CAIRO – 3 July 2017: Last week was a huge week for Apple Inc., with the multinational technology company celebrating the 10th anniversary of the launch of the original iPhone on June 29, 2017.

Since its release ten years ago priced at $499 for 4GB, the iconic phone is still changing the world through its technology. For example, the iPhone’s classic touch screen made people forget about the need for a real keyboard and touch screens soon became a must-have on every smartphone. Innovations in successive iterations of the classic iPhone inspired new generations of smartphones and software designs.

The company did not hold a public celebration, however the internet was filled with posts and pictures of the original iPhone as its users celebrated their favorite cell phone. In July 2016, Apple announced that iPhone sales had reached the 1 billion mark worldwide.
