Apple Information
On the 1st of April, 1976 Steve jobs came out with Apple products. He created computer hardware, software and electronics. Steve Jobs had some help from Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne. Apple products can now be found worldwide. The first product was an Apple I Computer. They were about to put it out on the market but then Steve Wozniak was working with Hewlett-Packard a computer company the paper said he could work there. Apple meets our wants sometimes by if we want a bigger phone they created the iPhone plus. And then a lot of people liked the style of the phone 5 so Apple created the iPhone SE. Apple products do not meet our needs we have to have because a phone, laptop, desktop, or watch is not necessary to have. you need water, food, and shelter. not electronics. Now Apple has had some competition with Samsung they made a waterproof phone. And Samsung also has a 7 out then Apple recently put out the 7. There is a lot more competition but that is 2 of the main ones.
Other Information
Apple recently came out with IOS 10. It was apparently one of the biggest updates yet for them. Every so often they come out with new little things for the iPhone, iPad, etc. Apple adds in a lot of little features for us the consumer and them the suppler. Also iPhone 7 and 7+ was just released a few nights ago. And there was no headphone jack? They are now called ear pods i believe. Plus that means you will never tangle up your headphones again. Thats probably the good part, the bad part is that means you will probably lose them even more now that they are so little. As for the Apple Watch was introduced on September 9, 2014. and it was released on April 24, 2015 The wearable device consists of fitness and health tracking, its features are very similar to the fit bit. Also in October of 2015 there was the new iPhone SE. It was the same size as an iPhone 5/5s but it came in gold and rose gold with all the same features as an regular iPhone 6 but in the size and shape as a 5/5s.
