the history of
the iPhone
Who and when was the iPhone invented?
The iPhone was first announced by Steve
Jobs at Macworld Expo on January 9, 2007.
How did the iPhone come about?
Jobs presented the iPhone as a
combination of three devices: "a
widescreen iPod with touch controls," "a
revolutionary mobile phone," and "a
breakthrough Internet communicator."
The iPhone went on sale on June 29,
2007 in the US, where thousands of
people were reported to have lined up
days before release.
What is the difference between an iPhone
and a smartphone?
iPhone is a smartphone created by Apple
that runs exclusively on their own iOS
operating system (or iPhone OS). Other
smartphones run on other platforms, but the
vast majority have a built-in Android
operating system.

In the first version of iOS, then still iPhone
OS, the phone lost to its competitors in
terms of functionality. What was so special
about him? It was a pleasure to work with,
all applications started smoothly and
quickly, and some familiar things were
simplified. The operating system was
completely closed, again at the initiative of
Steve Jobs, he wanted to have full control of
the phone. There was not even an App Store,
the ability to install applications appeared
only in the iPhone 3G. Apple didn't know
what to call their operating system, so they
said "iPhone runs on OS X". The
specifications also listed OS X as the
operating system.
