We had previously reported on rumors that the entire lineup would feature lidar, the iPhone 12 Pro's standout depth-sensing feature , but lidar ended up making an appearance only on the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max after all. It's possible Apple might expand the feature to its full lineup in instead, but we haven't heard anything yet.
Another of the camera features we're still waiting on is an improved telephoto lens.

Released on June 29, , the original Apple iPhone, had a 3. Compared to phone memory today that doesn't seem like much, but it was enormous at the time. It had a MB memory, which was fairly impressive, and weighed just grams. It was, however, considered ahead of its time, and as Apple, who had now "reimagined the phone," were bathing in the glow of the iPhone's success.
Apple immediately began plans for a new iPhone, aimed at beating its predecessor, in every category. This was not an easy task given the available technology at the time. Hardly one year after the release of the first iPhone, which took place before the App Store, Apple released the "phone you have all been waiting for.
It was The differences between the iPhone 3 and the original iPhone were slight, except for the App Store and its 3G connectivity. Even so, it sold a million units in the first weekend of its release. It was really an incredible feat of marketing and technology and paved the way for the next phone, which again promised to be better than the last phone. Less than 11 months after the ground-breaking iPhone3, Apple, riding the success of the previous version, released the iPhone 3G S on June 19, At the time it was deemed the "most powerful" phone ever made.
I remember when it first came out; it looked truly stunning, with its classy styling and premium materials. The iPhone 4 was a barn-storming success, securing , pre-orders within 24 hours of launching. The iPhone 4s looked the same as the iPhone 4 on the outside. All in, the iPhone 4s, while rather incremental in the design department, made some rather significant steps forwards with specs, overall performance, and features. At the time, no one had even an inkling about voice assistants, let alone having one inside their iPhone.
The iPhone 5 might have looked a lot like the iPhone 4s, but it did come with some pretty meaty updates. Visually, the iPhone 5 looked like the iPhone 4s. But there were physical differences; for starters, it had a completely different aspect ratio , making it slightly longer than the 4s.
It also sold exceptionally well too; Apple clocked up 2 million pre-orders in the 24 hours after it was launched. The iPhone 5s looked more or less identical to the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4s, but it was a significantly different beast.
The biggest change, however, was to do with the home button; Apple replaced it with TouchID. TouchID had a huge effect on the phone market. It also helped Apple rake in billions of dollars of revenue from Apple Pay. Altogether, the iPhone 5s looked kind of dull. The iPhone 5s was joined by the iPhone 5c at launch. It lacked TouchID which was reserved for the iPhone 5s. But it did come in a bunch of colors and, well, that was about it.
The iPhone 5c was basically a colorful redux of the iPhone 5. Why was the iPhone 5c so popular?

Not only were they the biggest iPhones Apple had released to date, but there was no longer a 4in iPhone option.
When did the iPhone 6 come out? Apple launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus on September 19, The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were the eighth generation of the iPhone and they brought along some pretty big changes to how the iPhone worked. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were significant because they were the first time Apple really updated its industrial design since the iPhone 4. The iPhone 6 Plus also had a 5. People were shocked, scared, and bamboozled.
