Today is June 29, which means probably nothing for you. But if you have been a smartphone fanatic for a long time, this history is very important. On June 29, 2007, apple Issued the first generation iPhone. The device was introduced on January 9, 2007 by the late Steve Jobs, but Apple needed time to produce enough units. However, since the jobs unveiled the device in January, everyone was talking about the iPhone.
If you were not behind at the time, you might not understand how interesting the iPhone was. With touch screen and multi -touch, it was clear that Apple had a device that was about to change the world. In 2007, the process of buying an iPhone was much more crowd than now. A few days before the release of June 29, people started waiting at night in front of Apple stores.
18 years ago, consumers can choose between 4GB storage (9 499) and 8GB (9 599) between the iPhone. In the states, both models need a two -year contract with AT&T. I bought a 4GB model which is not too late after being released and i can clearly remember how slow AT & TEdge was a network. You saw the OGI phone not supported 3G which means that the phone was connected AT & T2.5G Edge Network. When not in the Wi -Fi range, the YouTube app was blurred and looked terrifying. You can’t use a browser and get phone calls simultaneously. If you had a safari open, the coming calls would go to the right on the visual sound mail.
Two months after the release date, Apple closed 4GB of variations and 16 GB model was released in February 2008. People who placed a 4GB model in the original box and never opened it are sitting on the gold mine. In July 2023, the non -opened 4GB phone was sold in a record amount of 190.372.80.
The iPhone 3G, which brought 3G contacts to the device, was introduced on June 9, 2008 and was released on July 11. Apple significantly reduced the price of $ 199 and 16 GB for the 8GB model, which was available in black and white. Of course, a couple of years AT & T Was still required in the US
The iPhone had kept itself for a couple of years for a couple of years, called the iPhone killer. In distrust, the first legal iPhone was Motorola Drod, a Verizon Special and the first phone to run Android 2.0 Acne. The drod was released in November 2009.
While many celebrate the anniversary of the OGI phone on January 9, this is just half the story. It is difficult to believe, but 18 years ago today was the day when the world changed.
