After the invisible Home Cinema, the PS5 Slim a year before Sony and other completely crazy projects, Matt from the YouTube channel DIYPerks teamed up with Mrwhosetheboss to make a fully functional giant iPhone 15 Pro Max. Validated by an official World Record (see video on this article), this crazy project will have required a short year of work and more than $70,000 of equipment (including $25,000 for a screen destroyed due to lack of experience).
Geniuses for fun££££
You can watch the whole process on video by clicking on this link, but to summarize, it all starts with an 88" LG OLED TV transformed into a touch screen via a meticulous and tedious process (hence the destruction of one copy). Then comes the integration of real Canon and Sony cameras for the camera module, with even a real periscope to emulate Apple's periscope/tetraprism technology, as well as studio lighting as a flash.
Since iOS is a very closed system, the tinkerers had to turn to a modified Android to imitate the Apple interface. Everything runs on a huge PC, also integrated into the giant carcass of the iPhone (2.054 m high and nearly 200 kg). The sound system is also custom-made, integrating eight 50 W speakers each, plus the subwoofer who is doing well.
