Some customers who shop on the Temu website have shared amusing "what they ordered vs what they got" moments. One man, claiming to have purchased an iPhone from the site, humorously revealed the unexpected item he received instead.

Where is the iPhone?

A TikTokker using the handle @ceeyarh.rsa uploaded an unboxing video of the supposed iPhone he ordered from the international online store. In the clip, the young man showed an iPhone 5 box and removed the contents before getting to the phone.

However, instead of seeing the actual phone, @ceeyarh.rsa showed that he got a palm-sized device that looked as if it could entertain the littlies.

When a button on the side was pressed, the 'phone' made a weird noise similar to that on gaming devices. Clearly, it was not an iPhone 5.

"I'm never buying an iPhone from Temu again," complained the youngster.
