is the way it appeared facing you on the leading wow I think that is actually brand-new simply a little point simply a perfectly designed little Manufacturing facility seal point oh this is more challenging than a this happened in Justine'' s video this is a tough display protector to remove fine so there'' s a little piece of plastic hard plastic actually after that there is the documents authorized made by Apple in The golden state I actually put on'' t understand if there ' s a sticker label this is now all new area for me regardless of it being old oh there'' s much more there ' s a there ' s a whole microfiber inside that claims iPhone on it interesting fingertips these are all the uh the suggestions for utilizing and also running your apple iphone in 2007 how to set a passcode how to send a message exactly how to browse the web as well as uh oh the sticker labels are a little Askew is that how they were can you see those just how they'' re one of them is inverted as well as tilted the various other one'' s best side up as well as tilted so it kind of it sort of view on function yet also looks various due to the fact that they'' re normally straightened now there is a lot more this is what I was speaking about this is what was x-rayed by the public auction home just to validate that they'' re below but they ' re all likewise still secured in the box so USB a wall surface block you likewise have a 30 pin dock with an earphone jack out on the back this is wonderful let'' s open those allow ' s open up the dock [Music] that is brand name new wow it would look like that uh you additionally obtain two even more things you obtain a 30 pin USB a to 30 pin charging cord and also information cord you connect this into iTunes connect it right into your computer and also earpods this was back in the legendary days of well the silhouette commercials as well as the white headphones and also plugging the wire right into your phone that feels really legitimate I put on'' t assume it ' s going to transform on yet I ' m gon na hold the power button anyway this is one of those things where like it'' s a 16 year old battery certainly it'' s not going to turn on that would certainly be a pretty red flag really if it did start up if it all right it doesn'' t that ' s good is this this all simply seems like exactly what they didn'' t want me to do when I got this original apple iphone take a look at the distinction between that brand-new fresh item of metal versus one that somebody was out using in their everyday lives so while I wait for this a little bit to simply possibly take a minute to bill yet I really feel like I can claim that with all that I recognize and all the research that I'' ve done going right into this purchase it looks like this set is legally all new as well as unopened if anyone can inform me if anyone recognizes or if any individual who'' s watching this operated in Apple retail around the time in 2007 when the apple iphone was launched what if this came from Apple or if this is something completely various I would certainly enjoy to recognize since that would be actually intriguing there'' s one story online regarding how it could have been like a holiday sticker that recognizes all right we'' re back really I ' m back the next day therefore the various tee shirt and the hairstyle but ignore that uh as well as I intend to review whatever that I discovered because we currently have actually obtained the apple iphone to switch on and also I am encouraged that it is an unopened initial as well as I likewise found out some features of the iPhone 2.
So firstly I am encouraged that it'' s an unopened initial due to this shrink wrap being super old since of the diminish cover that was around the apple iphone that was inside the Box being ideal looking and also also the truth that it'' s in fact remarkably challenging to get a 1.0 iPhone to get past this uh iTunes boot display if you really download and install an old version of iTunes and connect it in and try to activate it you can get remarkably much and still not in fact get it to trigger that all kind of lens Credence to the reality that we might obtain various other iPhones to turn on due to the fact that they had later versions of software program lengthy tale short this is as much as we got with it and also it does turn on and also work the weird point that we located was number one this is the original block and also the original cable that came with the apple iphone we connected them in over night we returned in the early morning as well as it still didn'' t turn on but when we changed the brick and also not the cable television it actually started to bill second thing to learn exists was no SIM card ejector tool with the iPhone in any way yet when you do get hold of a SIM card injector tool as well as pop open the SIM card tray at the top you will discover that there is a big SIM card consisted of with the apple iphone so this was a at T lower single exclusive when it came out and consider the dimension of this SIM card this is the uh the original dimension SIM card back in the day before mini and also nano SIM cards but then yeah I did not keep in mind that it shipped with this dock till I did my research study and also I also didn'' t understand it would certainly deliver with a black microfiber as well as these Apple stickers that are somewhat Askew and also this new beautiful iPhone is currently worth dramatically much less than what I paid for it which'' s okay so that ' ll be it ideally I don'' t remorse this thanks so a lot for watching and once again if any person recognizes what the lucky you sticker label implies certainly hit us up in the comments or on Twitter speak to you guys in the following one peace [Music] [Songs] foreign [Applause]
