Two phones, one pickup slot for Matthew Gonzalez's iPhone Duo

His only new upload follows the launch-minute checkout scramble at Apple's Dadeland Mall store.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

The iPhone Duo Pre-Order Was INSANE!

The earliest pickup slot is already gone when Matthew Gonzalez finally gets into the Apple Store app. He takes the next one, confirms payment and lets out a triumphant "Boom shakalaka." For a video about buying a phone, there's a lot of refreshing involved.

"The iPhone Duo Pre-Order Was INSANE!" was Matthew's only upload this week, and it has passed half a million views. He prepares two phones before orders open, keeps a world clock handy for the countdown and repeatedly refreshes both devices. His preference is store pickup rather than shipping, and the payoff is an order secured for release week.

The comments offer a second version of the checkout experience. Viewers compare leaving the app open with force-closing and reopening it, recount their own delivery windows and ask about his SpongeBob-style payment-card design. Several also bring CarterPCS into the conversation.

That October upload is now the channel's busiest viewing draw, followed by September's "I Was FIRST in Line for the NEW iPhone 18 Pro Max!" An older battery-endurance experiment, "How Fast Can A Gaming Laptop Die?", is also drawing fresh views.

Across the channel, daily viewing is running at nearly three times its usual level, though subscribers were unchanged over the week. Among similarly sized gadget channels, Parker Burton had a particularly busy week; Matthew's weekly views were closer to MrMobile's. His own week, meanwhile, found its main event in the anxious space between an app's waiting screen and a confirmed order.
