When do you guys think we can expect to see top you tubers such as MKBHD and ijustine unbox the new iPhone SE?
 
No idea. Why not look at some unboxing videos of the 8 as the SE will likely be packaged in a similar way?

Today or tomorrow for sure.

This. Typically reviews drop the Wednesday before the delivery date. I am sure MKBHD has been using the phone for a few weeks now. If we do not get a full review tomorrow, I am sure first impression videos will hit.
 
Those saying "watch the iPhone 8 video". That applies for 11 to XR, 11 Pro to XS to X. iPhone 8 to 7. iPhone 6s to iPhone 6 and iPhone SE to iPhone 5s etc...

There are different colour options for the SE, and those that do unbox them will be turning them on and testing stuff out followed by a more in-depth review. That's what people are really waiting for I guess.

Come on, people are at home, bored, nothing to watch - let them have their excitement.
For me it makes no difference, but I know people who need a distraction from the real world.

Ah sure the journalistic value of YouTube unboxing, of course. And the in depth reviews, sure sure.

Just saying: if it’s the looks you’re after - look at the 8.

And last I checked this is the real world and these are real devices.

If you need distraction from reality maybe consume something that requires imagination like a work of fiction.

The iPhone SE has been a work off fiction for the past few years, as it’s been a made up story about how it’s coming soon since 2018!

And some YouTube reviewers are decent.

Like I said, doesn’t bother me personally but I was theorising why others might be looking forward to them.

... same way as virtually every other product...

wrapped in plastic with a tab to help unwrap, box lid comes off top, plastic tab to help get device out of box, stickers and manual underneath along with charger and accessories.

New Apple Smell
 
The biggest deal is the 3gb of Ram versus 2 and the A13 SOC. I am buying to upgrade my wife from and 8. The 8 will go to my teen who has been struggling with iPhone 6. It will be a win win.
 
I'd bet we will see first looks tomorrow. Official unboxing probably late Thursday in the US as Australia and New Zealand get deliveries on their Friday.
 
You can watch an iPhone 8 unboxing.

Legit Hilarious, but entirely accurate post here.

But there are some members on this site that like to just look at the box of the iPhone, literally (As in, I’m not even joking), they probably just want to see the box, even though the phone will look exactly the same.
