Unboxing... an Apple job offer

by Mike Schramm (Oct 5th, 2009)

This is exactly the kind of thing we love to see here at TUAW (and thanks for sending it along, Danny) -- Glyph of the Twisted project got a job offer from Apple last week, and over on his blog, he posts a set of unboxing pics. Which might sound silly (an unboxing for a new hire packet?), but ...

Honey, they shrunk the boxes: FCS now in convenient nano size

by Michael Rose (Jul 24th, 2009)

There's more on the inside, where it counts, but the boxes are definitely downsized: over at ilove.nu, Peter Esse has posted his comparative unboxing pictures from Logic Studio and Final Cut Studio 2 to the newly announced and shipping versions (note that Apple is just calling the product "Final ...

iPhone 3G S Launch: Unboxing video, Steve Sande style

by Steven Sande (Jun 20th, 2009)

Ahhhh. The smell of new electronics, released from their cardboard box after a week long journey from Shenzhen, China to Highlands Ranch, Colorado. The texture of a clean, fresh iPhone encased in its plastic wrapper. The fun of finding not one, but two little Apple stickers in your package. Yeah, ...

iPhone 3G S: first impressions on buying, smudges and what's in the box

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Jun 19th, 2009)

It's here, it's here! Check out the gallery below for what's in the box. Same as usual: headphones (the earbuds with volume control), sync cable, manuals (one called "Finger Tips" -- cute), the phone and a metal tool for popping the SIM out. The Finger Tips manual is updated to show off the new ...

Mac mini unboxing and dissection

by Mat Lu (Mar 4th, 2009)

The guys at Macminicolo.net have already gotten their hands on a new Mac mini, and they offer not only the obligatory unboxing, but a dis-assembly as well. As before it seems you can take the mini apart with a putty knife. A few parts have been moved around or re-oriented, and there are now three ...

TUAW Unboxes the new MacBook Pro

by Cory Bohon (Oct 17th, 2008)

It would seem that everyone is buzzing about the new MacBook/Pro, so I went and bought one! Seriously, it was just to do the unboxing photos for TUAW (Really! Stop looking at me like that!). In the MacBook video, Apple tells us that they have reduced the size of the boxes that the MacBooks ship in ...

New MacBook unboxing photos

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Oct 15th, 2008)

If, like myself, you can't tear yourself away from your G4 iBook long enough to upgrade to the latest and greatest consumer laptop from Cupertino, our friend Joe Russell saves you the fuss with his MacBook unboxing pics on Flickr. There are notable changes in the packaging: "Opening the box, ...

Found Footage: Unboxing goes a wee bit wrong

by Robert Palmer (Sep 15th, 2008)

Vimeo user UnBoxedLunch brings us this hilariously botched unboxing of an Apple Remote. Thankfully, no hospital visits were necessary as a result. As someone who professionally designs packaging, I'll know I've reached the apex of my career when someone destroys a container I've designed, and ...

by Scott McNulty (Jul 11th, 2008)

Ameo.com has posted some great unboxing pictures of the iPhone 3G (both the white and the black iPhone 3G gets unboxed). I'm sure the web will soon be flooded with unboxing pictures as people around the world excitedly rip their new phones open, but Ameo's pictures are some of the best unboxing ...

Hands-on with iPhone 3G, more unboxing photos

by Cory Bohon (Jul 8th, 2008)

BoyGeniusReport (BGR) somehow managed to get their hands on the new iPhone 3G a little earlier than anyone else. They have uploaded several high-quality pictures to show the comparisons between the 1st generation iPhone and the iPhone 3G. In addition, Paul Thurrott posted some iPhone 2.0 firmware ...

Found Footage: Unboxing a Twentieth Anniversary Mac

by Michael Rose (May 26th, 2008)

It's not every day that you can buy a brand new computer that's over 10 years old, but Alfred DiBlasi managed it: an eBay find of an original Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh, fresh in the box. In the 22-minute unboxing video (more than ample even by our standards) Al and his buddies remove the ...

Flickr Find: Lilliputian iPhone unboxing

by Nik Fletcher (Apr 22nd, 2008)

Like it or not, unboxing is a ritual for many Apple users, and when there's a new product on the streets, Flickr is home to many Mac users' latest acquisitions. We don't feature unboxing photosets for no-longer-new products all that often here at TUAW, but upon seeing a photoset on Flickr from ...

Engadget unboxes a Time Capsule

by Scott McNulty (Feb 29th, 2008)

My Time Capsule is sitting somewhere in China at the moment, but our friends over at Engadget managed to get their hands on one, and they have even posted some unboxing pictures. They note that the device itself is a little larger than you might think it is based on looking at the pictures on ...

Flickr Find: Apple IIc unboxing

by Mat Lu (Feb 4th, 2008)

Like geeks everywhere, here at TUAW we like unboxing pics. But unboxing shots from an original Apple IIc? Now that's Apple fan candy! This Apple IIc was recently purchased on eBay and had never been opened before. The lucky buyer posted this Flickr set of the ritual. I particularly love the old ...

iLounge posts iPod Classic, iPod nano unboxing pictures

by Scott McNulty (Sep 6th, 2007)

Our good friends at iLounge have gotten their hands on some brand new iPod Classics (both colors) and iPod nanos (all 5 colors) and did what any self respecting member of the Mac web would do: posted a bunch of unboxing pictures on Flickr. The iPod Classic comes in a box very much like the one the ...
