The iPhone 4S also comes with a few more subtle design tweaks that differentiate it from the iPhone 4, and you might miss some of those changes if you didn't have an iPhone 4 and 4S sitting side-by-side for a comparison. Antenna Improvements Phil Schiller actually did talk about the new antenna in the iPhone 4S during the most recent Apple event, but the changes to the iPhone's antenna aren't really obvious until you have the handset in your hands. One of those changes literally requires you to hold the device in your hand before you'll see it: the dreaded "death grip" of the iPhone 4 is gone in the iPhone 4S. A well-known and widely (over)publicized shortcoming of the iPhone 4's antenna design caused it to attenuate wireless signals when held a certain way. Bridging the black gap on the lower left side of the iPhone's antenna band would cause signal strength to drop for some users.

  • Jay Chiat Award 2015
    iPhone 5S ‘You Are More Powerful Than You Think’ The Jay Chiat Awards 2015 Summary The goal of ‘iPhone 5S : You’re More Powerful Than You Think’ campaign was to reframe the smartphone category conversation and communicate the iPhone difference to consumers in a way that went far deeper than tech-and-specs. In the 12 markets we advertised at that time (U.S., Canada, Australia, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, China, Japan, Korea), iPhone was by far the most admired smartphone in market. However on the surface, to many smartphone shoppers, iPhone didn’t look that different from its less expensive competitors. But that didn’t mean they were better. In other words, none of these “facts” told the full story. However similar these features and specs might appear to consumers on paper, in reality they were often nowhere near iPhone’s level of performance. Our mission was clear: to use Apple’s cornerstone product to make consumers around the world feel the difference, and to eliminate all doubt around a very important question: Why iPhone? The answer ….. it actually laid in the behaviors of our core users. A Successful Launch “The new iPhone 5S is a delight. On September 20, 2013, Apple released it newest flagship smartphone, the iPhone 5S, Its hardware and software make it featuring a powerful new 64-bit processor, a significant upgrade to its camera, and a the best smartphone on the market.” revolutionary fingerprint recognition system called Touch ID. iPhone 5S and 5C sold over nine million units in the first three days, which sets a record for first weekend smartphone sales[1].

  • How the Iphone Works From
    How the iPhone Works from http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/iphone2.htm Multi-touch Systems To allow people to use touch commands that require multiple fingers, the iPhone uses a new arrangement of existing technology. Its touch-sensitive screen includes a layer of capacitive material, just like many other touch-screens. However, the iPhone's capacitors are arranged according to a coordinate system. Its circuitry can sense changes at each point along the grid. In other words, every point on the grid generates its own signal when touched and relays that signal to the iPhone's processor. This allows the phone to determine the location and movement of simultaneous touches in multiple locations. Because of its reliance on this capacitive material, the iPhone works only if you touch it with your fingertip -- it won't work if you use a stylus or wear non-conductive gloves. A mutual capacitance touch-screen contains a grid of sensing lines and driving lines to determine where the user is touching. A self capacitance screen contains sensing circuits and electrodes to determine where a user is touching. The iPhone's screen detects touch through one of two methods: Mutual capacitance or self capacitance. In mutual capacitance, the capacitive circuitry requires two distinct layers of material. One houses driving lines, which carry current, and the other houses sensing lines, which detect the current at nodes. Self capacitance uses one layer of individual electrodes connected with capacitance-sensing circuitry. Both of these possible setups send touch data as electrical impulses. In the next section, we'll take a look at exactly what happens.

  • Apple's Iphone Launch: a Case Study in Effective Marketing
    Apple's iPhone Launch: A Case Study in Effective Marketing Kyle Mickalowski, Augustana College Mark Mickelson, Augustana College Jaciel Keltgen, Augustana College ABSTRACT When CEO Steve Jobs announced in January 2007 that Apple would be releasing a revolutionary iPhone five months hence, consumers waited with bated breath for a phone that would deliver all the features of their iPods as well as a smart phone. Anticipation grew, just as Jobs knew it would, as June approached. The launch would become one of the most heralded technological product splashes Apple, known for its masterful media build-up, had ever planned. How the iPhone was developed, priced, promoted, and distributed is lesson for marketers around the world. Apple investors were pretty happy with the outcome as well. INTRODUCTION One year after Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs announced the company’s industry-changing iPhone on January 9, 2007, at the Macworld convention in San Francisco, the share price of Apple’s stock has more than doubled to a January 9, 2008, value of $179.40 (See Chart 1). This stock price incorporates all of Apple’s business, but a large part of the rise in value can be attributed to the launch of the cutting-edge iPhone, of which four million have already been sold through mid-January 2008 (Carew, 2008). Based on this simple observation of the stock price, the iPhone can so far be declared a success, at least from a shareholder standpoint. This paper will explore both the pre- and post-launch activities surrounding the iPhone to explain why it was such a success for the stockholders and why Apple’s reputation for unparalleled marketing success is deserved.
