10 Year Anniversary of the Most Coveted Gift: Happy Bday, Iphone!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Casper Libero chapter.

I dare say that, in the world, there aren’t people who have never heard about iPhone or apple store.  If there is, those are certainly few. The brand and especially the telephone handsets marketed by it have had an incredible popularity in some years.

In this year of 2017, however, the celebration of the brand that exists for some decades is different: iPhone is completing 10 years. With 15 models released so far, the great expectation is to know how the new model of iPhone (iPhone 8), which should be introduced to the public in a few days, will be.

It is worth remembering that since Apple started to sell this line of handsets, the sales of competitors have decreased greatly, even with the high costs of iPhones. There are those who say that we can have two certainties about Apple products: they are very innovative, but also very expensive.

Having iPhone or not, the question is that the last decade was marked by technological advances in electronic devices. Thus, cell phones began to perform specific functions, becoming almost the men’s “best friend”. It’s kind of impossible to go away for your tasks without your “buddy”, once it has camera, calendar, instant messaging applications, among other important things in each person’s personal routines.

The iPhones follow this technological development at all times. For this reason, new models are always launched. These are capable of ending the validity deadlines of the oldest ones.

The Android vs. Apple dispute is another milestone in the present day.  Apple has their defenders, customers who do not abandon their brand and their cell phones for nothing. On the other hand, there are those who prefer the operating system of the androids, even without all the charm of the most famous brand.

The 10 year old birthday ”boy”, curiously, ends up serving as a gift on several occasions and being a dream of consumption of thousands of people, although it has suffered several criticisms regarding its price and the short duration of its battery.

In this party that will happen in a few days and will feature the  release of the new iPhone 8,  the presence of several fans and curious of the brand, which end up being “addicted” to the products sold by it, is confirmed. The expectation is big! Everybody wants to know if the celebration and innovation of new iphone are going to be sufficient to keep Apple in the top of the market leadership, and if the battery of the new model will last the time required for the party to be fully registered.

Student of Journalism and law, curious, extroverted and happy. Do what you love then success will be a consequence. :)
