iPhone is a Chinese brand of leather products and none of them are phones, which is why Apple lost a legal battle against them and has to share the trademark for the word “iPhone” with them.

Two teams competed to design the iPhone. Dial based hardware vs. touch screen. It wasn’t until the iPhone reveal event, that on stage, Jobs ruthlessly made it clear which team won. He showed the world the power of touch, by deleting the contact of loosing designer Tony Faddell with a single tap.

The first public call made from an iPhone was made by Steve Jobs. He called a Starbucks and ordered 4,000 lattes; then said ‘just kidding’ and hung up.

In 2011, a man in China sold his kidney to buy a iPhone 4 and iPad 2 when he was 17. Now he is bedridden for life.
All of us want to take that perfect photo with our iPhone, especially those super-sharp portraits with the blurred background where your subject appears to be professionally shot. For all you budding photographers out there, here are three easy ways to make your photo skills the envy of your friends (even if you don’t own a new phone with a great camera).

This is the simplest method. If you have an iPhone X, XR, XS, or XS Max or an iPhone 7 or 8 Plus, you should have a Portrait Mode feature.
Open up your handy camera app, swipe until you find “Portrait” and simply position your subject within the limits of the lens. It will tell you if you need to move closer or farther away. When the words “Natural Light” appear, then you are set to snap at your heart’s content!

Place your subject within a few feet of the lens. A yellow box should appear, tap it and the lens will be forced to focus on the object, leaving the background out of focus. Just move closer or farther away until the background fully blurs. You can also tap an object and hold on it to force the camera to lock into focus on it. Then it will keep the same focus, even if you or your subject moves.
Sometimes, older iPhones just aren’t capable of capturing that desired blur. Therefore, we recommend trying out a third-party app that performs this feature. There are free apps available (like Blur Photo Background) or paid ones with better features (like AfterFocus). Either way, try some out!

Apple recently released information about new iOS 13, and it looks awesome. According to Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering, “iOS 13 brings new capabilities to the apps you use every day, with rich updates to Photos and Maps, and privacy-protecting features like Sign In with Apple, all while delivering faster performance.”
But this is only a small fraction of the capabilities! One enhancement that has excited users is the ability to share music. But forget AirDrop for a minute.

iPhone users will be allowed to share music currently playing on their devices. All you need is an iPhone or iPad, and AirPods. The iOS 13 will sync two sets of AirPods, allowing your friend to jam out with you. This even includes sharing sound for videos and YouTube.
Not convinced? Think about that one time you wanted to watch a movie on your iPhone with someone, but you were in a public place. Turning up the volume would only be a nuisance. But with this upgrade, you can snuggle up—or whatever— through your own set of earphones. Genius!
Lifehacker did a spectacular job breaking this down. There are two options they mention to get you on the go.

The update goes live in the fall, which is right around the corner, so go snag your friend or family an extra set of AirPods.

The first “iPhone” was actually released in 1998 by a company called Infogear, a good nine years before Steve Jobs introduced Apple’s iPhone. Infogear was subsequently acquired by Cisco which then got into a trademark battle with Apple in 2007 over the name. The two companies eventually settled.
The mobile game “Send Me to Heaven” involves throwing your phone as high in the air as you can. The creator said he made it with the hope of destroying as many iPhones as possible, but Apple banned it from the App Store.
A woman rolled up to a store during an iPhone launch with a plan to buy out the entire store stock of iPhones and post the phones on Ebay. She bought her way to the front of the line for $800 … only to be told later about the “one phone per customer” rule.
