Apple iPhones – Future Design Trends

Apple Inc. created something of a revolution in 2007 when it introduced the original iPhone in 2007! Technology had the world under its tight grip like never before and all information about devices was absorbed by a global audience hungry for more. In an instant sweep, the iPhone almost made all other smartphones obsolete and sent competitors scrambling to innovate their own products. The prices of conventional iPhone 3G and 3GS mobile phones fell and the iPhone 4 and 4s brought us Retina and Siri. Later, Apple introduced a faster and taller smartphone, the iPhone 5; iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s literally put the future in our hands! The iPhone 6 series was equipped with new hardware and introduced a newer and more responsive way of smartphone interaction with 3D Touch.

Apple’s goal of obtaining a monopoly of the mobile phone and smartphone market has been achieved, albeit with some pitfalls and some corporate battles related to patents and designs with competitors. But the sheer symmetry and functionality of an iPhone is unmatched, and the millions of happy users attest to this indisputable fact. With each new design and improved versatility and performance, Apple is getting more people to buy phones faster. An iPhone as the first mobile device is a source of pride for thousands of people around the world.

In recent news, Apple is unlikely to make any major changes to the design of its next iPhone product. The corporate announcement said the tech giant is breaking away from the pattern of reviewing the iPhone’s design every two years; only subtle changes are expected for the fall release of its latest model. Confirmed analyst reports say the new phones will keep the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch screens, a throwback to the larger-screen models introduced by the company in 2014.

iPhones have not been without controversy and drawbacks. The 16GB capacity of iPhones has received a lot of criticism from users who feel it is a rip-off as nearly 7GB is consumed for software and apps. Not allowing users to remove custom apps didn’t help Apple’s image either. It appears that the company has taken note of the feedback from loyal customers and is ditching the lower capacity devices; the next iPhone 7 range will start with 32GB storage tiers.

Lack of storage has been the most common customer issue and Apple makes sure this issue is resolved as soon as possible. In all probability, Apple’s iOS software is very likely to exceed 16 GB and therefore producing phones with this capacity will not improve Apple’s corporate image and brand. In all likelihood, the 64GB option will also be shelved and future devices may offer 128GB or even 256GB! This fact makes a lot of sense in light of the fact that the company is considering buying a high-capacity flash for its iPad Pro.
