History of iPhone 4
Not every phone is so desperately loved and no less desperately hated. Each new generation of iPhones is met as a worldwide event, on the following days after the announcement, all the media just write about the novelty. Of course, we could not pass the iPhone 4 and tested it as soon as we could buy it.
By tradition - a little history. January 9, 2007 at the MacWorld conference, Apple CEO Steve Jobs presented the world a truly revolutionary phone. The new iPhone was "one in three faces" and combined a mobile phone, an Internet tablet and an iPod touch. The device blew up the mobile world and became a hit, despite the fact that he was not deprived of shortcomings. All manufacturers rushed to make their "killers" iPhone, but none could provide users with an equally convenient and simple touch interface.
A year later, on June 10, 2008, at the WWDC conference, Apple showed the second generation of its popular phone - the iPhone 3G. The handset was slightly changed externally, and also corrected a lot of hardware and software shortcomings of the first model. In particular, there was support for GPS.
A year later, WWDC saw the light of the third model - the iPhone 3GS. Strangely enough, but in her many were disappointed, since there was nothing particularly revolutionary in the tube. The design remained unchanged, the speed of work increased, the camera and the iPhone壁紙 screen design improved, a digital compass was added. In general, most decided not to change their 3G to 3GS and wait for something more interesting. And while they waited, competitors did not stand still - the young and actively developing Google Android OS started to achieve great success. Many interesting devices, an open platform, convenient touch control, scalability - all this attracted. Well, the technical specifications of "top" guglofonov noticeably "did" even the iPhone 3GS. In general, the phone from Apple in front of the giving positions, more and more often said that Jobs is about to imagine something like this, to keep interest in the iPhone afloat.
The work was boiling in Apple, but the surprise was spoiled - a few weeks before the announcement, a company employee lost a prototype of a new iPhone in the bar. He was found by a lucky man who sold the media tube for fabulous money. Although Apple blocked the prototype remotely, the journalists wrote a big review of the device, which broke all records for its popularity. For several days everyone was discussing whether this is an iPhone or some kind of fake, and if the real one is a coincidence of its loss or the planned PR-action of Apple (as is known, the company always closely monitored the secrecy when creating new products, and here such a "puncture" "). The oil was poured into the fire by Steve himself, saying that the new iPhone would be the best one that he created in life.
In general, June 7, 2010 long-awaited announcement still took place - the world saw the iPhone 4. "Everything has changed. Again, "- said on the Apple website on this memorable day. Indeed, the new iPhone was no longer secondary, like the 3GS model. Of course, this is not a revolution, as in the case of the first iPhone, but there are still some interesting technical innovations from the tube. First of all, you can not fail to mention the screen with an excellent resolution of 960x640 pixels, a gyro, a glass case. However, let's take care of everything in order - we present you with a detailed overview of the new iPhone 4. I'll just note that the handset once again beat all the records of popularity - it was written about a lot, said, but only for the first "weekend" was sold almost 1.7 million iPhone 4. According to the data for the middle of July, their customers have already found more than 3 million iPhones.
