In the context of Apple product engineering, the term "PE golden" typically refers to a milestone or version of a product that is considered the final, approved, and ready-for-production version. It is often associated with the point in the product development process where the design, functionality, and performance have been thoroughly reviewed and tested, and any necessary revisions or improvements have been made. This version is considered "golden" because it serves as the reference point for manufacturing and distribution, and any changes beyond this point may require additional validation and testing. For instance, when developing a new iPhone model, the "PE golden" version would be the one that has passed all quality assurance checks, meets design specifications, and is deemed ready for mass production. This milestone helps ensure consistency and quality in Apple's products.
i have a iphone XS smart battery case here with EVT firmware on it. it has mentions of air power inside. and configurations to enable/disable them. potentially interested?
@@2.vuthanhdanh965 i'd love to but it's all software on this one specifically. it looks and feels like your usual retail. it just is running very odd software that you can access using serial debuggers. they dont have a locked/encrypted iBoot.. so DCSD's stil work with them
Hmm. Serial suggests week 26 of 2017, ROW means ”rest of world” variant of the phone. PE would usually mean product engineering, golden meaning golden sample, i.e. a sample that seems most optimal.
PRB Stage is probably Production Ramp (Build), sitting before MP but after PVT. The rest of the markings make it seem likely that this was built during the production ramp phase, testing their ability to bring up more and more production lines (this one appears to be from F4).
Would I be able to load iOS firmware instead of the switchboard OS? Can I load my Xcode compiled apps into switchboard OS and play around with them? Probably missing all those required frameworks?
EDIT: I've watched some other videos, and now I think that my theories are probably invalid 😢 Maybe, but it's also possible that - Development iBoot doesn't support iTunes restoration - Development builds are probably not signed, but if they do, it might be using different key from the retail one. - Development iBoot may refuse to boot signed or production OS. - As mentioned above, it would destroy purpose of the prototype
first of all, it is not hacked, its a prototype worth about 10 thousand, as 2017 prototypes and above are rare. and its not junk, heck even your phone looked like this when it was in a employee's hand
This guy is on apples watchlist
I am sure apple does not care

I always love how apple engineers put funny references in prototype software.

*Production Example Golden*
Correct, also known just as "Gold Sample" This is common in the testing process of various electronic prototypes, even in the automotive world.
I really want to see a iphone x prototype
Bro same
Me too
I dont know whether it was real, but it was like gold iphone 7 with a touch ID button at the back. It looked hella ugly
it would be soo weird if iphone x doesnt had a notch
There are iPhone XR prototypes out there, it’s probably very similar to that
5:10 i like how there's a random cat on the console log
It’s pretty cool to see a prototype of a more recent iPhone rather than like a 3GS
Seeing Ness from Earthbound just casually on a development iPhone is hilarious 😅
I wonder what the app was supposed to test. It seemed to crash the phone
@@halami2149Ness SMAAAAAAASHed the iphone
BLATHERS?!
the fact that i see a prototype of the phone i daily drive and it's same color as well is surreal.
thanks Apple Demo!

could u show us more ab this?

Golden could suggest “golden master”, term frequently used to describe something that’s effectively what is going to production. Just a guess though.
I’ve seen CRB, FRB, but now PRB?? Damn, Apple was going crazy. I’d love to decode what they stand for
The OG has uploaded after months! Ima big fan btw
This yt channel is truly unique. Keep it up man!
This videos about iPhone prototypes are so interesting!
bro this guy is so underrated, ur amazing bru

I believe is Pilot Run before PVT.
Apple demo we love ur prototype content would love to see someday a iPhone X prototype
Neat this was one of the significant models
Thanks you so much!
really neat
I wonder if he'll ever come across an iPhone X prototype.
These were such a weird and almost unnecessary generation of iPhones but cool to see in beta stage.
Hi. Can you tell the name of the music that is playing in the background? I really liked it.
You have some random videos (ones from other channels, not about apple devices at all) in the apple prototype playlist
Man and i just found out about your old videos under "Fongool My Dongle" lmao
they actually build a prototype device for every model? i thought they just crop and edit through the photoshop.
could you please tell me what software you are using for logging boot information?
Its an Oled Screen ? Black screen seems very black on this prototype
No definitely an LCD look at the top right corner when it goes to white screen, the backlight looks weirdly diffuse in that area.
On the back sticker the ROW might mean “rest of world” variant, so it’s modem is different to US and china.
not Iphone ex! this is iphone TEN
damn, i was really hoping to see what the ness app was about
Where can I get an Apple Prototype like this?🤔
iPhone (ex)?
Does anyone ever dump the contents of these phones?
Would I be able to load iOS firmware instead of the switchboard OS? Can I load my Xcode compiled apps into switchboard OS and play around with them? Probably missing all those required frameworks?
You can load iOS on it if you really want but that would ruin the prototype.
I scanned the QR code at 4:50 and my phone rebooted?
The content of the qr code is
993-22725:LL/A:C7CTX0FNJ8V8:353776080215120:7%:NULL
Idk how you phone rebooted
HOLY SHIT!
The Unknownz icon is making me die...
pe golden might be a hint at a certain Test being passed successfully as in *Golden* to go to the next test
The PE Golden might be Peach Goldem, thats my guess
Great video, but the iPhone X is called by its number (ten), not by its letter (EX).
whats the inside😅
I wanna see the phone from inside
It’s pronounced iPhone 10.
Shank phone ❤😊
i use comic sans
ROW means Rest of the WORLD
Is there a possibility you could restore it with iTunes to an actual operating system?
That would completely destroy the purpose of this prototype. 😢
EDIT: I've watched some other videos, and now I think that my theories are probably invalid 😢
Maybe, but it's also possible that
- Development iBoot doesn't support iTunes restoration
- Development builds are probably not signed, but if they do, it might be using different key from the retail one.
- Development iBoot may refuse to boot signed or production OS.
- As mentioned above, it would destroy purpose of the prototype
That is something you should never do with prototypes.
Real iPhone 8?????
This is the iPhone 7s 😂
You know all those items are stolen right?
no really
no lmao
I figure in most cases these are simply devices retrieved from trash, and it is perfectly legal to do such a thing in most areas in California.

Whats stopping you from putting ios on a device like this?
Simply put, putting standard iOS on a device like this would most definitely get rid of its value.
The fact that it would completely ruin the whole point of the device and also entirely obliterate its value.
good in all except you said “iphone ex” like come on it was so good and you had to call the iphone X by a noob name. it’s pronounced “iphone ten”
Bro likes to play with junk broken iphones lol go touch grass like that iphone is hacked bro
Bro this is one of the rarest phone what are you yapping about lil kid
Your pfp make me know that you are fartherless motherless
It not broken it a prototype phone lol
Average 5 yo

Hey, I was wondering if you have the demo screensaver for the PowerBook G4 17”?
