All of these statistics show that along with the people, our technology is evolving. Every time a new iPhone comes out, society ask what more can possibly be done with the iPhone but creators keep finding new things. They never run out of ideas and before one iPhone is even finished, the already have ideas for the next one. It is crazy to look at pictures from the first ever iPhone and then look at the latest one and compare them. Engineers continue to impress the world and right when people think the improvements are maxed out, they come out with something more impressive.

  1. The evolution of the iPhone definitely is something a lot of people would be interested in, including myself. The background information you included with bullet points, and the connection you made to engineering were definitely great components. Seeing the prices of the varying generations was especially crazy!
