Apple as a company has undergone multiple iteration of growth right from early 70s’ where the company was first of its kind to offer hardware and software of its own. Though Macintosh computers do not rule the internet, people often praise these products for clarity, innovation and great user experience. Right from that stage Apple is known for great technology products that are targeted towards elite customers at premium price tag.
Before 2000:
Before 2000 Apple has wide range of problems mostly that are leadership issues. Steve Jobs, veteran founder was asked to step down from Apple and Apple was close to file bankruptcy. Though all the initial values of the company were intact, people were not able to find innovation in terms of new products and technology. This slowed down the company once known for its amazing technology and innovation in product experience.

As you would know Steve Jobs, the famous CEO and iconic figure of Apple and Tech industry resigned from Apple due to health reasons. Then after a month or so, he died due to the illness. For the past one week, the tech world has been mourning the loss of Steve Jobs.
Certainly he was a visionary and driving force for Apple. He drove his competitors to think beyond what it is today and strived hard to make the customers happy.
Given that Steve has passed away and there were recent speculation of iPhone 4S, we thought it would be better to talk about post Steve Jobs era and iPhone 4S.
Post Steve Jobs era:
For many of you who had computers in 1970s’ and 80s’ you would know what Steve Jobs has done to the tech and computer industry. He has revolutionized with his unique thinking skills and managing a large format business. He raced away competition by coming up with something new in the industry. Ultimately he was fired from Apple due to the internal conflict that happened in Apple.
After his second coming, Steve revolutionized the music industry and then the phone and then the tablet. He set new standards in everything that he saw as needs for end users. He also had a famous iconic way of attracting people in the technology world.
Now, there is a huge burden that is being laid in Tim Cook’s shoulders. It is very difficult to replace Steve Jobs from the charisma standpoint, but he has to continue to invent products to be the lead in technology world.
iPhone 4S:
iPhone 4S launch was the first of its kind for Tim Cook after he has taken charge as Chief Executive Officer. People were expecting iPhone 5 with considerable amount of change in UI and design. On a contrary to that, they were able to come up with additional features like voice recognition and more powerful camera.
Though there was initial upset from the customers end, Mashable.com reported that iPhone 4S pre-order has been sold off. This means people has ordered more than 200,000 iPhone 4S after the launch event. This is quite amazing and great given that there are new phones that are being unveiled by Samsung and Google.
Though iPhone 4S may not be the favorite product, people might still buy it out of curiosity. Apple should set long term innovation goals and has to come up with more new amazing cool products that people would love and purchase over and over again.
Leaked iPhone 5 Features Leaked iPhone 5 Features
It always happens when Apple tries to release the next version of their famous iPhone or the iPad. People start writing about features that might be there on the phone and few try to sneak information from vendors of iPhone. However it is almost certain that Apple might release a new phone in September. This new has got quite a bit visibility that there are lot of people trying to sell their iPhone 4 on eBay and are getting ready to buy iPhone 5.
What features could be in iPhone 5?
There are lots of rumors in the internet that are talking about how iPhone 5 will be and we also see lot of pictures floating around. This post is a collection of such features that were leaked from various resources at various point of time.
Voice Recognition:
It seems that iPhone 5 will have voice recognition technology embedded into it. These were pictures released stating that this new phone will have this technology for sure. Now how could possible voice recognition be so super cool feature for iPhone 5? The first great benefit from this is texting SMS. Now the user has to type from a really small keyword of iPhone 5. With this software the user can simply speak and it will automatically get converted to SMS. Now the same rule applies for e-mails. Forget typing the long e-mail with the keyboard. Talk without even thinking and gets it converted into text right away. It seems like this technology is powered by Nuance, a speech recognition technology leader. Here is a leaked picture of this feature set up.
IOS 5 and iCloud:
Now, this would be a simple guess. Apple released iOS and iCloud sometimes back and one might be sure that iPhone 5 will have them incorporated. Now what is the big deal with this? ICloud is rumored to be the next big thing in the industry. It will allow any user to have their files on cloud and allow them to access it instantly. Now one might wonder how this could help them. With the inbuilt 3G connection in iPhone this can be the most desirable feature. The better part is now one can synch their data in iCloud, which is really appreciable. Previously a user has to use iTunes to do this and one has to accept that this is a painful and laborious process.
8 MP Camera:
Apple has a big history and rival when it comes to camera. It was the first company to incorporate higher end camera on their smart phones and this took a hit on small companies that were specializing in camera business. Sometimes back, there was a leaked picture that was taken in Apple office. It was rumored to be taken from iPhone 5. There was various news related to this.
NFC payment:
NFC stands for Near Field Communication. It is a chip that will be placed in a phone that will facilitate on the go mobile payments. Google’s Nexus phone has this feature and iPhone may have implemented this. As a matter of fact, NFC payments are going to be next generation phones.
Be it whatever the rumors are Apple try to keep secrets on their products very well. It would be surprising if we do not see any of these features and Apple may have some other surprise for the user. We will have to wait and see how Apple’s iPhone is going to perform in the market.
