The iPhone 5 is arguably one of the most beautiful iPhones ever made, it was also my first smartphone! So when I found a sealed, new in box iPhone 5 on eBay I simply couldn't resist the urge to unbox it. I had to have it. In this video we'll see if the iPhone I bought was in fact real and unbox this brand new 9 year old iPhone! We'll also get to explore iOS 6, run some old apps, and admire the wonderful design of this iconic piece of history!

iPhone 4s was my first
The original SE was my first iPhone, the Moto Altrix 4G was my first smartphone
3gs
iPhone 4s was my first
iPhone 3G in 2008!
Nine years old.... Feels like a few years ago. I remember seeing leaked renders before this phone came out and i was blown away.
My dads first iPhone was a iPhone 4
@@sultanishaq6527wow 🎉
I've heard rumor that this was the last iPhone Jobs had overseen. Either way, this is my favorite iPhone they have ever released.
Jobs definitely played a role in early development. The iPhone 6 was Tim Cook’s first big win for the iPhone, it was much cheaper to make than the 5 with those polished edges and diamond cut glass inserts on the back
@@lukemiani Cook really has the whole supply chain down, and runs the company more efficiently. I've always found it so fascinating how different the company is with Cook running it; Not worse, but not as exciting.
My favorite phone was the iPhone 5s
@@ghostmouthzach56 Yeah it's a different style of Apple for sure, as a CEO Cook is probably the best it's ever had
I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 6 sitting in a draw lol
I remember waking up in the morning to the iPhone 5 on apple’s website right before leaving for school, as I didn’t know that keynotes were a thing back then.
But wouldn’t they always put “watch the keynote here” on their website? 😂
Omg same
One of the best iPhones they ever made. Wife still has hers, still works like a charm.
If you love your wife, you’d definitely do her well to get it upgraded 😂 But that’s the good part about iPhone, they last if you want them to!
@@tahmeedmukhtar1472 I have tried. She doesn't want one. She loves her i5, what can I say. If you're married, you will know what I am talking about! ;-)
@@taylornixon6874 I have tried. She doesn't want one. She loves her i5, what can I say. If you're married, you will know what I am talking about! ;-)
How’s the battery doing? My iPhone 7 battery is ruined lol
@@Mopsie At some point I think she got it replaced. Still works great for her.
Dang it’s been 9 years already?! Feels like yesterday it came out!
Well it's like the iPhone 12 wich came out "yesterday" 😂
I remember ads of them playing on the TV back then.. Who here still uses live TV nowadays lol
I have never owned an iPhone, but the iPhone 5 was one of my favorites
The boxy design made me to fall in love with that, and I like the recent design changes by Apple
I like the aluminium phones, not the stainless ones though, to me, they feel kinda sharp, but the stainless phones got the style!
I wish Apple released retro versions of their iPhones. Basically something like SE but for older models, iPhone 4, stuff like that.
Unfortunately I think the amount of people who want that is too small for it to happen
The iPhone 12 Mini is close enough to the design of the original SE, right? You don’t get the home button and there’s a notch, but it has the flat edges and general dimensions of the older iPhones. I think that’s pretty much as good as we’re going to get.
@@theblah12 the 13 mini is out
There’s no 14 Mini
Atleast what they say
That B-roll at 9:27 just brings me way back in time, back when the iPhone and the iPod Touch (still running iOS 4/5/6) became affordable and popular. Around 2011/2012, almost everyone in high school, had one of these two devices (at least, here in the Netherlands). Everyone had those silly apps like iBeer, and fun simple games like Fruit Ninja, it was so cool back then, it was a time where (apart from Twitter and Facebook) there just wasn't really anything else interesting. The iPhone 5 running iOS 6 feels like the end of an era for me, the end of the Steve Jobs era. After Steve died and the release of iOS 7, they changed the UI designs of iOS and OS X, to a material/flat design, leaving Apple's characteristic skeuomorphic design behind, changing the way Apple devices look. I really didn't like it at first, but after a few years, after all the little changes every new iOS version, they really improved the overall look, and it grew on me, I'm really liking it now. But it still doesn't have the same (almost homefeeling) aura as iOS 6 had. But I guess that's just the nostalgia, of a time, that's now, long gone.
I purchased the iPhone 5 when it released (still have the box and everything it came with to include the iPhone. It was so good, that I didn’t upgrade until the iPhone 11 was released. I truly enjoy the iPhone 11 and won’t be upgrading until the iPhone 14 is released (maybe). GREAT Video....
I’d suggest waiting for the iPhone Se 4(20222) instead
@@siddharthagupta8528 idk i wouldn't feel like waiting two hundred thousand years
@@sonospiacente3334 that'll be released before the iphone 14, let alone many years later
@@siddharthagupta8528 well thats kinda contradictory of you isn't it
@@sonospiacente3334 My bad, 'waiting' was a bad choice of wording
This was the first piece of tech I thought was “beautiful” and was the main tipping point for me to go all-in on the ecosystem.
And what an amazing ecosystem it is. I have 3 MacBooks (mid-2010 15” Unibody MacBook Pro, Late 2010 11” MacBook Air, mid-2012 13” Unibody MacBook Pro), 2 desktop Macs (iMac 27” Mid-2011, Late 2014 Mac Mini) an iPod touch 4th gen, and an iPhone SE 2020. All except for the iPod touch (I broke it so it’s completely non-functional) sync together beautifully and it’s just something you can’t do with Windows and Android :)
This. This was a trip down memory lane. Thank you.
8:33 - The best giddy sound I’ve ever heard
Remember getting my iPhone 5 and being amazed at how great its size was compared to the 3G and 4 that I'd owned previously and how futuristic the lightning connector was compared to the old 30 pin version.
As I'm older I had the original iPhone, and I wish I bought 2 one to use and the other kept sealed in the box. Because it be worth thousands now
This is the kind of content I keep coming back for. Kind of unique, love it.
Lmao ngl this is actually my main phone
How is that even possible???
😳😳😳
😂🤣😂 yeah right
Talk is cheap
Proof talks
what a legend
Poverty...
This brings back so many memories! IPhone 5 was my first iPhone... and wow, it’s been almost nine years
Damn, I remember that time, when my dad switched from the 4s to the 5 and said: "man, that's big screen!" 😂 today I could never ever imagine someone to say that to this phone.
I wasn't old enough to have a phone back when the iPhone 5 came out, but my aunt had one, and I remember being absolutely in love with the design and the color. And the screen looked really good too!
Fun fact) that 10 year old iPhone has the same port and USB version as today's the most expensive iPhone.
ahhh the good ol days when we actually got ear buds and power adapters in the box 🥲
Great video Luke! Funny to look back in time :D
back in a day that was something, it felt so fluent and confident. Now i see those app icons, slide to unlock and the whole design really looks like a toy :D
Thanks for bringing back the memories, Luke. You are awesome!
Wow, I had this iPhone in 2015, this is very nostalgic.
Loved this. Cool to look back on the old icons and UI elements in the older iOS releases! Hope to see more of this. I remember how awesome iPhone OS 3 and OS 4 were in both feature launches and UI enhancements.
My first iPhone was the iPhone 3G. Appropriately cracked about 2 weeks after getting it. Dropped it while trying to get away from a friends mom coming home from work while we were smoking cigarettes wayyyy underage. Lmao. What a time to be alive.
I was a freshman in college rocking the iPhone 5 in 2012! Everyone still had 3’s and 4’s and the 5 was considered a bigger phone. Wild!
I loved this phone. Brings back so many memories driving down PCH with friends. I actually lost this phone in Malibu at the beach but found it in some sand lol
That is the slickest transition to a sponsor I’ve ever seen. Excellent job, Luke.
OH WOW I MISSED THIS SO MUCH
This brought back so many memories.
The iPhone 5 was my first iPhone too. I loved that thing so much. I got it around the time of its release and kept it for more than 5 years. I never updated it past iOS 8.4.1. It became tough to use since Apps were dropping support for iOS 8, so I upgraded to a 8 Plus in 2018.
I still use a 5S regularly. It's a live stock ticker on my desktop, and a voice notes mule for when I'm writing on the road. As you (Luke) well know, it's amazing what you can still do on a vintage Apple device!
Luke getting excited over having it hand meanwhile I'm still stuck on it 🙁😞
The way the Apple logo makes a little animation right before the welcome screen. Apple bring this back… bring the magic back.
A week using that iPhone 5 with iOS 6!!
Great video Luke, keep it up.
wow yesterday i was searching for iphone 5 unboxings in 2021 and there were not any good ones... and today you posted! what a miracle :D
My first iPhone was the iPhone 4 and I still have it today! I wish I could take it back to iOS 6 though, the iOS 7 is very slow.
You can
Super video! I applauded for £2.00 👏
Appreciate the support!
@@lukemiani That was quick - thanks for replying!! If you had a "join" button I'd totally do that 👀
Thanks for this video Luke. The iPhone 5 was the phone I remember having most throughout high school. I remember taking it out of its case sometimes because it looked so cool and was so thin and yet taller with a “huge” screen at the time. That being said, I thing the 5S was the biggest leap forward for iPhone. It was the first iPhone with: biometric security, 64-bit processor, the new iOS 7 redesign. All completely different and upgraded and yet in the same shell as the 5
I know that feeling where you mentioned seeing it the day after you got it, in 2012 and it was almost like an unreal thing to be looking at. I had that feeling too looking at my Home Screen and seeing that 5th line of icons at the bottom of the screen. That’s when I knew I had something new and special. That’s my favorite phone ever. I almost want to pick up an SE so I can feel that nostalgia and throw on my old phone cases again lol
I still have a 5s at home lol
It’s kinda wonky and buggy now tho :/
U still have a 5s
You need a big time upgrade
@@bigmaxcc The 5S runs iOS 12, so I'd see it perfectly usable in 2021. I use one daily alongside my main phone
I just have it, my main phone is an 8 Plus
@@andrive still using a 5s until now. Does not matter because im just a basic user
I remember when this phone came out, the iPhone 4 and 5 were some of most beautifully crafted phones of all time.
That black color looked the best in my opinion. And those icons! They looked so good, I kinda want skemorphism back.
That definitely was my first iPhone, in the same color! Definitely the best iPhone design and color ever! My goodness, I need to get myself that phone again!
mine was the 4s :) just recently got my 12 pro and the design is giving me such nostalgia, I love it so much
My first iPhone was the 4 (when Verizon finally got the iPhone.) My second iPhone was the 5. After that the models I have owned go as follows:
6
7 Plus
12 Pro Max (current.)
I have always enjoyed Retro tech over current tech even though I use stuff from today as well. I think because I'm closer to 45 Years old (2 years away) that looking back to stuff I grew up with just means more. Most YouTubbers I see are half my age, if not younger, and while they can do research and get used devices and still try them out. It's different using them at the time they were current. Another example I'll give is gaming, I'm not a hard core gamer, but IF I do play, I'd much rather play old DOS, or Windows based games, or old classic Mac games over current stuff (unless you're talking console such as Nintendo, etc.) I grew up with the Atari 2600, and 5200 as my consoles.
iPhone 12 Pro Max: Who are you?
iPhone 5: I am your great great great great great great grandfather
iPhone 12 Pro Max: No wonder I inherited your design
iPhone 5: Yes, my great great great great great great grandson. I look like you, but you're taller. 😀
iPhone 12 Pro Max: 🥺
I like this comment
My first iPhone was the iPhone 5 and this was so nostalgic. I miss the iOS 6 interface. Those were the simpler days.
Thank you for the video. By far my most favourite iPhone of all.
pog
agree
My first was a iPhone 5! My 5 year old granddaughter still plays with it. Just got a iPhone 12 Pro Max. Feels like I am holding my iPhone 5 back in the day. It is my favorite. Love the flat edges. So glad they are back
You know, the iPhone 12 mini in Midnight Black is like the upgraded version of the 5 here…Size, Block Design…very neat and simple…
I remember when I got the 5 like it was yesterday. One of the best.
Great unboxing! Mi first one was an iPhone 4, then I went straight to 6 and now X. I loved how the 5 looked, but I think the 4 was way easier to maintain in a good shape, other 5s would look more scratched than my old four was.
I’ve never put a single case on either one.
The 5 was one of the ones I skipped (also the 3GS, 8, and X) but having the 5S that's close enough that I can appreciate this video just the same. Now that we have returned back to flat-sided as the new old trend it's a great time to look back.
great vid I can relate to some of its problems as my phone is an iphone 5s yet again great video
Love the way you create your videos my first iPhone was iPhone 4 :)
The iPhone 5 holds a special place in my heart. While it wasn’t the first iPhone I’ve owned, but it was the one and only iPhone I’ve stood (and slept Lol) in an Apple Store line on launch day for. I was number 42 in line, and I was rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender S1 to past the time, until I fell asleep until the early morning. I had preordered the AT&T 5 in white with 64GB. I was super excited one I got it home and experienced it for the first time. This will be forever my favorite iPhone for all time….and this video gave me the push I needed to go ahead and order this open box, yet brand new condition iPhone 5 running iOS 6 off eBay that I’ve been watching for some time. Can’t wait to re-experience the 5 on iOS 6 again. Thanks for this video Luke!
11:00 I remember the beer app would also let you drink mouthwash 🤣
I just joined your channel and I am really enjoying it
That is a beautiful iPhone 5! Super sleek! 💛💛💛
I just ordered mine! Hoping I can start using it as my daily driver 🤞
just going out to buy myself another one not as ours but you got the point!
My first one was the 3G...wow what a big thing that was back in the day. But my first "love" was the iPhone 4 with the introduction of the retina screen. Oh boy....now I want one again.....
I remember getting an Black iPhone 5, and I was so amazed that it had 64GB, so huge coming from my 8GB White IPhone 4S. The black design with glass and metal also amazed me, especially how light the device is
Mine was the iPhone 4, Wolldecken be a blast in you can find one and unbox that😇
Greetings from Germany, keep in the good work
Yeah man...now using my 5 and its awesome💯💥
10:30 my Grandpa has preserved his iPhone 5 in a otterbox and still running it on iOS 6 and it still looks new so I beg to differ 😂
My wife and I started with the 3G then the 5S now we are still hanging onto 2 8Pluses which still work well for us!
An actual one this time nice
i never had an iphone and never touched one ever in my entire 23yrs. Seeing this unboxing makes me feel bad and great at the same time becausw i never get to experience iPhones and seeing this right now watching how you guys experienced an iPhone. Thanks for the video bud
This beast was my first iPhone, I have used it until March 2020 haha
I got 11 Pro after it, what an upgrade!
I remember when the iPhone 5 came out like it was like yesterday for real, but before I can buy the iPhone 5, then the iPhone 5c came out at the time, so my first IPhone, was the iPhone 5c.
earlier this year i bought an iphone 5 because it’s the phone i always wanted and i just feel like i needed to fulfill my dream. after a month i sold it online since i already have 11
LOVE the B roll
My first was the 5 with the S :)) , and after 8 years it’s still working well still using it as a remote or iPod
Luke drooling over this iphone 5 for 10 minutes made me want to eat something for some reason :)
This was my first iPhone too! (though I'd had a couple generations of the iPod Touch before that) I got mine secondhand though, and it was already on iOS 7.
I also stayed with that same form factor all the way until 7 months ago, as after the iPhone 5 I had the 5S and then the original SE. Finally switched to the new SE just last year
SE from 2016 was my first and still using it everyday what a champ. 😎
We still have one around the house. I remember when it came out it was looking really good
I loved my 5 so much! I still have mine, never dropped it or anything. I ended up going with the 12 mini recently switching up from a 7 Plus. Big phones just don’t make sense. Using my 7 Plus was getting really annoying because of its size.
Weeew... its really long time no use that device😁
my first iphone was a 4, freakin loved it even if looking back at it now it was trash, that phone made me into the apple sheep and tech enthusiast i am now today
Awesome find! Now save those iOS 6 SHSH blobs, it always nice to have those just in case!
My iPhone 5 was my first white iPhone. I put it in a navy blue leather case and it looked like something you'd find on a yacht (to me at least). Lovely phone!
The master piece it is..No other iphone can be like the 5th one specially this black colour..Simply a beauty...i have an iphone SE 2016 and will kepp it with me as long as i can..the best design...
I still keep my silver iPhone 5 by my bed to listen to music and podcasts. It feels so tiny as all my phones since have been pluses. I used it for awhile and probably would have kept going but the battery life was getting short. Do love it though.
I had the white iPhone 5, such an amazing phone!
My first iphone and my second ever phone was the 4s so I can definitely relate with you on the nestalgia. One day I accidently dropped it and the screen shattered into a thousand and a half pieces. The funny thing is, even after the screen was filled with cracks, it still turned on. After a few weeks, I finally upgraded to the 5s, then 6s, then SE first gen, and now I have the 12 mini. My 2 favorites were definitely the 4s for being my first iphone and SE for just how long it lasted me.
Love this video👍✌️
First iPhone wasn't a 5, but I do remember it being one of the first iPhones I was acutely aware of. I remember walking into Target and seeing adverts for the 5, then the 5S and the 5C.
The iPhone 5 has always been my favorite. It was my first new iPhone. My first iPhone it all was the 4 that was when it came out on Verizon so I never got it the day it originally came out in 2010 like most people. But the 5, I was there day one and it was wonderful.
That 58 second montage was 👌
Actually my first iPhone was the 4S when I was 14 years old. I bought it the July of 2012, but next year, when the iPhone 5 was released, I wanted it a lot, It was the first iPhone with a larger display etc, so I was blown away with it, and I bought it at 31 December 2012! Today looking back I think that move was a mistake, because I wanted an iPhone like crazy from the 3GS era, and I got only the iPod Touch 2 and iPod Touch 4 by that time, so when I finally, after a lot of patience got the iPhone 4S, it would be the right thing to keep it at least for one year!
After all, the iPhone 4S was an amazing phone at the time, and even today the design is fantastic! It screams quality! I shouldn't act like a greedy kid and just sell my first ever iPhone 4S to buy an iPhone 5...
But yeah, when I got it, I was again blown away with it! I vividly remember the feel of the larger display, with its more deep colours, and the thinner and lighter design! Also the speaker was much better! Ah.. Good times...
I really love this one 👍the shape and colour size I love it .
Wow! The phone looks gorgeous!
Yep, my first iPhone was that very same phone. Slate has been my personal favorite of any color on an iPhone. Love my iPhone 12 mini, but wish the colors for the 12 were identical to my original 5. That would great!
I cant even think of the price you payed for that iphone 5 haha but it was worth it, loved the throwback :D great video
that og swipe to unlock sound nothing is/was better
It was my 2nd iPhone ever my first was a 4s, but dang was this awesome to see! I left mine without a case well I remember when I first got it my college roommate told it looked like a batman device. Which was literally amazing to me at the time! I love that phone gosh I miss that slate!
I stood in line for 6 hours to get that phone on release day, while on vacation in Hawaii! During that 6 hours in the heat I started talking to the guy in line in front of me, and we traded phone numbers. We have been friends since, and my wife and I are going to grab lunch with him when we head back over to Oahu next month!. I still remember seeing the phone for the first time when an Apple employee brought the iPhone out in a little plastic box for everyone to look at. Such a fun trip!
Such a nice cell!!
