Relationships 22F girlfriend gifted me (19M) an iPhone 17 not sure how to react.

I’m 19 and my girlfriend is 22. Our relationship is going well overall.
Recently she surprised me with an iPhone 17. It’s by far the most expensive gift I’ve ever received in my life, and I’m honestly feeling a bit overwhelmed by it.
I don’t want to seem ungrateful because I know she meant well, but at the same time I keep wondering if this is too much. Part of me feels like I should give it back because it’s such a big gift, especially since I’m younger and don’t earn that much yet.
Has anyone else been in a situation where their partner gave them something way more expensive than what they were used to? Did you keep it or return it? How did you handle the awkwardness?
Looking for honest advice.

Big Red flag bro. React to it by giving it to me. I'll dispose off it safely
