Fifteen years ago today,celebrity porn movies watch full celebrity sex movies Steve Jobs introduced the world to the iPhone.
From its humble beginnings as a bulky device dismissed by naysayers for being too expensive for mass markets, to something many people can't imagine living without. It's been a wild ride, in fact it feels like just yesterday we were celebrating the 10th anniversary. Speculation for the iPhone 14 has already started, but let's take a minute to look back and celebrate the iPhone's 15th birthday.
The iPhone was such a novel concept that Steve Jobs introduced it by describing it as a touchscreen iPod that makes calls and also has the internet. But with a puny 4GB of storage and a $499 price tag, the world would forever be changed.

This iPhone's squared-off edges was a departure from its rounded predecessors. Unfortunately, the design came at a cost. Because of the internal placement of the antenna, holding the iPhone inhibited network reception. With its new retina display, there were also many complaints of a yellowish discoloration that prompted an official statement from Apple.
By this point, Jobs was already battling pancreatic cancer, and his appearance was notable thinner.

After stepping down as CEO several weeks earlier, a day after the iPhone 4s was released, Steve Jobs died of complications from pancreatic cancer.

The somewhat underwhelming announcements prompted people to wonder about the future of Apple without Steve Jobs.

The iPhone 5s came with the Touch ID fingerprint sensor on the home button, AirDrop, and new camera features like Burst Mode and Slo-Mo videos. The iPhone 5s had mostly the same features but was with made plastic casing instead of metal. The iPhone 5s and 5c failed to impress investors which reignited concerns about Apple without Jobs.

At 4.7 and 5.5 inches respectively, the larger iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were a big hit especially in Chinese markets. Apple also introduced us to Apple Pay and the Health app.
Going bigger was a global success for Apple Credit: Getty Images For a few years now, the annual iPhone events revealed less groundbreaking features and more all-around advances and improvements. This year was no different, unless you consider the rose gold color option as groundbreaking.

The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus came with a headphone adaptor, but as Mashable accurately described, "It's a miserable compromise that adds a bouncy white phallus to your otherwise sleek iPhone." Ouch.

In case this was too much of a change for Apple users, there was also the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus that had a more classic design.

Despite some jokes, the iPhone 11's three-lens design has creates amazing images.

Apple also released a mini version of the standard size, but it lagged in sales, suggesting that sometimes bigger is better.

Regardless, the world will be watching to see what Apple comes up with next.
