YouTuber Matthew Beem took his love of creating monumental builds to new heights. He recently built an ‘iPhone’ that is 8 feet tall. Yes, you read that right! Not just that, the phone is fully-functional and possesses all the usual features of its smaller counterpart. From capturing photographs to setting alarms and beyond, this larger-than-life phone has the basic features of a normal iPhone. Beem even documented the entire process of making this phone from scratch and shared the video on YouTube. He even took the phone around in New York City and recorded people’s reactions to it. Beem also gets his creation reviewed by famous tech reviewer Marques Brownlee (MKBHD).

“I built the world’s largest iPhone!” reads the caption written along with the video shared on YouTube by Matthew Beem. In the video’s description, he wrote, “I love technology and have a history of making some of the largest builds on YouTube so I decided to put my skills to the test and build the world’s largest working iPhone! I have never built anything like this before so this was extremely difficult. To top things off we drove this all the way to New York City to get people’s reactions in Times Square and surprise the top tech reviewer on the planet Marques Brownlee (MKBHD)! This video had lots of ups and downs, but we figured it all out, it turned out incredible and we would’ve broke the world record! This was insane and super intense to make, but we had lots of laughs along the way. I love making these videos and can’t wait for you to see what is next.”
The video opens to show Beem and his team making the phone from scratch using a touch-enabled TV screen connected to a Mac Mini. This setup allows the device to run the same applications commonly found on regular iPhones. Once the giant iPhone is successfully assembled, the team uses the calculator, clicks pictures and even sets the alarm. Beem also takes the phone to New York City and records people’s reactions. The sight of the massive phone leaves many in awe, with one enquiring, “Is that the 15 Pro Max?” Towards the end, the famous tech reviewer Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) reviews the phone. He expresses surprise at the phone’s massive size but is also impressed by its functionality.
