iphone

After being with another company for two years, I changed my service and came to Verizon. One would say that I “downgraded” because my previous phone was the iPhone 12 Pro Max & I chose the regular 13. There are a couple camera features that I don’t have now coming from the Pro line, but truthfully I don’t have any regrets. I enjoy the smaller size & its sooo lightweight compared to the Pro Max. It takes great pics and I’m not seeing any glitching with it. I’m having more battery time because once I downloaded iOS 15 on the PM, it drained the battery. Not with this phone though. My only slight con would be, I’m not seeing any 5G, and I live in a town that’s supposedly 5G supported. My last company, I had 5G all the time, but the flip side to this and the reason why I’m not too worried is I use my WiFi most times anyway (I work from home), so it’s not that huge of a deal to me. However, for the phone itself, I have 0 complaints and I thought I would coming from the pro line. I’m very content with this phone & I’ll be rocking with it for a year or two. The pink color is pink enough for me, although others don’t seem to like it. Overall, I’m quite satisfied with my purchase.Less khlaskjdlo ASNDM — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.70.130.29 (talk) 07:27, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

"Initial development" opening sentence

Can someone review the opening sentence in the "Initial Development" section? This is nonsensical to me. --ZimZalaBim ^talk 03:01, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Split

This article frankly has a ton of cruft, and should likely be split off into the current article (with a lesser focus on early history) and a new article called Development of the iPhone, since so many articles and books have been written about that specific topic, including by the iPhone's creators. Ken Kocienda's book would be a good start; the keyboard's developent could take up a whole section. Same with processor choice (x86 vs ARM), the carriers giving Apple more freedom than they gave any other handset manufacturer at the time, etc. A plenty notable topic on its own, I just don't have the time to write it myself.

The lead betrays this problem by reframing the article title as The history of the iPhone development (meh).

I also think Wikipedia in general is lacking in "development of" articles that would be of interest to many readers, possibly due to overly harsh interpretations of WP:NOTABILITY. DFlhb (talk) 16:36, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

Genesis of iphone section needs fixing

Whoever wrote that section either failed english in high school or was written by a non-native english speaker. Can someone please edit that section to be grammatically correct or just delete it entirely? 2.26.40.69 (talk) 17:19, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

I think it's best to delete it entirely. It (poorly) paraphrases information that is covered in what is otherwise a concise and easily-navigable article. Thoughts? Glad Tidings from New York (talk) 23:05, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

It was since properly rewritten; and I think it's noteworthy, so I support keeping. DFlhb (talk) 20:02, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Agreed. Glad Tidings from New York (talk) 00:55, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

Incorrect years in first paragraph

It’s stated that the development of the iPhone began in the early 3000s, and that the first iPhone was released in 2023. That is clearly incorrect information. 205.185.107.47 (talk) 03:41, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

It's been fixed. Guy Harris (talk) 21:44, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
