- Hey guys, Jonathan here.
Welcome to iPhone Dummy Embargo Day.
Video 56 in your sub box.
Thank you for choosing TLD, I appreciate you.
I'm just gonna say whenever you get a bag like this
from DHL it's usually a bad sign inside here.
So we got an unboxing, or rather an unbagging
of some previews of what we should see
with iPhones coming out later this year.
(whooping)
So this bag is giving me some serious Breaking Bad vibes.
Shout out to Better Call Saul coming back today.
I'm gonna say it's the best show on TV right now.
Don't @ me, or you can, either way, it's all good.
- Man.
- Breaking into the bag.
That is definitely not classy, not at all.
So we got shady bag
covering some shadier bags.
That looks like a straight-up, like,
I'm not gonna say it.
- [Woman] LeBron James.
- I'm gonna need some scissors.
Imagine you're on the streets,
some guy just hands you these iPhone dummy models.
Don't get me started on Apple's naming scheme,
we're all kinds of messed up this year.
Allegedly the 6.1 inch iPhone is going to be the iPhone 9,
the 5.8 inch iPhone is going to be the iPhone XS,
the iPhone 11 and then we have the iPhone X Plus
which is going to be the 6.5 inch model.
Apple, you're killing me.
Actually,
we might be able to get a unboxing in this title,
I'm not clickbaiting you, that's a box.
- [Man] Kobe!
- Man, I went from shady bag to bubble wrap,
to this just feels like fat stacks.
Like smash in (giggles).
Now by the size of these boxes, they look the same.
Just for fun out there, guess, is this a 6.5, is this a 6.1?
And then we'll kinda play who was right and who was wrong.
So I'm gonna say, Rich, give me one.
6.5?
6.1?
- 6.5 on your right. - They're the same box, dude.
- Right hand. - Right hand, 6.5?
- Yeah. - Okay, 6.5 right here.
Rich is calling it.
I think you're wrong.
This definitely feels like a beefy, hefty
Dave2D thicc boi.
Did I get two of the same?
There's, no, those are the same.
I guess you're right, Rich.
You're right, you win by default.
This video title just changed.
(fingers snap)
Well since I got two, I guess I could give one away.
Anybody wants an iPhone dummy?
Maybe to prank your brother--
- [Electronic Voice] I don't know what that means.
If you like, I can search the web for,
I guess I could give one away anybody who wants an iPhone.
- So if you want a dummy to prank your mom,
your brother, your sister, your friend,
your family, Austin Evans,
drop a like and we'll do some sort of random giveaway
in the description, check it out.
But I guess for now I'll go ahead and compare this.
So this is definitely, no man,
I didn't pay with Bitcoin, no, thank goodness.
I paid with good old-fashioned USD.
This sucker thinks he's getting an iPhone 9,
we'll give him two broken iPhone X Pluses.
(Rich and Jonathan laughing)
Seriously though, I mean I know the phone doesn't work,
my volume, mute switch is already caved in,
it's like recessed, definitely not a feature.
So if you guys happen to win this,
I'll make sure you get the non broken one.
Ooh, someone give me a USB-C cable.
That looks like Lightning.
I mean don't base this video off facts.
I'm sure USB-C cable might fit in there
but this is just me dreaming.
That's one of the rumors this year
with the iPhone 2018 models that Apple might switch
to USB-C which I would love because MacBook USB-C,
anything that's USB-C these days, I am all for.
Moment of truth.
It's like the Austin Evans iPhone 6 parody video.
Unlike Fogell, it's not in.
And that looks like we're sticking with Lightning,
at least on the dummy models.
I'm gonna keep dreaming, I'm gonna keep hoping,
and and I'm gonna keep crossing my fingers,
Tim Cook, Jony Ive, Craig, if you're watching this,
we all want USB-C, please give us USB-C.
So stacking this side-by-side,
instinctively I kind of assumed
maybe this was the 6.1 inch iPhone 9
but based off the fact that there are dual cameras
and the alleged iPhone 9
or whatever the heck Apple's gonna call it,
is only gonna have a single lens,
this has to be the iPhone X Plus
or again whatever the heck Apple is going to call it.
Now the interesting part is because
there is such a good use of screen,
minus the notch because I know everyone hates the notch,
this is not that much bigger,
so if this is the 6.5 inch iPhone X Plus.
The biggest difference I feel is the heft this way,
like you gotta grip it.
I could easily see getting used to this,
so if we get a bigger screen, better battery,
I think I might be into the 6.5 inch iPhone X Plus.
I do wish that I didn't get scammed
so whoever sold me these,
you're supposed to hook up a 6.1 inch iPhone.
You scammed me dude.
So now I have no way of referencing for scale for size.
I mean we could assume it's going
to be right split in the middle of these two
but that's just kinda left up the whole naming scheme,
the whole iPhone release this year just a little bit weird.
Disaster video aside, I guess to recap
on what we might see this year with the 2018 iPhones,
the 6.1 inch model is going to be the LCD,
potentially it's gonna come
in multiple colors a la the iPhone 5c.
Then we have the updated 5.8 inch iPhone XS.
You guys gotta let me know what you think
of the naming scheme is
because I think Apple's super trolling us right now.
We have no idea what it's gonna be called.
I kind of dig like iPhone Pro
but at this point it's just kinda like the Wild West.
Back to the 5.8 inch iPhone, that's gonna be an OLED display
and upgrade to this year's iPhone X.
And then of course we have the giant iPhone X Plus,
this is OLED, 6.5 inch screen, should have a bigger battery.
I would expect the exact same chip
across all iPhone across the board, that is very Apple-like.
The big difference again is gonna come with the cameras.
We're gonna get dual cameras
on the iPhone X Plus, iPhone XS.
And then with the iPhone 9 or whatever the heck
they're gonna call the colored models,
single lens, LCD display, and again,
I wish I had one to compare but I got scammed.
I had no idea what to expect.
I said from the beginning, anytime you get a bag like that,
skeptical shady things are usually not far away
and I paid for an iPhone 9, I paid for a 6.1 inch iPhone
and I got two 6.5 inch dummies.
So I'm the dummy.
Catch you guys later.
