In 2007, the performance of the iPhone compared to other contemporary models. There’s really nothing more to say about the camera.

But I don’t think it’s wrong to say it’s the legacy of the modern smartphone because it’s an icon that changed the tech world.

The iPhone shown by the late Steve Jobs himself at Macworld 2007 cost $500 at the time and had only 4GB of storage and 8GB was $600, so even if you pay $150 for an Android phone released in 2023, you can still get 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

Now, the original iPhone didn’t have 4GB of storage available, and LCG Auctions, which auctioned it off, called it God’s “holy grail” drinking cup and was hard to find. The 8GB parking lot will cost $63,000 when it goes on sale, with a floor price of $2,500.

The first shipped 4GB iPhone sold at auction on June 30 for $10,000, with an estimated value of $50,000 to $100,000.

The value of this $10,000 auction was $42,000 on July 16, but surprisingly it grew to almost $200,000 in a short time.

When it first went on sale in 2007, the 4GB units sold for less than the 8GB and 16GB units. This makes me question the value of the auction, with people choosing 8GB for more than $100. It’s not unusual for an iPhone collector, but within reach, the iPhone X with USB-C sells for $86,000. The 2007 iPhone sold at auction for $39,339, and all of these iPhones were groundbreaking.

If you got $200,000 for an unlocked 2007 iPhone, would you mind bidding for an original 2GB iPhone or other items?
