The History of Iphone

iPhone History

In the few short years since its initial release, the Apple iPhone has become one of the most highly sought after mobile devices in history. Ever since the unveiling of the first generation, consumers have loved the device’s sleek, attractive styling and revolutionary features. With each new release, Apple continues to impress shoppers more and more by unveiling features that are completely new in the market. In doing so, they have captivated Apple fans spanning the globe.

The first generation iPhone was unveiled in January of 2007 and first became available to American buyers in June of that year. Though millions were manufactured, Apple still struggled to keep up with demand, and customers waited in line throughout the night just to be the first to get their hands on the hot new device. The first generation iPhone was born from Steve Jobs’ idea of a computer that would be touchscreen based rather than needing a keyboard or mouse. Instead of a computer, the idea was turned into the first iPhone.

Roughly 18 months later, the iPhone 3G was unveiled. Many of the features remained the same, but there were a few key changes that led to more than 1 million sales during the phone’s first weekend on the market. As the name suggests, it supported faster 3G data. It was also the first iPhone to support Assisted GPS. The 3G received a huge upgrade in design as well.

When the iPhone 3GS was released roughly a year later, it was primarily designed for speed. In fact, the S in 3GS stands for speed. In addition to boosting the device’s speed and performance, Apple also increased the camera from 2 MP to 3 MP and added video capability.

The iPhone 4, released in June of 2010, was the first to really offer huge changes. The phone was redesigned to be thinner and completely flat. Made with an aluminum frame with a glass front and back, it looks and feels completely different from earlier generations made from polycarbonate. The camera was upgraded once again to 5 MP and 720p HD recording capabilities. A front facing camera was also added. A gyroscopic sensor, powerful A4 chip and retina display round out the most appealing features of the iPhone 4.

Announced in October of 2011, the iPhone 4S remains similar to the iPhone 4 on the outside. Inside, however, there are several upgrades. The camera has been upgraded to 8 MP, and the device has a better antenna. One of the most popular features, however, is the addition of Siri, which allows users to command their phone using their voice.

The iPhone got another redesign with the release of the iPhone 5 in September of 2012. It is thinner, taller and has a metal back. The screen is also larger. The iPhone 5 is the first to support 4G LTE networks. The latest model uses a smaller dock connector, and it debuts with the new operating system iOS 6. With each release, Apple offers new devices that continue to impress customers and revolutionize the cell phone industry.

Unusual Wireless Device Accessories

Unusual smartphone and wireless device accessories are ideal when it comes to making mobile devices stand out. There is a seemingly infinite number of personal electronics currently on the market, and in many ways, they are all quite similar. While there are millions of different accessories available, many are fairly standard too.

Whether you are looking for a unique gift for the techie lover who has everything or you are trying to find a way for your own device to stand out a little from the crowd and reflect your own individual personality, unique accessories are the way to go.

For the majority of users, function and protection are the two most important considerations when choosing accessories for their mobile devices. Most of today’s cell phones, smartphones, tablets and other electronics aren’t cheap, so keeping them safe from accidental damage is key.

Sure, you could pick up a standard plastic protector cover to prevent scuffs and scratches, but why not go with something that is a bit more unique? Carbon fiber skins are ideal for protecting every inch of an expensive device like the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S. Because they are remarkably thin, they do not detract from the iPhone’s own aesthetic appeal, but because they are made from tough carbon fiber, they offer a high degree of protection.

Unusual cellphone, smartphone and wireless device accessories even come in the form of unique carrying cases. Belt clips are no longer the only available option. Wouldn’t it be convenient if you could turn yourself or any surface into a magnetic holder? With the BodyDock from CellArmor, you can do just that. It comes with a rugged case with a magnetic back and several magnets designed for a variety of uses.

The idea is to allow users to magnetically dock their device in numerous locations with just one BodyDock kit. The magnets are very strong, and the case itself is made up of multiple layers for the highest degree in shock protection. The kit also comes with a screen protector and bezel sticker to ensure that the entire device is kept safe and secure.

Of course, not all unique accessories are designed entirely for functionality or as a solution to a problem. Some are just plain fun. If you love your high-tech gear but sometimes long for something a bit more nostalgic, the retro handset is the perfect choice. It plugs into the headphone jack on a cell phone or smartphone and, as the name suggests, turns it into a retro style telephone handset. If you are walking down the street using one of these, you are sure to attract some attention. As an added bonus, this handset does cut down on radiation exposure and can be more comfortable to cradle between the shoulder and ear.

Picking up some unusual cell phone, smartphone and wireless device accessories is a simple way to make mobile electronics stand out among countless others that are just like it. Whether you are looking for products that serve purely functional purposes or you want something that’s just plain quirky and unique, it is possible to find something that suits any taste.

PureGear Accessories for Iphone and Smartphones

PureGear Accessories Wholesale

Some mobile device case manufacturers view themselves as courageous protectors of your phones, tablets and Kindles. PureGear, on the other hand, sees its mission a little bit differently. PureGear doesn’t just want to protect your cell phone or your iPad; PureGear wants to make every mobile device you have safer but also more functional and practical. To that end, PureGear offers protective cases for mobile devices, but the company also offers a variety of other mobile accessories.

PureGear Pure Protection

When it comes to protective cases, almost nothing beats the iPhone 4/4S PX360 Extreme Protection System from PureGear. To prove that it’s a case made for someone with a rugged, outdoorsy lifestyle, this protector case actually comes with a carabiner attached to the case’s tough outer loop. Although the carabiner makes this case look almost like a giant key chain, for hikers or mountain bikers who just want to clip their phone onto a pack and forget about it, the PX360 is the perfect iPhone 4 case.

Not an iPhone user or don’t need a case that’s quite so rugged? PureGear offers simpler protective cases for the iPhone and many other mobile devices.

PureGear Power Chargers

PureGear also has a number of device chargers. To start with, there’s the popular Dual USB car charger which charges two devices at once quite quickly. There’s also a similar PureGear Dual USB charger that plugs into the wall for those rare times when you’re actually stationary.

Another helpful charger device is the One-for-All Car Charger, which works both with the iPhone 4 and the iPad. The device automatically detects the circuitry to provide the right charge for the right device.

Besides chargers, PureGear also produces a line of USB cables for various mobile devices. For instance, PureGear makes several different USB charge/sync cables that makes it easy to keep a mobile device charged when you’re near your computer but not near a car charger or wall outlet.

PureGear Sounds

PureGear makes several different earbuds that double as hands-free devices. The PureBoom headset provides excellent sound quality for music and entertainment, while the high-grade microphone makes answering phone calls halfway through a song a snap. The PureBoom headset includes an answer/end/play/pause button directly on the cable that makes switching back and forth between music and a phone call easy.

PureGear Accessories are Smart and Simple for Smartphones

PureGear’s unofficial motto is “smart and simple.” Everything they create, whether it’s a car charger or a cell phone holster, is designed to provide maximum versatility and practicality. For mobile device users who agree with PureGear’s “smart and simple” philosophy, the best place to start is with their Signature Collection. The Signature Collection includes a variety of cell phone accessories that both protect and increase ease of use.

A perfect example from the Signature Collection is PureGear’s Smartphone Support System for the iPhone 4. The Smartphone Support System acts as a case that protects the iPhone against accidental drops and bounces, but it’s also a holster that clips onto a belt, purse, backpack or waistline. Simultaneously, the phone’s holster clip can also act as a kickstand that makes it easy to prop the phone up while using it as an alarm clock, a mobile video channel, or simply for easy access on a desk, table or nightstand.

In sum, PureGear offers a versatile line of mobile device and cell phone accessories that goes beyond merely protecting mobile devices. Any mobile device user will truly appreciate the user-friendly practicality from PureGear accessories.

The Tale of the Lost Apple iPhone Prototype Gets A Little Weirder

The next generation of iPhone that by hook or by crook disappeared in the Bay Area bar before finally resurfacing in a gizmodo story is now heading back to Apple.

The questions that are there over the adventures of the device will take a little longer amount of time to get some answers.

According to the Gizomodo article, Gray Powell who is an engineer at Apple spent some time in beer garden in Redwood. After a few beverages, he left the California water hole and forgot to bring the device with him.

After discovering the device, the patron at the California watering hole did not return it but rather took it home. They apparently had no intention of returning it and even managed to locate the Apple Engineer’s Facebook page. However, because of the delay, the phone was wiped clean, a feature that MobileMe offers in case of phone theft of loss.

The story outlines the details of Powell, including both photos and biographical information. This information was apparently taken from both Facebook and Flickr pages. The one thing that it didn’t mention is that the finder was paid $5k for finding it. That bit of information was reported by both the Times and the AP.

Apple had asked for the device to be returned and that request was being complied with. The deeper question though is that with the level of secrecy that Apple employs why exactly was the device being walked around with since the device was both unsecured and unreleased.

Apple developers in the past have been seen around town sporting new software versions on their iPhones. However, because these phones were using newer software and not showcasing new hardware mere password protection would make them secure. Discovering one of these phones in a bar would not stir too much debate.

In contrast, the iPad was stored in a blacked out room and had to be tethered to a stationary object. It was going nowhere. Developers who were ok’d to work on this device labored under extremely secure conditions.

There is some speculation that the iPhone that was discovered might be a decoy. However, one has to admit that even with a group as vigilant as Apple mistakes are bound to happen.

The Expanding Universe of Android

When Google looks into the future it looks extremely bright for their Android smartphone platform. If you don’t want to go that far you could at least say that the future looks much more bright then it did around 2 years back when the Android smartphone platform made its debut. Back then it was just one single smartphone and didn’t have much in terms of add-on application offerings.

In the keynote speech at the Google I/O conference Google was able to tout some pretty remarkable numbers:

* 100,000 brand new activations of an Android system every day
* 50,000 new purchases in the Android Market ever day

Google also made the demonstration of the new version of the Android. It looks like it’s going to be a much larger jump than the self-effacingly elevated version number. 2.2

Some of the more exciting breakthroughs that are to be found within the Android 2.2 version update are:

* Much quicker performance
* Flash support – While it’s true that Adobe Flash can sometimes be stupid and seem somewhat evil but sometimes you just have to watch a video or use some type of an interactive widget
* Backup built in

With all of the good things being said about ‘Froyo’ perhaps the biggest turn off will be that one will have to contact one’s cell phone carrier/service supplier and see if the carrier is going to be getting the upgrade. Many aren’t right away and HTC for example is stating that all cell phones shipped in 2010 will more than like get the upgrade but only those in the second half of the year.

With extended battery life, this feature should have been advertised as one of the advanced features.

Some other evidence of the healthy state of the Android is on full display just down the hall and one floor down from the keynote auditorium. There is a glass case and it is filled with 54 different tablet computers and Android phones. It allowed for the attendees to view the current and a lot of the upcoming Android phones from places like:

    * Sony
    * Samsung
    * LG
    * HTC
    * Motorola

From viewing the line up one could confidently conclude that the if there isn’t a phone to match your size and shape criteria now there soon will be – even if the hardware is not as elegant as that of the iPhones…

So with that said, will you stop asking if there is a Verizon iPhone in the future?
