YouTubers build 2-meter iPhone and break two world records

On September 6, 2024, YouTubers Matthew Perkins, known as DIY Perks, and Arun Maini, aka MrWhoseTheBoss, broke an insane record: they built the world's largest, fully functional iPhone 15 Pro Max. The gigantic smartphone measures 2.02 meters and weighs an incredible 190 kilograms and was officially recorded as a record by Guinness World Records.

The XXL iPhone consists of a modified 88-inch OLED TV from LG, to which a customized touch foil has been attached. A solid aluminum frame provides the necessary stability. Two Canon EOS R5 and a Sony RX10 Mark IV simulate the triple camera of the real iPhone 15 Pro Max and offer an image quality that clearly surpasses the original. The project cost around 70,000 US dollars. The YouTubers have documented the construction of the iPhone in the following video:

As the YouTubers did not have access to Apple's iOS, they opted for the Android-based Bliss OS, which they equipped with an iOS-like user interface. The giant iPhone is fully functional and supports contactless payment, emailing and video calls. In a video on the YouTube channel of MrWhoseTheBoss, the YouTubers carried the giant iPhone through the streets of London - among other things to let passers-by play FlappyBird on it or to make contactless payments at an ice cream parlor:

Most powerful Android device in the world

At the end of the video by MrWhoseTheBoss, you can see how judges from the Guinness Book of World Records presented the two YouTubers with the certificate for the world's largest functioning iPhone. In addition to building the giant smartphone, the team also conducted a benchmark test, which shows that their replica with an Intel Core i9 processor, 128 GB RAM and a AMD 6950XT graphics card is the most powerful Android device in the world.
