The iPhone is one of the world’s most iconic devices and, in the grand scheme of things, it isn’t very old. But when did it begin? Where did the idea come from?
The very first iPhone was unveiled in January 2007 at the MacWorld convention. Steve Jobs revealed what Apple had been developing for nearly 3 years and, for its time, it represented the cutting edge of technology.
The device was introduced as an iPod with a wider screen, controlled by touch instead of physical buttons. In short, it was a mobile phone and a device to communicate with the internet. At the time, Jobs told the audience that this device would “reinvent the phone”.
While revealing the design of this new device, Jobs took time out to make fun of the current smartphones on the market, ones that relied on a physical keyboard and were unwieldy to use. He showed off how simple it was to control a phone using simple touch gestures on a screen and the audience were hooked.
The iPhone 3GS was the first iPhone to receive an interim update, denoted by the S. Apple produced an upgraded 3G with a faster processor. It had a much higher resolution camera on it that could capture an astonishing (for its time) 480p video and support was included for voice controls.

4. iPhone 4

Apple broke the mold with the iPhone 4, making it the very first to have an incredible high-resolution display, known as Retina. As well as that, they gave the iPhone camera an update, making it 5 megapixel and they added in a front camera for video calling.
This was the first iPhone to receive a design change, the rounded rear panel replaced with a flat one, giving the iPhone the honor of being classed as the thinnest smartphone in the world. The phone was given a stainless steel frame and a brand new, all-singing, all dancing A4 processor, designed to help with the multitasking functions.

5. iPhone 4S

Apple changed their release cycle with the iPhone 4S, moving it to the fall rather than summer months. The iPhone 4s proved to be the best that Apple had ever released. It got a camera upgrade, to the 8 megapixel iSight camera that we know and love today, with the ability to record video at 1080p.It got a brand new processor, the A5 dual core chip and it got Siri. Siri is Apple’s very own intelligent voice assistant that changed the way we used our iPhones. With the iPhone 4S we got access to iCloud and iMessage. We got a notification center and reminders and Apple even gave is Twitter integration.The iPhone 4S was released just 9 days after the death of Steve Jobs after he lost his battle with pancreatic cancer.

8. iPhone 5s

The iPhone 5s is Apple's 7th generation iPhone.Physically the iPhone 5s looked identical to the previous year's iPhone 5, including the 4-inch 1136x640 in-cell display. But that's been true for every s-branded phone Apple has released to date. With this phone, however, there's one notable exception. The iPhone 5s not only comes in dark and light colors, space gray and silver respectively, but it comes in gold. Also, like every s-branded phone Apple has released to date, beneath a similar-looking shell beats the heart of a much-improved beast.

10. iPhone 6 Plus

The iPhone 6 Plus is Apple’s flagship phone, and one of its most popular products, period. Equipped with a 5.5″ Retina HD display, the iPhone 6 Plus boasts full 1080p HD resolution (1920 x 1080) at 401 PPI, the sharpest-looking screen on any Apple device. It’s also color-accurate, with a full sRGB color gamut and a wider viewing angle than prior screens.Due to its larger screen, the iPhone 6 Plus has the ability to display the Home screen in landscape mode for the first time. It also has the best virtual keyboard yet offered in an iPhone, making accurate typing a lot easier for people with larger hands. Apple has upgraded the 6 Plus with a second-generation 64-bit A8 chip, delivering 25% faster CPU performance and up to 50% faster graphics than the iPhone 5s. Despite the superior processing and thinner body, 6 Plus blows away other iPhones in battery life, typically running for at least a full day without requiring a recharge.Even with a big screen and improved hardware, the iPhone 6 Plus measures only 7.1mm thick, versus the iPhone 5s’s 7.5mm.

11. iPhone 6s

With the iPhone 6S, Apple is trying hard to change the perception that its new flagship is merely an iterative update to its predecessor. So much that its tagline for its new iPhones is 'the only thing that's changed is everything.' The phone brings some brand-new features such as 3D Touch and takes one of the biggest leaps in terms of camera hardware.The iPhone 6S looks exactly like the iPhone 6. It's slightly thicker and heavier but you won't really notice it. I Phone 6S comes with iOS 9, the latest version of Apple's mobile operating system. Interestingly, some features of the OS are limited to the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus - 3D Touch and Live Photos.

The iPhone 7 includes a number of significant enhancements, it does so in a form factor that is nearly identical to earlier iPhone 6 and iPhone 6S devices.One of the key new features in the iPhone 7 involves a switch from the existing headphone jack to the smartphone's existing Lightning connector for headphone use, which enables the iPhone 7 to be the thinnest iPhone yet — as well as make the phone more water resistant.In addition to the Lightning-based EarPods, Apple will also be releasing wireless Apple AirPods as on option for iPhone 7 users.

15. iPhone 7 Plus

The i Phone 7 Plus is a deeply unusual device. It is full of aggressive breaks from convention while wrapped in case that look almost exactly like its two direct predecessors. Even that continuity of design is a break from convention; after almost a decade of Apple’s steady two-year iPhone update pattern, merely retaining the same design for a third straight year plays against expectations. The dual cameras on the iPhone 7 Plus promise to usher in a new era in mobile photography. The iconic iPhone home button is no longer a physical button, but instead a sophisticated ballet of pressure sensors and haptic vibration motors that simulate the feel of a button. The new A10 Fusion processor blends two high-power cores that rival laptop performance with two low-power cores that combine with a much larger battery to extend run time by up to two hours. And, yes, Apple has removed the headphone jack.
