Did you know when the first iPhone was created? The first generation of the iPhone was announced on January 9, 2007, and was distributed in the United States on June 27, 2007. This model was created and released by Steve Jobs( the CEO of Apple). Since 2007, Apple has released a new iPhone and IOS update once every single year. The first iPhone was approximately $199. Each year Apple iPhone grew in popularity and became very normal for people to use. The iPhone also got better and better each year, there were multiple upgrades, and eventually, the iPhone started to be more efficient.
But with those benefits, the price of the iPhone kept growing as well. The newest iPhone in 2024 cost roughly $1,199.00 at the Apple store. According to Exploding Topics, In the US, 57.93% of the population uses and likes iPhones and Apple products. The rest use Samsung or other types such as Androids. Most people like their Apple phones and wouldn't switch to a different brand. The iPhone 14 Max is the most popular phone right now, and the most used iPhone, even though the 15 and 15 Pro Max just came out. The 15 has been said to break easily and not be very durable.
In my opinion, I like my iPhone, it is very reliable. I have the iPhone 13 pro max and I have a great amount of storage for all of my pictures and videos, and I think it's easy for me to use on a day-to-day basis. I've never had a problem with my iPhone. I will say it was pricey, but I think the quality is worth it. That is the only downside to Apple iPhones, they’re very expensive and not easy to get if you don’t have a good phone plan.

Good topic choice and summary Clara! You didn't reply to any student comments which is worth 30 points.
I have the iPhone 13 and I really like it. I used to have the SE, which wasn't bad but it is obviously not better than the 13. Yes they can be expensive depending on which one it is, but they have a reason why they are expensive. They are worth it.
I have an iPhone 13 Pro and I love it. I used to have iPhone 11 Pro in gold and I preferred the gold over the black. I agree iPhones are a little pricey but worth it they are super reliable and in certain cases durable. The updates definitely give the phone new looks and improvements that everyone loves.
I have the iPhone 14 but I used to have the Google Pixel 3. I do think iPhones are expensive but it makes sense because of the popularity of it. I think phones are worth it if you use them correctly but other types of phones could also be worth it.
I have an Iphone 7 which is kind of old. I do think Iphones are a little expensive but it doesn't really surprise me at all. I do think they are worth it because they are good quality and can hold up for some good time.
I have a Google phone because my family doesn't use Apple products. I think that Iphones are very expensive and Apple makes them this expensive because they know people will pay for them. Phones are worth it because they are a part of our society now.
I have an iphone 14 pro. I do think iphones are expenisve but they're defiently worth it. They can offer so many things and the performence of them are very good. I think they are worth it because we use them every day and they can help with saftey.
I have an iPhone 13. iPhones can be expensive, but I don 't think they are really because of what they offer and the performance of one of them. I think it's worth having an iPhone because of how much we use them each day and for some safety reasons.
I currently have the iPhone 13. I do think iPhones are getting more and more expensive compared to how much they used to cost, but that seems to be the same for most phones. I think it is worth it because it has great features, but I haven't had another type of phone very recently so I wouldn't know what it's like compared to other phones.
I have an iPhone 11. Yes, they are very expensive. I think that iPhone are kind of worth it because you can do a lot of stuff on an iPhone.
