Apple iPhone

iPhone - The Original iPhone

Since 2007, the release of iPhone has been hailed as the monumental event in the history of smartphones. The success of this first generation model is clearly evident as it has inspired several successors that bear its name and others that seek to emulate its iconic innovations. True to its marketing slogan, the first iPhone is indeed the beginning of many exciting innovations to come.

Dare To Be Different

When Steve Jobs was trying to experiment with the concept of having your own computer in the size that is smaller than a tablet and it was supposed to be easily accessible at your fingertips without the need of using mouse and keyboard or even stylus. Eventually, he decided such technology could be adopted on a mobile phone. During entering a joint development with Cingular Wireless, Apple has been given the freedom and liberty in developing every aspect of iPhone. This allowed Apple to unleash every creative idea that it can put without much interference. As a result, the iPhone was the outcome of a vision that had been fully realized and it gave birth to an unique form of mobile phone type that bore three distinct titles: a revolutionary mobile phone, a breakthrough Internet communicator and widescreen iPod with touch controls. In fact, these were the words used by Steve Jobs himself.

Redesigning What It Means To Be A Phone

Being described as both beautiful and breakthrough at the same time by Walt Mossberg of The Wall Street Journal, the iPhone has been greeted with much anticipation even before it was first released. Basically, the iPhone enables you to do a lot of tasks that are not normally possible when using a phone. The possibilities are truly endless when you can use it to check your e-mail, browse through sites, surf the Internet and other tasks that are associated with a personal computer.

Why is the iPhone a Top-of-the-List Smartphone Brand

iPhones have been the smartphone of choice for many smartphone consumers around the world. Whenever the latest iPhone is unveiled, it will cause a buzz among netizens and the public. iPhones have become immensely popular amongst Singaporean smartphone aficionados today for a multitude of reasons.

Efficient Real-World Speed

iPhones are known for setting the benchmark when it comes to performance speeds. iPhones have proven their worth in various speed tests done by experts, as the results show that they constantly outperform any other model in the market. iPhones can run smoothly even while multitasking, being able to handle demanding tasks without slowing down. Even having multiple background apps do not slow down the device’s performance.

iPhone Apps Are More Abundant and Better Looking

The two biggest mobile app stores belong to Android and Apple. Although most of the popular apps are featured on both platforms, many tops games and apps will usually be made available on iPhone first. Moreover, there are more apps that are specially made for Apple only compared to specially-designed apps for Android. The apps tend to have a better design on iPhones compared to the same ones on other devices.

Fast iPhone Updates

Another benefit of using an iPhone is that users can receive iOS updates frequently, no matter which carrier you are using. According to statistics released by the App Store in February 2017, about 80 percent of iOS devices were running iOS 10, the latest version of Apple’s operating software in mere five months after its release. Moreover, you need not change to the latest iPhone to receive updates from Apple as the company delivers updates even to devices that are three years old. For example, the iPhone 4s still receives iOS 9 support, whereas the latest-and-greatest iOS 10 is available for the iPhone 5.

No Bloatware

Another reason why the iPhone is much loved is that the iPhone does not have any bloatware. Bloatware will take up a considerable amount of storage, reducing your ability to install and download your favourite apps. An excessive amount of bloatware will also cause the device to slow down. Thankfully, unlike other phones, you will not find a single carrier software pre-loaded on an iPhone. Although Apple still includes some apps that you might not use or need, it is significantly fewer than other manufacturers. Furthermore, the iOS 10 enables users to disable built-in apps that you are not using, which is the second best option since these apps cannot be deleted from the device.

iPhones have Higher Resell Value

When most people are thinking of upgrading or replacing their current smartphone, they will sell off the older model. If you sell a one-year-old or two-year-old smartphone, you often receive much less than the amount you paid. However, when you sell an iPhone, you will notice that the resell value will be much higher than other models.
