Okay. So I was looking at my iPhone box collection and trying to understand the changes that they've made throughout the years. And instead I ended up going down this rabbit hole of hidden Apple packaging Better eggs. So on this iPhone three gs box, you can see the clock says 09:42. This is very purposeful because the first ever iPhone was revealed at 09:42AM. This next Easter egg is more on the conspiracy side of things. It's not clear whether it was intentional or not better it's still pretty cool. So this is my iPhone 12 pro box. If we open this up, you can see this tray in the bottom that holds your charging cable and your paperwork. Does it look like anything to you? There are a lot of people out there that think Apple designed this tray to look like an iPod classic. I don't know. Best one you can actually find on the new iPhone 17 Pro box. If you use a UV light, you can see some hidden text. Let's see if that's true. Alright. Light on and you guys can see it says iPhone up here in the corner. I wonder if there's any Better eggs hidden inside the actual phone.
