This is the hardest project that I've designed and built - it took a LOT of work, pushing me to breaking point several times over 3 months. It only reached completion thanks to the support of my family and a one week 'crunch time' at the end with Lamar and Jozef from Arun's team (the video as presented isn't actually chronological; the screen wasn't complete until just before delivery!). So I'd just like to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped get it over the line, and particularly to my dad who helped me the most when things got tight. I'm very grateful to have this as my job, despite the challenges, so I also want to thank each and every one of you for being interested in my projects! I couldn't do it without you viewers so thanks for watching!
A thorough joy to watch not just your process but how much enjoyment you get out of it personally, and how you share that pleasure with those you love. I don't know if you've heard of Tim Hunkin (you probably have) but this one felt like an episode of The Secret World of Machines. Tim is still going and now making videos for TH-cam, and I think a collab with him even just sharing notes on building projects would be unmissable.
I could not stop smiling just watching this and really did watch all 32 isch minutes of it! Holy Flip, SO impressed Matt! Been watching since roughly 25k subs back in the day, this is something else!
PLEASE take a long well deserved break after this Matt 😂 Cannot BELIEVE what we managed to pull off in the end, and I can't thank you enough for the struggles you had to go through to make it happen 🙏
If Steve Jobs is still alive, he'd toss that into a fish tank (well, probably a pond) and say that it needs to be smaller since there are air bubbles coming out
There are Vibration-Moduls like for Simracing that work with USB-Input. But shaking the structure and the internals around might cause many problems. It is a prototype after all.
Today I learned that Matt's name is actually Perks (from the certificate presented to Arun by Guiness). I always thought the channel name just meant the perks of DIY, nerd cred, fully custom, aesthetics and all that. I never knew he was being cheeky as well. Congratulations on the achievement.
Well this was a lot more impressive than I expected. I would call it world class prop building but it goes way beyond a prop. Has Apple offered to buy one for a million bucks yet?
@@abdusco They'd be sending cease and desist letters if it was running iOS. They don't like people using their products, they just like people buying their products.
@@sclwrk Did you watch the video? They literally showed off mirroring but explained that it can't be used because it doesn't support touch from external displays which defeats the whole point of the project... So no, there was literally no way to use an iPhone because of how locked down and useless iOS is.
This has to be one of the most intense builds I've ever seen, and it's so cool that every element seems to be a project you've built in the past. Hugely inspirational stuff and props to Arun for helping make it all happen. BUT DUDE we need to get you cadding in Fusion, or Onshape, or anything else ... please 😂
This! Building little by little and learning by doing, all of this is my favorite thing on the whole internet. You guys really inspire us, the makers of the world, so I sincerely thank y'all for what you do.
Hehe, I know dude! To be fair I did the rims in fusion, but only because I needed them in a format that PCBWay accepted for the machining 😅 intense is a good word for the build by the way! Thanks for the compliments!
it was like everything was building up to this moment.. with each component it was like.. well he has fair experience in the past dealing with that stuff
Nobody (or very few) are talking about the fact that Matt has put all this effort into those speakers and yet they have not been tested on camera! That speaker build was insane, especially the subwoofers! I am surprised footage of the sound quality didn't make the cut in the final version. I am sure it sounded well, I had quality headphones on standby waiting for that portion to come! Nonetheless, absolutely fantastic job and I was very pleased to see your name on the Guinness World Record certificate. Well deserved!
It truly is ironic that Apples own restrictions have stopped what is easily the most impressive Apple related project from having even a single piece of Apple hardware or software
its kinda sad how regular PC components and a distro of Android x86 are being use to basically promote iPhones, but i guess views are views, giant iphone just attracts more people
I don't doubt Matt was pretty thankful for that 'feature' though 😅 I can only imagine the effort of making a giant functional version of a 3.5 two-ring audio jack and plug.
always such beautiful builds indeed, its understandable he takes such a long time to share a video. he wants absolute perfection. and im scared how he is going to top this insane project xD
Matt is the epitome of quality over quantity. And still, despite the level of creativity and originality, there is no doubt that Matt really made what we see. Honestly one of my top 3 YT channels.
@@sclwrk you’d still need to get this to do touch screen pass through which should be fine if you make it think the touch layer is a “usb tablet” Found this by running macOS in a c/m on a tablet and noticing it auto detected the touch screen function
Matt: Building a perfect non-functioning replica prop of this size would be an admirable feat, especially with the quality of materials and design you mimicked so well. To build something of this size and have nearly every element working perfectly, just like a normal iphone is simply beyond belief.

You've outdone yourself yet again and deserve some good rest. Knock on wood that hopefully nothing happens by the time Guinness World Records comes over. Here's an anecdote: when I built world's largest Game Boy replica, I was doing some finishing touches at the museum where GWR was going to hold a photoshoot. I painted some finishing touches and was gone for half an hour and the whole project fell on the floor after someone accidentally pressed a light switch, but the switch controlled a gate. Apparently the project was resting against a gate, how about that. Well, with the original Game Boy circuit board behind it getting damaged and a few structural parts I had about 3 hours to fiw it before GWR's team came over. Luckily I had my childhood Game Boy with me and had a spare FPGA board, it was a bit painful but that was the quickest I had ever soldered. The whole project was a rollercoaster of stress and overcoming problems, but definitely worth it on many levels. The most important being the amount of improvement in skills that came with it; soft skills such as handling stress and all the skills required in producing the project in itself with limited tools. Anyway, thanks for the inspiration and congratulations. 🎉
Lamar, from seeing you only 5 times for 5 seconds, you really vibe as the perfect equivalent to Matt: 100% skills in your field, 100% dedication to great results, 100% sympathy in you as a person. Would be happy to see more of him!
Matt, this might seem like an odd tangent, but seeing your dad get more and more involved with your projects (whether it's with assistance or even just making cameos) has been a treat; it's great to see father and son working together on a project. And in this one, you even got the help of a ton more, too! Your collaborative stuff is always fun to watch, and I look forward to seeing more of it!
This was ridiculous and my jaw dropped several times when you kept adding more tech to the build. I hope this becomes an interactive installation that the public can visit.
Bro, I was here in your profile looking for a new video and found nothing, but boy oh boy I wasn't prepared for this, imagine having this mounted on Arun's tv room, with just the usb cable going to the outlet, must be a incredible center piece for a tech nerd (as myself), I would love one of these in my room! INCREDIBLE work my friend, congratulations, You keep outworking yourself after all these years!
Matt, this project is absolutely mind-blowing! Seriously, creating the world's largest iPhone isn't just some wild idea; it's a stroke of genius. The fact that you're pulling this off, even as Apple, the giant, looms over the tech world, is just incredible. How can you not admire their courage and vision? The touchscreen issue sounds like a nightmare, but honestly, that workaround? Using acrylic to separate the touch layer and LOCA glue to keep everything crisp and functional? That’s some next-level ingenuity! This isn’t just a massive iPhone for show; it’s a testament to what’s possible when people push beyond the limits of what’s expected. You can feel the passion and drive behind every detail. I’m so pumped to see the finished product because, honestly, projects like this are what keep the maker world alive and exciting. Matt is absolutely killing it, and deserves all the love and support for his hard work!
Slight missed opportunity not making the rear mount look like a magsafe mount, but man, when the Type-C Pro Max showed up, I laughed out loud. Absolutely incredible.
There are certaintly plenty of people who do this, being an expert on glue is a true skill. Did you know that on modern air planes many parts are glued? Because it brings less tension than welding, has better behavior if entering failure mode etc (a glue will bend, while a weld will break) and so on.
@@Kranicated at the pro levels they are called adhesives. There are entire fields of study and engineering on them... Just another rabbit hole in the infinitely fractal sponge of all knowledge

"Scratches at a level 2 with deeper grooves at a level 3" ;)
It takes a special kind of person to keep going after a setback like that at the beginning, so hats off to you for that. And yeah, I’d also love to have a software expert like Lamar on hand for projects when needed!
Out of this world creativity! But it's so disheartening to see Arun taking all the credit for this everywhere throughout TH-cam despite all your hardwork.
Arun has written his name in the description of video ( he is even present in the arun video ) and also in his Instagram post so please don't comment without knowing something
Unrelated comment- I work night-shift and make use of all of your "artificial window's" series. I make them for me an my coworkers, when they bring me old TVS. I love them, set em up to timers and have them do daylight cycles The basic TV ones are easy to do, but the ones where you shine a LED through a soapy acrylic door look sooooooo nice. I want to do one of the acrylic ones in my closet, but i fear my closet isn't deep enough to really sell the effect/ idk It's been a while, and these are perfect for basement dwellers; if you ever think of a more compact design for the fancy ones, you should post it!!
I built one much like that big fancy one Matt made using a standard bowens mount reflector. It's not amazing, but it's very small and cheap. You can also get more expensive and larger bowens mount modifiers that work better. Instead of making a gigantic tank of water to put in front I was able to use the filter mount in the reflector to put the filter much closer to the light and therefore make it much smaller. Also containing water is a massive pain (not to mention heavy), but I found out that certain clear bathroom silicone caulk has the same effect. it's so much easier to work with, you just squeeze it into a mold and wait a couple days for it to dry and you never have to worry about leaks or water getting gross. I believe I used clear GE bathroom silicone (the cheapest stuff in home depot), but you might wanna try out a couple of different ones to find the one that looks the best. The filter I made works really great though.
Well it's hard to even call this DIY anymore. Many people collaborated and factories. So Design It Yourself - partially cause software was done by someone else Assemble It Yourself - also not quite Build It Yourself - not at all with many parts ordered outside and built or milled to spec.
Several times I did shout out "HOW ON EARTH" and yes, you actually made a state of the art. You never fail to give me shivers of how much power an engineer can have.
@@Sithhy It goes to both of them. It was a team of 10 people who made thw whole thing possible and these 2 are the head of this product so they both get credit
That’s incredibly impressive Matt. The camera part I don’t fully understand how they will work knowing how fiddly they are to get going when turned on and needing access to the camera to go through the menus. But also, I don’t understand what you are using for the front camera, I don’t think I missed it, did I?
Hey Mr Bloom! The front camera is an OBSBot Tiny 2 with all its pan/tilt features removed. I found it to be the 'webcam' with the best image quality by a significant margin (same class as a DJI Pocket 3 imo). The other cams are indeed a bit tricky, but it was the best combo I could find. The Sony presents itself to be connected to as soon as the phone is plugged into mains power (the camera is left 'on' so when usb power is detected it activates). As for the Canon, the rings need to be removed (they're magnetic) and an FN button pressed followed by a confirmation on the touchscreen, which connects it to a mobile hotspot that the phone is also connected to, so it's able to be accessed whenever without disrupting Internet access. It's a bit convoluted but it's the best I could come up with!
That was actuallly super cool, I loved how you dealt with with touch screen and the cameras. It would also be amazing to add like a gprs module and have it be able to actually call people from there. Hats off to the whole team!
Undoubtably this is your finest project to date. I see so many things from your previous projects come together in this one. Such as the computer in a desk. Absolutely well done. Congrats. Truly amazing.
@@kaiperdaens7670 Nah, you just need to replace the kernel and few drivers. One hacker would suffice. It does, however, break the licence, and it's Apple's discretion to prosecute or not.
I can't be the only one that finds round corner bevels really pleasing to look at at that scale Would love to see a tv that uses that instead of squared corners

Missed opportunity to add a Micro SD slot, when pulled out, would reveal a 3.5 desktop hard drive.
Hey... you are too young to remember 5.25 inch disk? :-D
@@akagi007 yes lol I'm a millennial f*ckhead
Or just a real micro SD slot. It would be so extremely small compared to this. I think that would be kind of funny.
Do Iphones allow micro SD cards??
@@anthonybf2 Yesterday during party I felt so young, but this morning I felt like four times trainwrecked, so I guess I am millenial too
That camera and flashlight alone are insane...but that frame and screen are MASTERPIECES, and the rest is just a bonus

Matt's smile after the first failure is the hope we need in this world
Matt, this might seem like an odd tangent, but seeing your dad get more and more involved with your projects (whether it's with assistance or even just making cameos) has been a treat; it's great to see father and son working together on a project. And in this one, you even got the help of a ton more, too! Your collaborative stuff is always fun to watch, and I look forward to seeing more of it!
31:34 for me, it kind of looks like an Ipad mini XL
Same. I think they were constrained to the tv dimensions so it’s not the correct scale.
That screen on a table would be the ultimate DnD tabletop experience
I remember thinking the same when Microsoft showed of the OG Surface.
You could also play 3v3 pong on it when played down
The OLED screen itself is $25,000. 😂
@@katlis and they broken one in the process so that’s 50,000 in just the screen before you add in anything else
This was ridiculous and my jaw dropped several times when you kept adding more tech to the build. I hope this becomes an interactive installation that the public can visit.
Lamar helped so much to make this happen, what a G.
Any time he needs me, I'm happy to help
Apple has 72 hours to respond in their Apple Event
Can’t wait for them to say “largest iPhone ever made” and just be like “about that”
Bro, I was here in your profile looking for a new video and found nothing, but boy oh boy I wasn't prepared for this, imagine having this mounted on Arun's tv room, with just the usb cable going to the outlet, must be a incredible center piece for a tech nerd (as myself), I would love one of these in my room!
INCREDIBLE work my friend, congratulations, You keep outworking yourself after all these years!
This is a piece of art! It belongs in the Contemporary Art Museum. I admire the engineering and craftsmanship. Thank you.😍

He wouldn't, Apple didn't pay him for the positive press.
I want to see how will marques do the intro for this one
@@saurabhprasad4712 “from my testing it’s not very portable but the screen is amazing”
Matt, this project is absolutely mind-blowing! Seriously, creating the world's largest iPhone isn't just some wild idea; it's a stroke of genius. The fact that you're pulling this off, even as Apple, the giant, looms over the tech world, is just incredible. How can you not admire their courage and vision?
The touchscreen issue sounds like a nightmare, but honestly, that workaround? Using acrylic to separate the touch layer and LOCA glue to keep everything crisp and functional? That’s some next-level ingenuity!
This isn’t just a massive iPhone for show; it’s a testament to what’s possible when people push beyond the limits of what’s expected. You can feel the passion and drive behind every detail. I’m so pumped to see the finished product because, honestly, projects like this are what keep the maker world alive and exciting. Matt is absolutely killing it, and deserves all the love and support for his hard work!
Cool post, TH-camrGPT
why people still using gpt to post comments, its easy to spot, there are so many better models out there
If anybody else did this they would have never done it at this quality. I applaud that. Also shout out to Lamar!
Slight missed opportunity not making the rear mount look like a magsafe mount, but man, when the Type-C Pro Max showed up, I laughed out loud. Absolutely incredible.
Maybe one of the MagSafe battery packs might be able to put the batteries in that and have the cable go through the back
5:28 imagine going into a job interview and they ask "where is your knowledge best at" and you say "glue, im really smart about glue"
There are certaintly plenty of people who do this, being an expert on glue is a true skill. Did you know that on modern air planes many parts are glued? Because it brings less tension than welding, has better behavior if entering failure mode etc (a glue will bend, while a weld will break) and so on.
@@georgelionon9050 how do you even find this out lol
did you just one day google "how are plane built"
@@Kranicated i've seen it on TV :) some feature about glue.
@@Kranicated at the pro levels they are called adhesives. There are entire fields of study and engineering on them... Just another rabbit hole in the infinitely fractal sponge of all knowledge

“With the help of my dad” is the best line of the whole episode.
@JerryRigEverything heavy breathing... 😂
i Love the irony, that Apple is not only roasted by being passed in subscribers... but also that "worlds largest iPhone" doesn't run on IOS but on Android...
What is well represents the security level of the two OS :)

Ty, Ty i appreciate it, im just the software guy tho!
LiteLotus oh here you are, i'm very thankful for your content guys! Love from Romania! ❤
You can see Matt's years of experience in full display in this project. Absolutely insane!
So many times in this video I found myself saying "damn that's an expensive part". This thing must have been SO expensive
The TV alone is 15k (and he used 2), then all the PC parts on top of that. Easily 50k.
@@cprn.The TV is 20k and Cnc parts also easily few thousands... And the touch layer was custom made, that's another few k on top... It's insane...
Well it is 75k
@@Unknown-64209 Counting the TV screen and the custom touch screen once or twice?
@@cprn.Twice and TVs are 25k each
It takes a special kind of person to keep going after a setback like that at the beginning, so hats off to you for that. And yeah, I’d also love to have a software expert like Lamar on hand for projects when needed!
i love that you made a giant android phone, and called it an iphone, love it
Android is just a software. The exterior is iPhone, the interior is a PC.
Now get Dbrand to skin it
So funny seeing Matt jam an r5 into the iPhone. I laughed, but really I shouldn’t have expected anything less.
Out of this world creativity! But it's so disheartening to see Arun taking all the credit for this everywhere throughout TH-cam despite all your hardwork.
Arun has written his name in the description of video ( he is even present in the arun video ) and also in his Instagram post so please don't comment without knowing something
well he did fund it lol
its how stakeholder works, though he get to keep the patent, just not the product
Unrelated comment-
I work night-shift and make use of all of your "artificial window's" series.
I make them for me an my coworkers, when they bring me old TVS. I love them, set em up to timers and have them do daylight cycles
The basic TV ones are easy to do, but the ones where you shine a LED through a soapy acrylic door look sooooooo nice.
I want to do one of the acrylic ones in my closet, but i fear my closet isn't deep enough to really sell the effect/ idk
It's been a while, and these are perfect for basement dwellers; if you ever think of a more compact design for the fancy ones, you should post it!!
I built one much like that big fancy one Matt made using a standard bowens mount reflector. It's not amazing, but it's very small and cheap. You can also get more expensive and larger bowens mount modifiers that work better.
Instead of making a gigantic tank of water to put in front I was able to use the filter mount in the reflector to put the filter much closer to the light and therefore make it much smaller.
Also containing water is a massive pain (not to mention heavy), but I found out that certain clear bathroom silicone caulk has the same effect. it's so much easier to work with, you just squeeze it into a mold and wait a couple days for it to dry and you never have to worry about leaks or water getting gross. I believe I used clear GE bathroom silicone (the cheapest stuff in home depot), but you might wanna try out a couple of different ones to find the one that looks the best. The filter I made works really great though.
@@avadrumm @nightfr09 you both need to post videos of what you did!

This level of DIY is absolutely mind blowing.
Well it's hard to even call this DIY anymore. Many people collaborated and factories.
So Design It Yourself - partially cause software was done by someone else
Assemble It Yourself - also not quite
Build It Yourself - not at all with many parts ordered outside and built or milled to spec.
Several times I did shout out "HOW ON EARTH" and yes, you actually made a state of the art. You never fail to give me shivers of how much power an engineer can have.
Aaron just financed the product. Only you made the world's largest iPhone. I think all the credit goes to you
Him financing it is amongst the reasons its possible stop glazing.
@@Earlybeggar But he doesn't deserve the Guinness world record, all credit should go to DIY Perks

Wait, arun paid the ice cream contactless. Where’s the NFC antenna? 🤔
😂😂😂
You'd have to bring the terminal to phone not other way round 😂
it's an USB NFC reader below of the cameras.
Imagine playing 8-Ball on a life-sized pool table 😂
That’s incredibly impressive Matt.
The camera part I don’t fully understand how they will work knowing how fiddly they are to get going when turned on and needing access to the camera to go through the menus.
But also, I don’t understand what you are using for the front camera, I don’t think I missed it, did I?
Sadly he never showed that part. But it seems like it's directly connected to the pc instead of the shit wireless thing the two main cameras are using
@@nilsekluund Yeah. A capture card would be much better.
watch mrs whos the boss video
@@Microxxd it didn’t answer my questions at all.
Hey Mr Bloom! The front camera is an OBSBot Tiny 2 with all its pan/tilt features removed. I found it to be the 'webcam' with the best image quality by a significant margin (same class as a DJI Pocket 3 imo).
The other cams are indeed a bit tricky, but it was the best combo I could find. The Sony presents itself to be connected to as soon as the phone is plugged into mains power (the camera is left 'on' so when usb power is detected it activates). As for the Canon, the rings need to be removed (they're magnetic) and an FN button pressed followed by a confirmation on the touchscreen, which connects it to a mobile hotspot that the phone is also connected to, so it's able to be accessed whenever without disrupting Internet access. It's a bit convoluted but it's the best I could come up with!
That was actuallly super cool, I loved how you dealt with with touch screen and the cameras. It would also be amazing to add like a gprs module and have it be able to actually call people from there. Hats off to the whole team!
Undoubtably this is your finest project to date.
I see so many things from your previous projects come together in this one.
Such as the computer in a desk.
Absolutely well done. Congrats.
Truly amazing.
