16 17

The video likely performed well due to the inherent curiosity surrounding upcoming iPhone models and the visual comparison between the two concept designs, tapping into anticipation for future technology.

The video displays two concept iPhones, labeled '16' and '17', side-by-side in their boxes. The creator then picks up the '16' model, showing its side profile, before placing it back and showing both phones with their screens on, displaying the Apple logo.

iPhone 16: appears as a concept phone, its interface is not operated, it generates nothing, and no visible result comes from it. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. iPhone 17: appears as a concept phone, its interface is not operated, it generates nothing, and no visible result comes from it. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
