The modded device comes with a back panel made from natural wood. On top of it, there is a glossy titanium screen and the aforementioned circuit fragment of the original “Apple 1”. It even has thaticonic hand-made Apple brandingthat was there on the original device.
According to Caviar, they made the model of the circuit fragment based on the original motherboard structure of the “Apple 1” computer.The company used an official blueprint of the motherboard structurewhich is signed and approved by Wozniak himself.
Now, coming to the price of the device, it is good to see that the“Apple 1” iPhone 12costs much less than the extravagant pure gold one from the company. It comes witha price tag of $9,990(~Rs 7,34,894).
