1. Apple iPhone 

Apple was the first company that managed to put an incredibly powerful computer in the hands of people around the world. They did that when they launched their first iPhone in 2007. After that, they kept improving their gadgets and made them the most desirable phones that ever existed.

Even though smartphones were already a thing when Steve Jobs presented the first iPhone, there is something different about this popular gadget. This device introduced users into a new era of touchscreen displays, ingenious software, and its mobile app store.

The flat-screen quickly replaced the chunky phones that had a lot of big, static buttons. The iPhone brought to us the possibility to take great photos with our smartphones and it completely changed the way we communicate, shop, work, and even play games.

2. Sony Trinitron

Edward R. Murrow was a famous journalist who stated that television is nothing else but “lights in a box”. Given the fact that a lot of colored TVs started to appear around that time, a new device was launched in 1968 by the Sony brand.

Sony Trinitron was a device that connected what at the moment had been three different electron guns. This gadget was the first TV adapter that won an Emmy award. Over the next decades, Sony managed to sell more than 100 million Trinitrons all over the world.

…Can we say that Sony Trinitron was the “father” of today’s TV? 

3. Apple Macintosh

”Will Big Blue dominate the entire computer industry? The entire information age? Was George Orwell right about 1984?”, were the first things that Steve Jobs said when he introduced the Macintosh computer.

This was the first device that had a graphic interface and a mouse that was very easy to use. This was Apple’s best wish to take on the International Business Machines.

However, this remained a runner-up due to the fact that it was very expensive and Microsoft had great success with Windows. Regardless of these things, the Apple Macintosh prosperously set the new standard for the way people communicate with computers.
