iPhone 2
Only words a habit…
Actually if you look If we understand more carefully, we will immediately find the answer. That is, iPhone 2 is iPhone 1, or in other words, iPhone 2 is the first iPhone version introduced by Steve Jobs himself to all technology enthusiasts in the world. So why is this iPhone called iPhone 2? Is it just for fun or is there some terrible secret behind it by Apple – one of the most powerful technology companies in the world?
Fortunately, that is not the case! There will be no secrets revealed, even if it is a bit ridiculous when mentioning the history of this name. Temporarily ignore this first version and come to the second iPhone version released in 2007. This version has many improvements, including increased performance design, but most importantly That is access to the 3G mobile network, which was considered a revolution at that time.
The strength of this technology compared to 2G and 2.5G technology is that it allows the transmission and reception of high quality audio and video data for both fixed and mobile subscribers. dynamic. With 3G technology, a door has truly been opened to a series of utilities including multimedia services high quality music high quality video digital television global positioning service (GPS) email video streaming and a variety of other entertainment tools.
Thanks to the success of the 3G feature on this second version, users gradually got used to calling the two generations of iPhone at that time “iPhone 2G” and “iPhone 3G”. This is also a milestone that started Apple’s unexpectedly strong development. iPhones began to sell so much that they became a real craze. And then I don’t know why or when, and the name was shortened to iPhone 2 and iPhone 3, probably just from everyday naming habits.
And with the spread of the Internet, this habit soon became something normal. that’s very familiar. It even seems that even Apple, the people who created the iPhone, including Steve Jobs, were so interested in this name that in June 2010 they launched the iPhone 4 even though it was not popular. supports 4G network and everyone seems to forget that this is only the 3rd version of the iPhone smartphone!
And iPhone 1 became iPhone 2 iPhone 2 became iPhone 3 iPhone 3 became iPhone 4 .. in such a random and interesting way! If it weren’t for the habit of calling this name, perhaps in September 2014 Apple would launch the iPhone 5/5 Plus pair instead of 6 / 6 Plus like today.
Where will the future of iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 go?
Although the launch of iPhone versions always proves Showing its powerful appeal is better than any other mobile device, but since Steve Jobs – the late president of Apple passed away, it seems that iPhone developers are trying to escape from the shadow of Apple. predecessor but has not really succeeded in continuing that success.
Typically since the iPhone 5/5S and iPhone 6/6 Plus versions When it was released, there was a lot of mixed opinion that the iPhone seemed to be stuck in creating its own identity. The recent iPhone 6/6 Plus was also criticized for “learning” from the large screen design of rival Samsung.
The future of development The development of iPhones is still open and none of us can know whether future versions will achieve as much success as in the past. The only thing we can be sure of is that the iPhone has a heroic historical development milestone that any Apple fan will feel proud to talk about.
