As regularly as clockwork, our thoughts have already started to turn towards the new 2019 iPhone – but before we get too excited about what Apple’s got in store for us this year, let’s take a moment to reflect on what it’s released since the very first iPhone back in 2007 over a decade back.
iPhone
This is the very first iPhone. It is sometimes referred to as the “iPhone 2G” due to its lack of support for 3G networks.
Battery Specs:
Current: 1400 mA | Power: 5.18 Wh | Voltage: 3.7 V
Camera Specs:
Rear: 1.9 megapixels | Cellular Radio: Up to EDGE (2.5G) |
Others:
Core Design: ARM1176 x 1 | CPU: S5L8900 | CPU Speed: 400 MHz (412 MHz as of iPhone OS 1.1.2) | Instruction Set: ARMv6 | Colors: Aluminum (Gray) | Firmware: Initial firmware: 1.0 (1A543a) | Latest firmware: 3.1.3 (7E18) | RAM: 128 MB | Storage: 4/8/16 GB | Wi-Fi: 802.11b/g | Bluetooth 2.0 EDR
iPhone 3G
The iPhone 3G uses a curved plastic case.

Camera Specs:
Rear: 1.9 megapixels
Others:
Colors: Black/White | Core Design: ARM1176 x 1 | CPU: S5L8900 | CPU Speed: 412 MHz Instruction Set: ARMv | Initial firmware: 2.0 (5A345) | Latest firmware: 4.2.1 (8C148) | RAM: 128 MB | Bluetooth 2.0 EDR | Cellular Radio: Up to HSDPA (3G) | Storage: 8/16 GB |Wi-Fi: 802.11b/g
Also missing from the original iPhone was 3G support, the top data speed of the time, though this was added to the second generation the following year (along with GPS). The first iPhone had been warmly received but by the 3G model people were really starting to see its long-term potential – and the concurrent launch of the App Store was a huge part of that, a true watershed moment in smartphone history.
