all right in the enthusiast globe of Classics generally old items of tech aren'' t really all that intriguing like who intends to buy an iPhone 6 now the top most demanded item of tech in The Enthusiast world is the factory secured unopened original iPhone currently enjoyable reality back when we went to go make that uh assessing every single apple iphone video we did need to go back and discover and purchase a working version of each and every single iPhone ever made and the additional back you go the more difficult it is to locate a working version and we at some point did discover a pair like these 3 initial utilized but still functioning apples iphone from 2007. maybe it'' s due to the fact that they ' re 16 years of ages they are actually defeat up but the truth that they ' re still functioning is sort of a wonder discovering one that is initial still sealed never been opened up never even been touched by human hands or seen by human eyes is very rare it'' s so unusual that'I ' ve really seen lots of people obtain scammed by this an unopened apple iphone is so uncommon and beneficial that individuals will really seal a used initial iPhone and sell it online as an initial and guy YouTubers have succumbed this investing thousands of bucks to try to get their hands on what they assumed was mosting likely to be an untouched iPhone it'' s just crazy that individuals go out scamming such as this however hey the difference in worth in between simply any old original apple iphone and a brand-new secured unblemished iPhone is big and it'' s well worth the cost of the cellophane and the warmth gun and the effort needed to make an old iPhone appear new only regarding 6 million initial gen iPhones were ever sold therefore obviously the variety of unopened ones will only ever before drop from below and it'' s kind of this strange video game of attempting to find out when their worth has peaked and checking out the numbers it in fact seems like it has actually peaked so one in fact marketed at an auction in February this year for over sixty thousand dollars which was a record and the highest possible we'' ve ever before seen then one more one showed up at an auction in March a month later on that one opted for fifty five thousand bucks then there was one with this lucky you sticker label also extra unusual they probably believed they were going to get the most cash for it yet it actually rose at an auction a few weeks ago in Chicago and somebody scooped it for only forty thousand bucks I presume they obtained a little a discount rate because that individual was me and this is the plan it came in uh because that auction home was not playing around it was in fact type of surreal winning this public auction just for the document it'' s not like a typical public auction website like ebay.com where you simply click a switch and you win this is a real auction like a live streamed video of a man with a gavel going to obtain 6000 over below 6500 in the front row we got 6 800 on the phone until we hear seven thousand seven thousand right here and it simply maintains going and you can participate from throughout the world so they were experiencing a lot of things and the apple iphone was product number 203 therefore when they got to 203 I logged into the website and I had my initial deal put which was the minimum of 32 000 the contents have actually been x-rayed validated going when going twice sold to the on-line bidder moving on I simply won like that was the minute when I devoted to uh figuring this whole point out and so the remainder of the cost was simply uh sales tax and uh bidding process premium and delivery which seems like a really great time to claim that this video clip is sponsored by you there'' s a whole lot of things that we can have invested forty thousand bucks on like camera tools for example yet we decided to do this and so we'' ve revived the MKBHD matte black wallet it was very restricted version before but they were preferred so we'' re bringing them back in a slightly much less restricted edition at shop.mkbhd.com they'' re additionally really sick and now I can say that this video is implemented by my purse the web link is below please purchase one have I made a significant blunder just one way to find out but uh it'' s time to dig right into this massive crate [Music] so my largest concern as I enter into this is how do I verify if this is in fact new and Unblemished by human hands like on the auction web site we did see that there were uh there were some X-rays and the x-rays are trendy and they make it really feel really main yet all we really recognize by seeing those x-rays is that the accessories are in reality in the Box we wear'' t recognize if they ' re unblemished oh and afterwards the other thing concerning this is when you when you place in a serial number on like Apple'' s Mosaic uh you can see that it is not signed up so whoever obtained this phone originally which I believe they stated the name of the original proprietor that brought it in uh never registered it it was never utilized it was never activated however that doesn'' t indicate it was never opened up so this this is extremely much uh a trust fund exercise a lot of layers this is like a Russian doll of OG Technology items currently this is the one where I require to be cautious I'' m a professional individuals it'' s great this is fine there it is that is the product packaging of this all new however also not so brand-new original iPhone you can see it'' s obtained a bit of Browning around it I'' m not too delay by that and several of the write-ups that I review online after I acquired it were claiming primarily this break below in the corner and uh a few other variables are potentially why it went a little less than the document sixty thousand dollar cost it likewise has this inverted lucky you sticker every article that I'' ve reviewed that I ' ve sought out concerning this fortunate you sticker label nobody seems to understand what it is it'' s sort of confusing since it is incredibly rare other initial covered iPhones put on'' t have this sticker I also asked people at Apple they wear'' t understand what it suggests there are a lot of points I think people forgotten the original iPhone one is it didn'' t have an Application Store so it was simply the applications that got on it and two you couldn'' t set a wallpaper with the initial version of iphone so everybody'' s iPhone looked precisely the very same so with no more ado okay this is the moment that all the value simply went from forty thousand to uh I don'' t understand depends upon how good the condition of the phone is but the plastic wrap this 16 years of age it it does have a scent oh elegant so they had foam in the top of packages and this is the method it revealed up encountering you on the leading wow I assume that is really brand-new just a little thing just a nicely designed little Manufacturing facility seal point oh this is tougher than a this taken place in Justine'' s video this is a difficult display guard to take off all right so there'' s a little item of plastic tough plastic actually then there is the papers signed created by Apple in California I actually don'' t know if there ' s a sticker label this is currently all new region for me in spite of it being old oh there'' s a lot more there ' s a there ' s an entire microfiber inside that says apple iphone on it intriguing fingertips these are all the uh the pointers for using and running your apple iphone in 2007 how to set a passcode how to send a message exactly how to search the internet and uh oh the stickers are a little bit Askew is that just how they were can you see those exactly how they'' re one of them is inverted and slanted the other one'' s appropriate side up and tilted so it type of it sort of search function however likewise looks different due to the fact that they'' re typically lined up now there is a lot more this is what I was speaking about this is what was x-rayed by the auction residence just to confirm that they'' re below however they ' re all likewise still sealed in package so USB a wall block you additionally have a 30 pin dock with an earphone jack out on the back this is nice allow'' s open those let ' s open the dock [Songs] that is brand brand-new wow it would certainly resemble that uh you additionally get two more things you get a 30 pin USB a to 30 pin charging cable and data wire you plug this into iTunes connect it into your computer and earpods this was back in the renowned days of well the silhouette commercials and the white headphones and connecting the cable into your phone that feels really legitimate I don'' t think it ' s mosting likely to switch on yet I ' m gon na hold the power button anyhow this is one of those things where like it'' s a 16 year old battery obviously it'' s not going to activate that would be a rather warning in fact if it did start up if it all right it doesn'' t that ' s good is this this all just seems like exactly what they didn'' t desire me to do when I acquired this original iphone look at the distinction between that brand brand-new fresh piece of steel versus one that somebody was out using in their daily lives so while I wait on this a bit to simply most likely take a minute to charge but I feel like I can say that with all that I understand and all the research study that I'' ve done going into this purchase it feels like this one is legitimately new and unopened if any person can inform me if any individual understands or if anyone that'' s watching this functioned in Apple retail around the time in 2007 when the iPhone was released what if this came from Apple or if this is something entirely various I would certainly like to understand since that would be truly intriguing there'' s one story online concerning exactly how it might have been like a holiday sticker label that understands all right we'' re back actually I ' m back the next day for this reason the different shirt and the hairstyle yet overlook that uh and I intend to go over everything that I found out since we currently have actually obtained the apple iphone to switch on and I am persuaded that it is an unopened initial and I additionally learned some aspects of the iPhone 2.
So to start with I am encouraged that it'' s an unopened original due to this shrink wrap being incredibly old as a result of the diminish cover that was around the apple iphone that was inside the Box being best looking and even the fact that it'' s in fact surprisingly difficult to obtain a 1.0 apple iphone to get past this uh iTunes boot display if you really download and install an old variation of iTunes and plug it in and attempt to activate it you can get remarkably much and still not really obtain it to turn on that all type of lens Credence to the fact that we could get various other iPhones to activate due to the fact that they had later variations of software lengthy tale short this is regarding we got with it and it does turn on and function the strange thing that we discovered was top this is the original brick and the initial cord that came with the apple iphone we plugged them in overnight we returned in the early morning and it still didn'' t turn on however when we changed the brick and not the wire it in fact began to charge 2nd thing to discover exists was no SIM card ejector device with the apple iphone at all but when you do grab a SIM card injector tool and pop open up the SIM card tray on top you will certainly locate that there is a massive SIM card included with the iPhone so this was a at T reduce particular exclusive when it appeared and check out the size of this SIM card this is the uh the initial size SIM card back then before mini and nano SIM cards however then yeah I did not bear in mind that it delivered with this dock till I did my research study and I additionally didn'' t recognize it would certainly deliver with a black microfiber and these Apple sticker labels that are somewhat Askew and this all new excellent apple iphone is now worth substantially less than what I paid for it and that'' s all right to ensure that ' ll be it hopefully I put on'' t regret this thanks a lot for enjoying and once again if anybody recognizes what the fortunate you sticker suggests certainly hit us up in the comments or on Twitter speak to you people in the next one tranquility [Music] [Songs] international [Praise]
