Retro Unboxing
United Kingdom
Registrace 27. 11. 2019
A look back at the computers, consoles and gadgets from my childhood and youth. I'm looking to recreate the unboxing and setup experience as closely as possible. From my first Commodore 64 - right up to Xbox One X I have always had an unhealthy interest in all things computer, console and gadget!
I will be trying my best to track down all of the wonderful gaming devices that I have previously owned. Where possible I will be looking for 'sealed box' examples, closely followed by 'mint in box with all packaging'.
My gaming and gadget past starts here...........!

Updating iPhone 4 From iOS 5 To iOS 7 & How Microsoft Saved The Day!!
zhlédnutí 879Před 4 měsíci
I decided to update this freshly activated iPhone 4 to the latest available version of IOS 7.1.1 (I'd hoped that Airdrop would be available post update) in order to be able to transfer the photos and videos off of the device. It does now make me wonder if Onedrive would have worked on 5.1.1 though 😬🫣

Amstrad 464 Plus & CM14 Monitor Refurb & Switch On! Part 2

I managed to get this thing cleaned up nicely! The monitor is actually immaculate 'as new'. It turns on and off and loads games reliably, so I'm very happy with it!

I picked this up locally for £150. I'd never had one before so its been a journey of discovery for me..... This is Part 1, the unboxing and first look. Part 2 will come very soon, where I clean, refurb and fix the machine, and get it fired up!
Mac Pro 5,1 Twin Xeon X5690 Upgrade + NVME & RX580 GPU Update... & I'm Back On Mojave 😐
zhlédnutí 3,7KPřed rokem
Sorry it's been so long for this update.... I shot this months ago, but started a new job and haven't had the time to revisit this. I upgrade the CPU's to 2 x Xeon X590's - £65 from ebay...... While I was at it, I swapped the GPU and NVME Card around - this works better but you only have access to 3 card slots now.... as the GPU blocks the lower x4 Slot. Hey ho. I dropped Monterey and Opencore ...

The first upgrade for my Mac Pro 5,1 Project! I picked the RX580 up locally for £100, which I thought quite reasonable. In this video I install the card and do a quick benchmark... There are more upgrades to come, so please like and subscribe to see more! Thanks for watching :-)
Can the £60 2013 iMac Edit 4K Video On Final Cut Pro?? | Part 3
zhlédnutí 369Před rokem
Yes. Yes it can! Now that I have finished the refurb of this £60 iMac its time to put it to the test... no benchmarks, just real work usage... Obviously its no longer a '£60' iMac, as The SSD was £19, and the ram £20 - so it should really be known as the £99 iMac... However..... This wonderful little machine edited this entire 4K video with ease - no proxies were used, the timeline worked very ...

This is the £60 Slim iMac that i picked up the other week.... It's not quite 'triggers broom' but I have replace the old HDD with an SSD, I upgraded the 8GB of Ram to 16GB, and replace the manky old damaged stand... I've also fully updated to MacOS Catalina. The trouble is that it Catalina won't allow you to run the latest software. My next plan is to update it to Monterey, or possibly Ventura ...

In this video I have a quick look around it before deciding on upgrades! i've already order a Radeon 580 8GB for £100, and i'm going to try and keep my total spend to below £500 for the project.

£75 For A Slim 2014 iMac! | Cheapest iMac In The UK? | Is It Worth SSD Upgrade & Refurb?

I saw this on Facebook Marketplace for £75 and couldn't help myself. I've checked all the main selling and sites and believe this to be the cheapest Slimline iMac in the UK... maybe even the world??!! I couldn't upgrade the RAM, but the SSD has made a huge difference to performance... I love the styling of these old Macs, its no wonder Apple didn't change the form factor for so long! I have sub...
SSD In A 2011 iMac - Is It Worth The Hassle? A1311
zhlédnutí 7KPřed rokem
This 2011 iMac is still very useable in 2022. I could happily do 90% of my daily on it. With the SSD and Ram upgrades It runs and edits 4k on FCP (although take a while to render/export). A testament to Apple build quality! Its a shame that the latest MacOs is not supported, however I am considering installing Monterey via the unofficial method!

Short answer yes but way to expensive to collect for like Mario kart double dash is over $100
Co0l hehehe
My list from best to worst: 1. Call of Duty 2 2. Need for Speed: Most Wanted 3. PGR3 4. Tony Hawk's American Wasteland 5. Condemned: Criminal Origins 6. Gun 7. Quake 4 7. Madden 06 9. Kameo 10. NBA Live 06 11. NHL 2K6 12. NBA 2K6 13. Perfect Dark: Zero 14. King Kong 15. Amped 3 16. Tiger Woods: PGA Tour 06 17. Fifa 06 18. Ridge Racer 6 One of the best console launch lineups of all time. There was something for pretty much everybody, and that's not even including the XBLA launch titles. The only game in this launch lineup that I'd consider a bad game is Ridge Racer 6.
Like how the background music gives it an air of nostalgically looking back at hose days
So the server is actually still online the only thing is that you have to go thru a couple hopes to get to work
The smallest crt tv size I'll take is 20 inches.
I have an old Amstrad CPC 464 and a 6128 Plus and the Plus is a fantastic machine but few games released for it at the time really makes proper use of the PLUS features. It's obviously nowhere near an Amiga but it's still a properly good computer. The record button would be used for either saving a BASIC listing to tape, saving a game save to tape, (think something like SimCity) or even saving a WIP game's source code/master to tape. People did actually develop Amstrad games on a real Amstrad sometimes.
I have a problem, I installed the RX580 card in a 5.1 (with Catalina 10.15.7) and I have a green tint, how can that be - what can I do? How can I download and update the driver?
How many inches is that?
Very good
ive got a rx5700xt in mine runs great i really love the mac pro

Does this console have leaky capacitors?
Xbox 360 came out in 2005. Not 2007.
My first phone 2004. Granma gave it as gift. Didnt know i had the coolest phone. Lol
The PS3 Slim Could Play CDs,DVDs,Blue-Rays,PS1 and PS3 Games but Not PS2 Games
Question : I got an "old" iMAC with that "?" mark folder flashing ................but the "command + R" combination did NOT take me to recovery. Actually, nothing happens. Not even a WIFI network prompt. Could it be that the drive is just DEAD ? If i throw a brand new SSD in there, will it boot up ?? Thanks
Upgrade the ram
This is a awesome phone! I'm planning to get another Motorola RAZR V3i on Cingular. :3
100 percent not 29 inches its a 25 like mine
The KV-29F3U model number on the back, and my hernia from carrying it around would beg to differ.... but if you're 100% then I'll go with that 🫡
Great video, just doing the same job for a friend!
Where is part two
czcams.com/video/d9wTKlki3Iw/video.html This is a follow up. I couldn't finish the refurb as there was a network lock on the first, and then this one came up on eBay shortly after!
My Dad had this back in 2004 and it was an awesome colored phone. I remember using it to call my grandma that lives in Florida, USA
First phone I ever bought for myself. It was brand new and I got it unlocked since Verizon wasn't going to carry it for several more months.

Asus NVME card only allows one to be used on Mac Pro 5,1.
Hi Jonathan. Ate you still using your Mac Pro 5,1?
Such a shame the 2g network got shut down
Using this video today. Thank you!
Resolution was bad, but that six pack still got me riled up like nobody's business when you got that late night text. 🙂
no driver install needed ???
Where did you find a brand new original xbpx in 2020??! i want one too lol
Gamecube man these one of my childhood memories me i was a kid playing star fox , f-zero , metroid , mario , zelda , pokemon , animal crossing , pikmin , super smash bros those were the memories man 💕🥰
work in mojave and only install plug and play?
I have a converter close to yours I wanted to use to hook my Xbox Series X to a CRTV aswell, but it doesn't work... But, my newer gaming laptop can hook up just fine. Any suggestions?
Hmm - have you tried changing resolution on the xbox? I may have a play with mine - see if I can get the Series X running on this monitor!
@@retro-unboxing yeah, I tried it on 720 and still nothing.
Texting girls on these back in the day was way more fun, fuklk i miss that. Horrible now. Writing this on my phone 😢
Hi, do you still have this and would like to sell it?
I woulda died of laughter if you then threw the entire mac pro off the screen as well. Kinda sad you couldnt figure out how to gaff that lol.
Mario party vs the great Muppet caper
My first smartphone was 4S, loved it. Then Apple ruined it with iOS 7🤬
the background music so sad
Ahh the GameCube what a great little system i was fortunate enough to get a PS2 and a GameCube manly because in the UK Argos and Dixons had to drop the price so low on the GameCube cuz no one was buying them So I was living the dream that gen :D A school friend of mine had an original Xbox as well So that was the only generation that I was able to play all 3 systems They're all worth owning in my opinion :D
You couldn’t have at least saved the blobs…
I've no plan to downgrade. I'm happy to have one phone on iOS 5 and one on iOS 7.
@@retro-unboxing Ok but you just destroyed any chances of this phone ever running iOS 5 natively again for anyone else
@@Arkid77777while that is true, I have no plan to sell it!
God, I forgot how long it took to boot up that phone
I'll sub I guess, this just hurt though. I could've given you my iOS 7 iphone 4.......
Love the reluctant sub.... Thanks! As mentioned, I still have the sealed iPhone 4 on iOS 5, and they don't seem that rare in the UK at least...
@@retro-unboxing they're rare to find in the USA
Feels like a crime to update such a rare find I’m Subbing
Ha, thanks for the sub…. I have another iPhone 4 on iOS 5, so was happy to update this one….
You should’ve just bought one on iOS 7 for 15$ and keep this stock, so much rarity and value was wasted
I still have the sealed one on iOS 5 so not too worried about…. Now I have one of each
First phone to have a always on display feature
Maybe a first for a colour screen? (although it was one of the first colour screens outside of Japan), but all of the Nokias, and Ericcsons LCD screens were actually always on.... battery bar, signal bars and cell provider etc....
