Watching the First iPhone Event, 17 Years Later!

This video was posted, to the day, 17 years after the iPhone was unveiled - January 9th, 2007.
Originally, I planned to have this out for Christmas but uh, then I got COVID, but hey- this works out pretty well. Hope you all enjoy; I know I really did.

When Steve says OS X in an iPhone, I think it means something very different today than it did back then. It would be similar to Microsoft talking about something running NT. I don't think anyone expected a macos desktop, but it literally is the same core stack of Darwin and very similar if not identical frameworks for the system.

the Starbucks person definitely knows, and the Starbucks got lots of orders for 5000 lates to go since then, to a point where its problematic

Wow! The music app was better on iOS 1 then it is now!

The iTV (:P) demo probably was not faked. Because it was all local video not streaming. Streaming from your iTunes library. It’s easy to have a PowerMac behind the desk with an Ethernet cable and get that performance

The Wii music was wonderful

bruh cutting out the pauses at the start of the iPhone presentation is so wrong. the pauses are there for a reason.

What an amazing video man thank you

iPhone really set the stage and revolutionized the way we use our phones today. It all dates back to this event here it’s amazing looking back

The famous, are you getting it?

ITV is a channel here in the UK.

It seems funny to think there was a time when there were no iPhones.

The legacy of the first iPhone isn't just newer iPhone models but all smartphones. It was the first generation execution of a brilliant idea.

Al Gore was one of the Board of Directors of Apple at the time

My first smart phone was the iPhone 3G I had a couple androids in the past but I still stick to iPhone I just like the UI of it

This was so revolutionary looking back at this. It’s almost like taking somebody from the 1980s and showing them a PC set up from the early 2000s. Their mind would be absolutely blown.

I want too see ya remake this keynote ambit with your voice

It is technically runs OS X. iPhoneOS is based of the foundation of OS X

I loved it when Steve Jobs was in charge of Apple...not real fond of TC.

ITV is a broadcaster here in the uk

Al Gore was too busy on Epstein island

the most surprising thing is that i never knew they went wirreless earbuds at that time :0

ITV is a commercial channel here in the UK and IIRC blocked Apple using that name for their product

I always love your content man! ❤

ITV is a massive UK broadcasting channel. That’s probably why they never went with it. Kinda glad, Apple TV sounds so much better imo

The jokes that dude made on stage lol they need to bring that back

R.I.P. Steve Jobs! I wonder how 2023 iPhones would turn out if he was still alive and also would’ve the iPod touch still discontinued in May 2022?

I had to unlock the phone to get it to use for T-Mobile back then it was stupid the iPhone was locked to ATT I’m glad they changed that.

iPods were a huge ramp for iPhone's success, including sync ecosystem with iTunes and online music store. Even if such phone technically was introduced by, say, Google or MS, it wouldn't have such a strong foundation for success.

I usually watch these past Apple keynotes as they are, but it's great to see you watching and providing commentary. Hope you do this again with other events at some point.

It took android years before it got multitouch

Happy 17 year anniversary of the first ever iPhone 🥳🥳

what if Jony used the Motorola iTunes phone?

Do more of these!

I can’t tell if he was joking when Mr. 91 said that he has never heard of Starbucks before and also said it was a 2000s thing. Starbucks is super popular still today so idk what your talking about. I loved the whole video though, great job pointing out key points and editing the keynote down. Takes a lot of work and I have respect for that 🫡

The demonstrations were the world's greatest magic tricks with what we know now behind the scenes.

Album art was more important back then…because you were still solely, almost, buying songs and items. So, you still needed that connection to buying physical albums.

“You can tell he’s excited…” that was funny.
He was like an excited little puppy.

The nostalgia ♥️

Cook has nothing on Jobs. That man can get you excited about a product.

I love this presentation…. I’ve watched it multiple times. Who knew what it would turn into.

Didnt he delete a contact of someone who was a part of the team as a way of saying "your fired" during the contact showcase

iPhone had the first real web browsing experience. Looked exactly like it did in laptops and desktops and that was revolutionary at the time. That really got my attention.

I could watch these keynotes all day long they are very entertaining thanks for this super fantastic look back at of OG iPhone
