A rare and sealed original iPhone from 2007 sold for a staggering USD 90,372.80 at an American auction website that features many unique and collectible items. The 4GB model, which LCG Auctions calls the preeminent example of an original Apple iPhone, was released on June 29, 2007. This first-generation iPhone had a modest two-megapixel camera. Nevertheless, the iPhone attracted 28 bids and fetched a price that could buy about 120 new iPhone 14 Pro Max devices. According to LCG, this iPhone is the Holy Grail for collectors because of its limited production and pristine condition.
