In a remarkable achievement, a new Guinness World Record has been set with the creation of an enormous iPhone 15 Pro Max, towering at 6.74 feet. This impressive feat was accomplished by well-known tech reviewer Arun Maini, known as Mr whose the boss, and gadget-building specialist Matthew Perks of DIYPerks.
The construction of this colossal smartphone replica was undertaken to celebrate Maini’s YouTube follower count surpassing that of the official Apple account. The impressive replica, though enormous, offers full functionality akin to its real counterpart. Notably, it includes a working touchscreen, a functional camera, a flashlight, and a charging port.
Expressing his pride, Maini shared, “It feels like a full circle moment. I’m so proud of both our team and Matt for pulling off what’s never been done before.” This sentiment highlights the significance of the accomplishment in Maini’s eyes.
