iPhone parody perfectly mocks excitement over lackluster Apple Event
Watch Next

We all love paying gobs of money for slightly updated phones that no longer come with basic accessories, don't we folks?

OK, yes, that is an over-generalization, but it is a relatively fitting description of how some people feel about the new iPhone 12 announcements. YouTube account jacksfilms put out a parody version of Tuesday's big announcement that does a great job of sarcastically mocking Apple's latest offering. It uses real footage from the event but adds some vastly different narration.

"With the increased pixel density, you can doomscroll with twice the resolution," the mock ad says. "So when someone dies and gets canceled, you can scream, 'Mama mia, what a crispy tweet!"
