How Did Apple Changed The World

When phones first came out there was a slew of options. You could choses from any company and get a good flip phone or a regular phone that does calls and texts. However in 2007 that all changed when apple was the first company to produce a smartphone. This isn't the first time Apple produced something that changed the world. In 1976 apple came out with the first computer that could be bought to normal households, and In early 1999, apple wrapped its new line of iMac computers in coloured plastic panels and introducing them in a range of five fruity "flavours"--grape, tangerine, strawberry, blueberry and lime.(George) People went crazy over it and the love for apple has been crazy ever since. This cultural shift towards Apple shows that

So how is it that even thought with other options on the market Apple seems to always be the go to? Apple isn't worried about the competition. All because the companies are realistically worlds apart in branding. Apple is known worldwide and known to be a good product. Also Apple buys samsung's hardware that makes up most of their own products. For example they buy the chip that goes into an iPod from samsung. Another thing is that apple will design objects and software but make samsung make it. Even though Samsung makes all of this technology they are not allowed to use any of it for their own products(LaPedus).

Almost every year for three decades apple has produced a device that gained a following to it. People compare the coming of Apple to Gutenberg's invention of the printing press. Now when the printing press came out for this first time in the 1440s it forever changed how life would be. Things would be able to spread around and words would be put to paper. The comparison between the two shows that the idea of Apple’s industry changed the world forever. We now have everything at our fingertips. With this carries the internet, social media and a way to communicate with someone in seconds without actually hearing their voice. Our world (at least in most countries) revolve around this. Apple helps provided it all with the computers, the phone, ipods and ipads. If we didn't have apple the culture behind social media and the instant knowing of everything may not be so relevant. That culture is largely what makes our own culture. If apple was never created we would have a missing gap in our culture. Apple largely made us how we are today, and how we function as a society.
