“He Should Be Grateful”: Man Buys R370 ‘iPhone 15 Pro Max’ for Brother’s Birthday

• A thoughtful man shared that he bought his brother an iPhone 15 Pro Max for his 21st birthday
• However, he paid R370 for the dupe that looked nothing like the original, despite it saying 15 Pro Max above the screen
• People in the comment section laughed at the knock-off after immediately spotting the non-iPhone features

A young man almost took on the role of Best Brother when he bought his sibling an 'iPhone 15 Pro Max' for his birthday.

In this day and age, having a phone is essential for communication. However, having the best-working phone is the cherry on top. One of those phones is the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which retails for roughly R30,000 or more. For TikTokker @thronethebarber, he only paid R370.

Taking to his TikTok account, @thronethebarber shared that he bought his brother the phone for his 21st birthday. In the video, the gentleman, presumably at a store selling replicas of well-known items at a discounted price, showed viewers a cellular device with the Apple logo on the back.
