White iPhone 4 Unboxing!This is the Unboxing of the Highly Anticipated White iPhone 4!
White iphone 4 unboxing demonstrati...Here's what "appears" to be a white iPhone 4 unboxed and being demonstrated by a customer in Ontario, Canada. This was reported by Marc Gurman of 9to5Mac.com. On this model, the LED flash doesn't have the tell-tale design issue as the white iPhone kits that have been populating the Internet. This may be an international model scrapped by Apple at the last minute after defects in the white color clarity were found. We cannot verify the authenticity of this video, but at the same time, it looks like the "real deal" and certainly "works" just like one ... also enjoy the reviewers famous "last words" ... I think he was about to CRY!!! NOTE: ALL credit for this video goes to the original reviewer and 9to5Mac.com for the article link on their website.
