A first-generation, unopened iPhone from 2007 sold for more than $63,000 at an auction on Sunday. It's the highest price an original iPhone has been sold for.
LCG Auctions, which handled the auction, said on its website the device went for $63,356.40, which was more than 100 times its original price.
More than 15 years ago, Apple sold the original iPhone for $599. The gadget was initially available with 4GB or 8GB of storage, a 2-megapixel camera, and a 3.5-inch screen, per LCG Auctions.
