Before the iPhone came along in 2007 and changed the way in which we use mobile devices, touchscreen smartphones were very different to what we have today. They were big, clunky and slow; it was hard to find and install applications for them; and every one of them came with a damn stylus that was either lost or broken within the first six months.
Things are completely different now, though, thanks to Apple’s smartphone. But it took a long time for us to get here. This awesome video from CNET UK offers an animated journey through the history of the iPhone and how Apple’s revolutionary device was born.
CNET UK says:
The iPhone might be at the cutting edge of technology but it took a long time and many innovations to get there, take a trip through history and explore the people and technology that contributed to the iPhone becoming what it is today.

Can’t read the info… Transitions are fast. I have to pause every 5 seconds…
I fucking hate when you guys post videos in FLASH format…you realize this is a MAC site right, Bell? Don’t be like John Brownlee.
Nice, agree that the transitions are too fast though, seems silly to have all that interesting info on there and not be able to read it.
