If it weren’t for Pokémon go, I would probably use an iPhone 5 or 5s as my daily driver. Using old Apple devices is such a great feeling and they are also so much smaller and lighter.

The iPhone 4 style was my favorite by far. I had the 4S and loved it after apple moved to the all metal backs I stopped buying iPhones and moved on to android for a time, I got the note 9 as it was glass on the front and rear with metal edge just as the 4S. Then apple released the SE 2020 with metal and glass with the classic home button I picked one up in the first week and have been using it everyday. This video was just right.

i still have the 1st iPad from 2010 , jailbroken and it still rocks. back then i decided to backup all the ipa for this ipad and im super glad how worth while it was, can still play all the classic games on it, and twitter , reddit and OG youtube works.

This channel perfectly captures that nostalgia I have for these old Apple devices. I grew up with my dad having all the newest iPhones at the time, I remember being so blown away by how sharp the screen was on the 4 and how cool it was to see yourself with the front facing camera. I used to play loads of old games like Fruit Ninja and this one game that i can't remember the name of (you throw paper balls into a bin in like an office sort of setting, it was really fun) Great times they were indeed, time flies x) We'll probably look back at these times we have now in the future and just wonder how far tech has come.

This gave me so much nostalgia, the thick iMac, the old icons, the iPhone 4, redsn0w, everything.

I used an iPhone 4 as my daily driver for _many_ years (up until last weekend, actually); I had it on iOS 7.1.2, jailbroken (yes it was slow but it worked). I had Twitter, Minecraft, Instagram, KZfaq, Discord all working, my music library synced, all of my e-mail accounts loaded, iMessage working, etc. The battery somehow lasted over multiple days (2 days with normal use, sometimes 4-5 when I barely turned it on (in standby)), so even for a 12 year old phone, it worked well for me. I upgraded to an iPhone 12 mini which I updated to iOS 16 this morning. It's insanely fast, has a much better camera, better screen (not such a fan of how big the phone is though), and like a million other features that take a bit of getting used to but are generally nice QoL improvements. I never upgraded from my 4 as it did all that I needed it to, and having an up-to-date phone wasn't my biggest concern exactly. I'm still getting used to my 12 and it's quirks from a nine-versions-newer OS and the lack of my beloved jailbreak tweaks and personalisation, but I like it. The battery on the 12 mini when new is roughly equivalent to my 4 when it was around the age of 10 years old, but I'll let that pass given all the extra computationally-demanding stuff newer phones do these days. The iPhone 4 served me well for the 12 years I had it. Hopefully I can drag this 12 mini through the next decade as well, lol. :P

I was using a 6s plus until recently, legit still does the job after years of newer iPhone models being released. It’s insane how reliable iPhones are compared to other phones.

I've got iPhone 4 with iOS 7 but jailbroken it and installed 6.1.3 with dualboot Cydia app. 6.1.3 was best at that time and it can be seen as "true" iOS that started to change rapidly after iOS 7. I use it for fun to play "oldschool" games like old Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja etc. It's an amazing device and with how easy battery can be swapped to new im suprised these are still cheap as hell.

I love staying on old iOS versions, it just sucks that some apps I kinda need require newer versions and some websites don’t load correctly which is very annoying.

I remember owning a white 4S and I loved the all-white of it. I miss it after seeing this video, and a great device to still use.

Man! What Nostalgia trip this gave me I remember when they announced this I was trippin hard to get myself one of these and the 6 and 6s came out now that was a game changer.

I still have my 64GB iPhone 4s. I use it exclusively as an iPod and with my old 30-pin connector stuff. I had a 30 GB iPod 5.5 prior, but the drive was dying so I recovered the music on it onto my former iPhone instead. Had to get a new battery for it last week, tho (it was manufactured in 2012 and turned spicy pillow in 2022, I'd call that a good run). Otherwise it's still in mint condition thanks to the Ballistic Tough Jacket case and tempered glass screen protector. Luckily, when the original battery swelled up, the plastic frame separated from the glass back, allowing the original back glass to bend and not break. Took all of a day to go from normal sleek iPhone to fully ballooned out of it's case. Cell was still stable, holding charge and reporting good health right until the swelling, too.

It is definitely my favorite iPhone. It was compact and had a good heft to it that I liked. Also one of the most repairable Iphone's ever. If you had basic skills in repairing phones that phone will pretty much never completely die lol. I'm going to buy one and have it as a dedicated media player or something, they're dirt cheap nowadays.

My all time favorite is the iPhone 5. The combination between its shape, top power button and screen size is just perfect! Although it kinda competes with the iPhone 4 which has the glass back panel.

I have mine and still use it. It's like a "vintage" device now. I use it for podcasts, spotify, apple music and audiobooks.

I just love this man’s setup

I was looking for cables in an drawer where old cables go to die and found my iPhone 4 in its box. Busy charging it now and will jailbreak it as soon as it is charged. I forgot how cool the phone is. Going to love putting it to use again (probably mostly for music but that is still awesome! Thanks for the video.

Holy childhood……. Even just seeing those apps was a massive throwback of memories I completely forgot about!

I daily a jailbroken iPhone 5 until last month when I got myself a secondhand iPhone 12 Pro. For a phone that was a decade old it’s pretty nifty. Didn’t plan to fully retire that ol’ beauty too, since it’s still a fantastic second modem and an iPod, among other things.

please make more of these videos! I'd love to have the perfect iOS version for every device

Thank you I agree the iphone 4 is still feels great & I'll bust it out to start it up again

Looking back it’s actually amazing that they fit all of that technology in such a small form factor. Obviously we’ve gone along way but it was amazing at the time.

Thanks!! I have my iPhone 4s running iOS 9 and everything works grate even the AppStore and modern day apps

The iPhone 4S was my first phone ever (got it in 2013, time flies!) and it’s still my favorite phone. Its size was perfect for my hands and pockets. When the iPhone 13 mini came out I was ecstatic until I found it that it was still much bigger than the iPhone 4 and 5 models. I wish 3G was still around so I could use that old device :,(.

This guy is actually a legend

Please make a tutorial for downgrading I’ve been crying for a well done one for the longest plssss😩🙏🏼 love your vids keep up the great work!

I loved my iphone 4 it was jailbroken running like a champ. Thanks for the memories.

I Still have a 4s stored, recently found it in a drawer, and to this day and still works perfectly

My iPhone 4s stopped to work last year. But I still have it! In my opinion, the most beautiful iPhone ever made.

You deserve way more subs man, great content :D

I am mostly not too bothered what phone I have as long as it has plenty of onboard storage and will receive updates for a good while! As excited as I am to get an iPhone 14 Pro soon, I am mainly getting it because it has 1TB onboard storage and it will be the last iPhone to have a Lightning port and a physical SIM slot. I may sound a bit cheap for having got my iPhone 5 back in the day shortly after the 5S and 5C came out but I was still stuck with a 3GS, I needed a phone I could use iOS 7 on and money was a bit tight. Apple could announce a new iPhone with the same display technology as they used in the late 2000s and a basic camera but I'd still pick that as my next phone if it at least had a new (enough) processor, 1TB (maybe even 2TB) onboard storage and was guaranteed to keep getting updates for at least 4 years!

My favourite phone ever, when this came out I had to have it. Stainless steel and glass with an aluminium element vapor case.

Older iOS devices were so much more responsive and less bloated. They topped out at 16gb because that's all you needed back then.

I just love his videos. Really really cool.

I've been waiting for this video. 🙌

Switched to Iphone SE 2016 as my daily and only device this summer. Feels cool after so many years with android phones. I also like that i can use it completely with one hand!

Love this dude

I still use this phone for listening to my fav music and ngl this phone have better dac output compare to modern phone nowdays

I still have an iPhone 4 but it’s on iOS 7 and jailbroken and I was unaware I could downgrade. This is fantastic news! I also have a 3GS.

I keep an ipod 4th gen as my dedicated music player in my car always hooked up to bluetooth. Whenever it's too cold or too hot, i'll keep it on me and occasionally bring it out and have everyone around me go on a nostalgia trip but also simultaneously chastise me for using an ipod.

I’m sure there are tweaks that allow legacy social media apps to work properly with the old layout. If you could find them that would be so cool.

I recently replaced my iPhone 4 battery after a year of it being dead, this video really helps me see the potential of the iPhone!

I still have a iPhone 4s and loved it years ago... was thinking about using it as a daily driver for a week to reminisce .. its running IOS9.3.6

I still use my iPhone SE (2016). Had it for 6 years now, going to get the battery replaced soon.

I have an iPhone 4 on iOS 7.1.2 and it seems to work perfectly. I have even found some games for it too.

I recently saw a guy using a 4 or4s it was wild to see someone still using it

Thanks for the video , it´s interesting. I have been using my iPhone 4 for years… actually until the last year. My iPhone SE 128 GB has been a consistent replacement.

I understand you. I use Iphone SE 2016 today, I only changed battery and fixed broken display and hope one year will be ok. It is small, fast and just perfect not like these new tablets instead of phones.

My first smartphone was a hand-me-down iPhone 4, which I jailbroke on iOS 7 in 2014. I now use a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (because I switched to Android in 2017), and I'm looking forward to getting a Galaxy Z Fold phone eventually.

2 lovely designs ... Apple 4 / 5 and SE probably the best in the line up ...

please make a video on the ipad 3 as well, really beautiful device with a screen better than a lot of newer android tablets

You should definitely make a video about the PS Vita, such a cool device!

I have a second pre pay Sim in mine taking iMessage on the go with this so cool

I still got an old iPhone 4, build quality is superb

My favorite iPhone besides the 4S. If it what is practical to use one of these days I would.

Sick mate. I run this along side a Samsung note and it is the best hands down.

Best form factor period

This is amazing video with a lot of great helpful works very you.

Its 2022 and I'm still using iphone 5s, i replaced the battery recently and it works really fine🙂soo nostalgic

Use still today the iPhone 4S running on iOS 6.1.3. Years ago was updated to 8 which was terrible. I remember 6.1.2 and 7 where the best running iOS for iPhone 4S. Luckily was there an iPad issue and Apple made it possible to downgrade to 6.1.3. Since the downgrade isn’t not changed anymore. The old iPhone 4S browsers software is too old but the most essential works. As the video explained muziek etc. Important, it happened that the mails can’t be read properly on the newer iPhones. The mail structure is on newer iPhones sometimes confused. To avoid the confusion I take a look into the old iOS 6.1.3 and what for example iOS 16 made it difficult, the old iOS 6.1.3 correct this by reading very clear. Every mail is separated from each other which made it easier. Use also the phone for tethering. All other digital sources are running on the old iOS 6 tweak Tetherme as well slow on 3G. I’m not so technically but I think 3G has lower data use then 4G? So I’m not sure but I prefer to keep going with the old jailbreak tweak. Today very happy that the iPhone 4S is still running. Again, where the new iPhones where limited the 4S will mostly be able to helping out.

Nice I found one running iOS 4 2 days ago

Up until last month I used an SE from 2016, and it is still a perfectly capable phone. I switched to 13 mini, but it's just not the one. It's big, and heavy. I wish Apple would make a phone into the house of the SE without the upper chin and home button, and latest specs.

oh man, this is the best looking good iphone ever (proud i have one)

I'm still using iPhone 5 and 6s. Still pretty good until now❤️

i still have the talking cat to this day, it was the reason i wanted a touch screen phone years ago when someone showed it to me !

the iphone 4 is such a great phone i use my iphone 4 as a daily driver

imagine buying this for your child, jailbreaking it, downloading youtube and whatsapp, and it works

Had one of these loved it kept it for years just as a alarm clock. Then went to se1 and then 13 mini…the 4 has a problem not shown here because he has what looks like no sim installed. The problem is 3g shuts down at the end of the year…so no hope of calling or placing calls after that.

I still have mine and still works fine

My very first iPhone. 😎 Purchased it in August of 2010, for about $300. AT&T.

Yes do a video of jailbreaking and installing ios4

Kindly make a video about opening the country code/ carrier code. For example, if we have bought it from USA and then move to any other country like India/Pakistan/Bangladesh then how to make it operational for the sim cards there??

Underrated channel

I love ur videos sm!! :D

I love the iPhone 4 😊

I love guitar hero , I still have it on my ipod touch 2

This is a legendary phone

had my dads already jailbroken phone for atleast 3-4 years? dont have a use for them other than games, but now i can see differentt usage for it!,

This was my high school phone, this and the 4s. I was absolutely enthralled the first time I saw this design, and it wasn't until years later that I actually carried one. No sim card, just WiFi. I was living with the iPhone 4 around the time iOS 7 hit and then muscled my way into a 4s. Now that I work and get paid, I still use older phones. I have a strong fear of being without a headphone jack.

SO surprised that Flappy Bird wasn’t sideloaded on this; it’s iconic.

The 4s was probably my favorite iPhone ever

How to download I phone6 unsupported apps ? Like a KZfaq , Instagram social media apps?

I have a tethered iPhone 4 running 4.1 but the jailbreak tweaks don’t work for whatever reason. Also I need an untethered version, I really can’t stand the tether boot you do every single time you shut it off! I have a late 2014 Mac mini with Mac OS big sur, will it still work with my iPhone 4?

Right now put the speaker deep inside the phone to make the tunel dip hence shot gun fx

My first phone😍😍, has memories with it🤗

A classic design to this day.

I think upgrade system would be great for older iPhones upgrade new chips or upgrades

I love the iPhone 4

I love your videos man you are a awesome

That's awesome and cool bro

Please do a video on downgrading the iPhone 4 to iOS 4!! That would be amazing to do since I still have an iPhone 4 on iOS 7.1.2

How did you get Guitar Hero working on your device? All the IPAs online I have tried crash on loading.

I love old iPhone🥰

I was using my jail broken iPhone 3GS running on iOS 4.1 up until 3g was shut down in 2022. Still functions as a neat little iPod and I take it with me if I feel like I want to confuse my friends. 😂

How do you restore oleophobic coating on it to make finger slide ok? Tempered glasses make screen look "sweaty", and original coating will wear in duration of 3-4 years to almost unusable fingerprint magnet

i would love to have such a small device for phone+text+podcast :)

I use my iPhone 4 to play my old, nostalgic games. Since Apple removed the ability to download old games in iOS 11, and my iPhone 4 is on iOS 7, I can play my old games on the phone.

I wish modern iOS could bring in that nice skeuomorphic esthetic

I felt unwell when I lost in minutes inside the office just after miko lost his my iphone4. I checked it with security officers but disappeared in 2012. One of the best pioneer edgy brand of an iphone. Handy, Small, pocket friendly, and the best battery life. Hoping to have one again soon.😀

I love how the new iPhones have gone back to that blocky style. iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 were my favorite designs out of all of them, and the 12 brought that back which I'm sure gave a ton of older Apple users nostalgia. I dont much like most of what Apple does in terms of data and stuff like that, but my phone right now is an iPhone 6s and I love it. Apple knows how to please their audience, which is why they're still one of the biggest phone companies out there.
