iPhone για 10 Χρόνια: Πριν από δέκα χρόνια τον Ιανουάριο του 2007 μέσα στο Moscone Center του San Francisco, ο Steve Jobs announced: "today we will make history".
It was her beginning presentationof a product that would change
forever the existing market ..
* The article was first published in 29 January of 2017.
Steve Jobs announced the new iPhone 9: 40 in the morning, saying that Apple will present three products: An iPod, a phone and an Internet communicator. After that he mentioned that the three above devices come in one called the iPhone.
H συσκευή δεν ήταν η πρώτη που διέθετε κάμερα. Δεν ήταν η πρώτη που έδινε τη δυνατότητα εγκατάστασης εφαρμογών αν και αρχικά δεν υπήρχε App Store. Ήταν όμως η πρώτη τρία σε ένα: κινητό, υπολογιστής και iPod όλα μαζί. Ο σχεδιασμός με ένα μόνο κεντρικό κουμπί λειτουργίας στο κέντρο του mobile but also the innovative touch technology was very innovative for the time.
The new device was innovative and, naturally, many followed, copying or adding to the original idea of Steve Jobs. Since then, much has been done. Since its first release, many changes have been made to the smartphone.
A major change was the introduction of the App Store, but also the different versions of the device that over the years began to appear in different sizes.
Recall the "innovative" features of the iPhone of the time:
The first generation of the iPhone had a price of up to 599 dollars. Weighed 136 grams and had pioneering features for that time, and obsolete for today:
Processor at 400 MHz, 128 MB RAM, 2 Megapixel camera, 3,5 inch screen with 320 × 480 resolution. The device had up to 16 Gigabytes of storage. It operated on AT&T's EDGE network, instead of the faster 3G. (3G came later).
2008 came the second iPhone: the iPhone 3G, with a black and white plastic cover on the back. This version also featured the App Store
2009 has brought 3GS improved to all features, but without any particular development.
The 2010 iPhone 4, was quite different in design, with rectangular shape and stainless steel in the device. With this version, the first complaints began. Many argued that the signal was weakening.
2011 with 4S, also has the ability to record HD video along with Siri's first digital assistant.
The iPhone To 2012 was the 5 model of the series, and came with a larger iPhone. It was an indication that the company was also involved in competition, which was not the beginning. The complains this time came for the Apple maps, which I just showed elsewhere.
2013 presented two models. 5S introduced with the Touch ID, and the "cheaper" 5C.
2014 introduced the iPhone 6 in two versions. The regular 4,7 inch screen and iPhone 6 Plus with 5,5 inch screen.
2015 introduced the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus, which did not contain any novelty.
2016 has come to the iPhone 7 again in two versions. The device offers both water and portrait mode. The portrait mode enables (with the camera's second camera) to shoot deep images.
Apple is now the most valuable company in the world, but after ten years the messages from the markets do not always agree.
For 2017, Apple announced that its iPhone was its most popular product. The company donated more than 50 million iPhone in the first quarter of 2017, which made it richer by 33.2 billion dollars.
10 years iPhone:
But we quote excerpts from our earlier publications:
2015: Copycats in the tech world are normal, even expected. But during the Developers Apple's conference on Monday, Tim Cook and his company, probably disappointed.
To date, Apple has established itself in the minds of consumers, as a pioneering company that creates totally new things.
For example, on the reign of Jobs, he created the smartphone with the mp3 player, which has made them very much in the eyes of the buying audience. This year, however, it did not look like a major upgrade of applications and services.
Read the whole article All were copies.
2016: Apple's winning corporation has reached record levels. With 14's continued years of revenue growth, the company boasts its dominance in technology, among very strong opponents.
But the company will probably confirm that this series has come to an end when it officially announces the fourth quarter earnings. For the 2016 financial year, which ended on September 30, analysts' estimates predicted that Apple would reveal 215.670.000.000 dollars as annual revenue. In the financial year 2015 the company had announced 233.720.000.000 $ profits.

Fall of Apple after 14 years at the top. Random?
Apple's Jobs seems to be a story. The new Apple, as a Tim Cook company, continued to enjoy the glories and brand awareness that Jobs created.
A brand name intertwined with innovation, smart products and design which was ahead of its time.
In the time of Tim Cook, innovation is called Apple Watch, iPhone SE, or pink gold color?
Apple has to stop being Jobs's boy and become the mother of new innovative products that will make her regain her old glory. (Does history reminisce of Greece today?)
Otherwise; The numbers unfortunately are relentless ...
The iPhone in the Future
From time to time we have published articles such as “Xiaomi Mi 6 breaks the AnTuTu benchmark record. ” Now there are other interesting devices for those who want a high-end device and the upcoming Xiami Mi 6 is just one example.
In order not to misunderstand I'm an iPhone user and I'm very happy with the device. I did not buy 6S before but I did not get 7 Plus this year. Let's not forget that iPhone made Apple the most valuable company in the world.
Hopefully the upcoming 2017 iPhone will make a difference. The company had promised it to its buying public. Shareholders meanwhile observe from the corner…
For those who want to remember when we first introduced the first iPhone, we cite the 2007 video:
