Original Apple iPhone
Steve Jobs took the world by surprise with the announcement of a mysterious device that for the first time combined an iPod music player, an Internet communication device and a traditional phone: the original Apple iPhone. -
Apple iPhone 3GS
The S in 3GS stood for speed, as the phone was more powerful, zippier, but its most important novelty was probably that it was the first iPhone that could record video. The iPhone 3GS' new 3-megapixel camera debuted a video mode and was able to record videos at VGA (480p) resolution. -
Apple iPhone 4
The iPhone 4 was the first major redesign within the iPhone series, introducing a stunning for the time glass construction with a metal frame. It was also the first iPhone to come with a 'Retina' display, a new screen resolution of 640 x 960 pixels that was so sharp. -
Apple iPhone 5
The iPhone 5 marked a monumental moment for Apple: it was the first phone with a chip that Apple itself made. The iPhone 5 impressed with its design and speed improvements. The new iPhone 5 design was also thinner and lighter. -
Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus
Finally, Apple showed an iPhone with a bigger screen. In fact, there was two of them: the 4.7 inch iPhone 6, and the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus also introduced a much better camera with faster auto-focusing and support for continuous auto-focus in videos. -
Apple iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus
The iPhone innovation that year was shared between the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus: the glass back, the wireless charging, the Apple A11 Bionic chip with its neural engine, as well as the new for the time 64GB and 256GB storage options. -
Apple iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max
The main change was in the camera where all three iPhones received a brand new ultra-wide camera that allowed users to capture incredible landscape photos, as well as shoot in tight spaces. -
Apple iPhone 14, 14 Plus, 14 Pro, and 14 Pro Max
For the first time ever, the non-Pro versions stick with mostly the same Apple A15 processor used in the previous generation, while only the Pro editions get the new Apple A16 chip. The other big news is that the Pro models get an upgrade to a larger-sensor, 48MP main camera. Cinematic Mode now works in 4K too, and supports both 24fps and 30fps.
