The iPhone is Apple's smartphone and has been the defining product of the company ever since its unveiling on January 9, 2007. What began as an uncompromising revolution with a multi-touch display and no physical keyboard is today a broad model family: from the standard iPhone to the slim iPhone Air and the Pro lineup with triple camera and ProMotion display, an entry-level e model and additional form factors in Apple's pipeline. The lineup is powered by Apple's own A chips, the iOS operating system, a tightly integrated ecosystem with AirPods, Apple Watch, Mac, iPad and Vision Pro – plus a dense network of iCloud, Apple Account, Apple Pay, Find My and Apple Intelligence.
What comes together under this tag on apfelpatient.de covers the entire iPhone universe: reviews and hands-on reports, tips and tricks for iOS and hardware, repair and battery topics, comparisons between generations, all rumors and overviews around the next iPhone generation, quarterly results and supply chain background, regulatory topics such as the DMA in Europe, the annual fall keynote, and strategic perspectives on pricing, market share and Apple's long-term iPhone strategy.
