Biggest iPhone in the world built to 'overtake Apple' has features smaller versions could only dream of

Someone built what’s being called the biggest iPhone in the world to overtake Apple.

It’s a scaled-up, fully working smartphone that can run apps, take photos, and even make contactless payments.

The build took more than a year, and it was designed to look and behave like an iPhone in all the ways that matter.

But what makes it even more interesting is what they chose to put inside it.

The world’s biggest iPhone is basically a supercomputer on wheels

The project comes from YouTuber Mrwhosetheboss, who revealed what is now officially the largest smartphone replica ever certified by Guinness World Records.

At roughly 15 times the scale of a normal iPhone and stretching just over eight feet tall (2.54m), this thing isn’t just oversized for laughs. 

It actually works. 

Calls, texts, payments, apps, video calls – all of it.

And the hardware choices are where things get crazy.

The rear camera is a full-frame Canon EOS R5 shooting true 8K video, with a sensor more than 10 times larger than what Apple uses. 

Zoom duties are handled by a periscope-style mirror system capable of 25x optical zoom and up to 100x digitally, without turning everything into pixel soup.

Powering it all is essentially a high-end PC hiding inside a phone shell. 

We’re talking 128GB of RAM, a 24-core Intel i9 processor, and a dedicated AMD GPU. 

Storage tops out at 4TB, split so the device can boot either Android or Windows. 

And the screen is just as absurd: an 88-inch 8K OLED panel from LG that had to be custom-laminated to work as a touchscreen. 

Even the flashlight is impressive – a 400-watt light source that needs its own liquid cooling loop to avoid cooking itself.

Not just a stunt, a very deliberate statement

This wasn’t built to replace your phone. 

It weighs well over a ton, needs eight people to lift it, and plugs into a custom charging port because USB-C didn’t stand a chance.

But that’s the point.

By building the world’s biggest iPhone and exaggerating everything Apple keeps constrained – camera size, cooling, power, modularity – the project turns into a physical critique of modern smartphones. 

It shows what happens when you remove limits and let engineers go feral.

Apple’s design philosophy is all about restraint. 

This thing is about excess.

And somewhere between the 50-watt speakers, the cinematic selfies, and the fact it can still buy ice cream with tap-to-pay, it lands its message.

You don’t beat Apple by making a better phone.

You beat them by making something so over the top that it forces everyone to look.
