What should I see the first time I take the iPhone out of the box?

Hi, everybody.

The first time you take an iPhone out of the box, it turns itself on.

How is this implemented? With a light sensor?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Even the iPad Mini 4 has the light sensor that turns the unit on/off when you uncover/cover the screen!
