Blog #6 What I learned Technology


I'm always amazed at how far technology has progressed over time. The iPhone, I feel, was one of the most significant breakthroughs. To me, the evolution of telephone usage is mind-boggling. From no buttons to touch screens, we've come a long way. The telephone, in my opinion, was the most significant technological advancement.

How it started:

 Steve Job co founded Apple with Steve Wozniak in 1976. Little did they know this company would change the world of technology. The iPhone was the first smartphone with built-in functions. When the Iphone was ready it was priced at $499 and $599, for 4GB and 8GB models. Apple made a victory after they sold 1.39 million iPhones in after their first launch in 2007. 

What has changed

Since this device was first released, a lot has changed. There was an introduction of a new mode of communication. Before the iPhone, smartphones did not have the distinguishing functions that they do now. Consider FaceTime. On your phone, you may now see anybody you want to talk to. Jobs were created, and the development and market for cellphones were transformed. Apple currently has over 34 iPhone models and continues to release new ones.


Is there a problem?

Yes, this invention has improved technology and communication, and it is gradually changing our life. Generation Z was born into the world of the iPhone, and they were the first to grasp its significance. Despite the fact that they were aware of them, no one had any control over how or when they were used. Iphone addiction has progressed to the point that it is causing sadness and other mental health difficulties. Yes, technological advancements bring numerous benefits, but they can also bring drawbacks.
