now we just have to bring an ipad for netflix, an iwatch to know that we are still alive, a macbook to edit our stupid youtube videos and an iphone to take selfies
I was born in 1958 when color photographs, color TVs and movies in color still carried a Wow! factor. That was a few months after Sputnik was launched (look it up). My iPhone stuns me every day.
I am 39, and fall into the “Xennial” generation, which is a micro generation made up of being closer to generation X but falls into the Millennial group, and so video games, TVs, portable technology, cameras etc were all rapidly evolving as I was growing up. As a result, I took to new technologies naturally and now at 39, I’m using an iPhone 12 and have enjoyed seeing how far technology has come just since I was a kid. I’m just young enough to have had an analog childhood, but also barely old enough to remember the birth and advent of the internet and the coming of the digital age. It’s been a crazy ride watching it all evolve to where it has today.
I remember having to pay by the minute for phone calls and also paid per text sent and received. Data was optional and very slow and websites rarely rendered properly. I am glad to see things have changed dramatically.
I was born in 2000 and when I was 7 (so in 2007) in France (because I’m french) I was playing LEGO in front of the TV and at this exact moment I saw the keynote in the news with only a few minutes off with Steve Jobs unlocking the first iPhone ! I was shocked when he scrolled because I remember I always wanted to do this on my dad’s computer screen ! I even remember the lock screen with anemones and clownfish !! And you know what ?? 2 years ago I was like « OH MY GOD !! Could I find the original keynote on TH-cam ?? » and I actually find the exact moment I watched when I was 7 !!! That’s creasy ! Apple really changed my life forever !
Dude thank you SO MUCH for making this video as time before iPhone and Android took over is something i struggle to remember so much, like it's ridiculous how much impact these devices have had on human society
Well if you don’t like to charge your phone every day, buy a 2006 nokia, but you don’t like a phone that only work for make call neither, right, so you are just being stupid for no reason.
Dude STFU. It lasts all day that’s enough. You wanna bitch? Then always get the large models. I’ve never had issues with battery. Got 19999 problems but my battery ain’t one

I still use a standalone camera at times. It's bridge camera and it has more features, as well as a ton of zoom for photography. Cameras on smartphones are really only for casual use, at least it is for me.
The same can be said about video games. There's still space for handheld gaming consoles for me, and I take my Nintendo Switch with me when on the go. But for people who aren't into video games, a smartphone is good enough.
Mobile cameras were already popular when iphone came out and Nokia and Sony Ericsson were pushing foward on this regard and the iphone had one the worst cameras on the market for the price.
Yea but the software was crappy. Before the iPhone no one considered any phone a camera replacement. This changed with the 2nd and 3rd generation iPhone.
The iPhone camera was mostly rubbish until about the 4S. People were more likely using iPhone cameras out of convenience rather than to take a decent photo prior to that. Point and Shoot Cameras were still very much a better quality device for taking photos around the early iPhone era.

I think the iPad/tablet dominance in the future is vastly overestimated. There are still so many scenarios where computers are a better alternative or at least tablets still have a ways to go. You also can't change human preference that easily and there are still a lot of people that really dislike touch screen interfaces on their computers. I work in retail and have found there's a large portion of people who ask specifically for computers without touchscreens. I don't think this is so much lack of knowing how to use it or the availability of apps which are useful to them, some people just prefer a peripheral input. Same goes for video games, motion control still struggles because people prefer controlling there games with something more tangible and concrete.
If anything, prosumers and professionals still going to use cameras and workstations or laptops. Also a lot of people prefer keyboards to type and bemoans the fact that all laptops come with Apple-inspired keyboards which they don't like.
Perfectly said. Agree with this 100%. The gaming community also relies on configurable, upgradable and Windows/Linux based machines to do their thing. Modularity and upgradability is a large aspect of why traditional computers still exist. Nobody ever stops to think why we still use bulky DSLR cameras which design-wise have remained largely unchanged for almost half a century as a golden standard in photography.
Plus, while the iPad Pro may be more powerful than many Macbooks, the fact that it's running iOS is a huge handicap. While I definitely don't mind traveling with my iPad for vacation, I can't see myself being able to write papers the way I do on a laptop (ie quickly switching between Word and a browser window for one of my sources to refer back to, printing out assignments for professors who still request hard copies, etc.). I'd also argue that not only is the Surface a thorn in the iPad Pro's side, the fact that it's not limited by a mobile OS really makes it the preferable option for people looking for a true laptop replacement.

Yep, my first iPhone was also the 4S, I was in my late 20s. I specifically remember watching a Kings of Leon live performance on TH-cam over WiFi, and distinctly remember how sharp the video resolution was compared to my buddy’s 3GS!
Out of my iphone, ipad and laptop the ipad is the least used device. It is a luxury item mainly used to watch videos on the couch late at night without disturbing the whole house. Covid-19 has made it even more obvious that to do work remotely you still need a desktop of some kind with a keyboard and mouse to be most productive.
I was born in the 80’s and yeah I seen my son video chatting his friends and I told him when I was in school I had to walk 10 miles to talk to my friends no iPhone or Android nothing like that lol
Naufal Fatihussalam you mean phones littered with ugly physical buttons and confusing convoluted software then yes, that was life before Iphone. No one can honestly say that the handset market was better pre 2007, those so called “smart” phones were a hot mess.
My first ever smartphone was an iPhone 4, man I loved that thing so much, I was stupid because I set a password on it and locked myself out. I was seven at the time and now fast forward into 2021 when I was the big 15 I got an iPhone XR, had to relearn the thing and I use it to play games, watch TH-cam, and listen to Spotify! All though I wish I still had my iPhone 4 to relive memories...
Yeah pretty much. The original developers of Android went on record saying that after watching the original iPhone presentation, they knew that Android in its then-current form was dead on arrival as it was designed to be a Blackberry competitor.
Dude you take back when talking Old School! Hell I have not seen Old School Facebook in Years... Almost forgot about how simple the iPhone was! And iTunes and how compacted it all has become! Jobs era was the Best Era RIP!
I remember my family owning a brick phone, slide phone and a clamshell phone. Each of them had a unique mobile game. Remember, kids smells games in your pocket.
I was born in the 90s. I remember my dad’s best friend got an iPhone in 2007 when I was in middle school. Before iPhone, only corporate executives, medium to large company bosses, those that need to send emails on the go, and rich teens had a smartphone. Only 2 of my camp counselors when I was in summer day camp in my elementary school days had a blackberry. It has better game graphics than a flip phone. If I was a young adult shopping for a phone before the iPhone days, I would’ve gotten a Motorola Razr, LG chocolate, or Nokia 2600 series.
I really don't see how the computer would be "eclipsed" or whatever by a thin tablet-like device. Sure, I think certain clientele will appreciate the PC more than others. But we have to consider the limitations tablets and smartphones come with regarding how much hardware you can stuff inside a thing. Afterall, why do you think the displays on these devices keep increasing? Everyone wants a bigger screen. Won't be long before phablets are basically the size of a regular computer. At which point, it's no longer even a phone, is it? Not to mention it's pretty annoying for a college student to attend an online seminar or write essays on a smartphone.
The DS also had finger touch screen capability in some games such as Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. I also believe that it was multi-touch, but the iPhone indeed popularized the idea

I had a HTC PPC-6700 in 05, that phone was incredible, before that I had the Hitachi G1000. They both ran mobile windows and were very capable UNTIL. Ill never forget, at a family gathering in 07 my cousin pulled out his iPhone, I cant tell you the wonder of touching the screen, the fluidity and responsiveness was mind blowing. It may seem common place now but at the time, only knowing windows smart phones and styluses, the iPhone felt like the future. That said, I use android but I know Apple revolutionized mobile devices.
Post pc era, I'm a uni student speaking this roughly one year after the video was release. We are definitely here, ahhaha, some of my classmates take notes on their phone and I just got my iPad this week and let me tell you, IT IS AMAZING, for uni, it's so practical, lightweight and just plain simple, it just works, seamlessly for anything research related.
I still don't have my apple pencil, and probably won't buy the smart keyboard (it's too dang expensive), but even the touch keyboard is pretty good, I've already done a few assignments on it, it works without a problem.
Life before the iPhone -Outside was a thing -Looking up -Social Networking with human beings -Newspapers -Hobbies -Unaware of ex's love life -trying new restaurants wihtout YELP -LIVE TV -Phone Books -Maps/Remembering -Photoshop Dominance -HD -Ate food wihtout distractions -Alarm Clocks -Arriving on Time -Reliability -Knocking on Doors - Voice Calling -Losing touch means you'll never see them again -Dating was harder, but better -Libraries -Keeping Our Thought to ourselves -Enjoyed The Moment -Playboy -Eye Contact Life After iPhone -Porn Addiction got worse -Cheating is way more common -Lazy Fucks -Back posture -Cancelled Plans -"I just dont have the time" -"I didnt get yoiur text" -'I'm here" -Camera Filters ruined trust -Charging every day -People as a whole aren't as good to be around -Connection is tougher to come by -Trolling -Memes -InstaFaceChat wastes life -But Hey I dont have to leave the house, and live off of DoorDash,Netflix, and Amazon Prime lol ......Lord help us all
Really loved this video but disagree that we are heading towards a tablet-dominated era. Tablet sales have been declining for years as they have proven to be impractical for anything other than occasional use (we use laptops for this) and even then tablets are being squeezed out by “phablets”. I think Apple will eventually have to give in and come up with a 2-in-1 macbook like most Windows laptops are now.
Hop it did 😂 I still think that bigger smartphones have taken on much of the occasional browsing market and on-the-go content consumption but iPads are now shifting towards being more productivity machines so are basically in a whole new product segment.
Disagree, there are many digital artists that beg to differ. Being able to use Procreate on an iPad and not be tethered to a dedicated pc rig is an absolute game changer and just for that alone. Plenty of other creative avenues different than business professionals that find tablets useful
I prefer life before the iPhone because now everyone's looking into their phones 24/7 rather than enjoying life outside. Limited features in a phone makes people less addicted to it.
I still remember the days before the iPhone lol. I was born in 1987 so I was born in the so called dark ages lol. I remember being told that Apple was going to be releasing a phone and not believing that it would be successful. Boy was as I wrong 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I'm now in the planning stages of getting a iPhone either the XR or XS because I have had enough of the problems that I am having with Android and there is a game on iOS that I desperately want but can't because it's not on Android only on iOS. I already have move to iOS on my phone so I can be ready for the day when I upgrade from the Samsung Galaxy S9 to either the XR or XS. I want the XR because the colors it has reminds me of the G3 iMac which I have but my friend who has a iPhone 7 recommended that I should get the XS because it's more of the equivalent of what I have with the S9 so I'm now torn between the XR and XS😑😑😑😑😑. I like the XR because of the colors it has reminds me of the G3 iMac but I don't like how much bigger than the S9 it is so I guess this is one of those times when I have to go to the store and look at the phones and hold them in person and compare how much of a grip on the phone I have and how comfortable it feels to me.
Get a popsocket on the Xs Max and you'll be fine. Big phones aren't meant for all people for me I only use them because I want the biggest display i can get. Also I have pretty large hands so its fine. But with a popsocket on the back I can then reach everything with ease. Ya it sucks some people need to do this but if Apple and other companies never pushed the screen size limit than we'd never be where we are today. Those kickstarter buyers gave us the future we have now. So i see as it a necessary evil for innovation. Also ya the Xs Max is expensive no crap. But if u pay for it monthly like 99% of all iPhone buyers do through your carrier. Then you won't care, since its stretched out over 2 yrs. Best get the best u can get now then get a low tier item that won't last as long. Common sense really. Anyhow best of luck in your decision.
Personally id go with a Samsung Galaxy s9 or s9+. That's my personal opinion as its more customisable and flexible, it does everything the iPhone xs, xs max does and more, The cameras are on a fairly equal footing (iPhone slightly better camera.) But all round I still would choose the Galaxy and I have both the s9+ and xs max. my personal opinion I must stress.
@@scottishadonis I already have the S9. I have been having nothing but problems with it and Android recently so I'm going to be getting the iPhone XS. I'm also getting it because iOS has some games that I really want and some if not all Android games have versions of them on iOS so I'm not losing much besides the headphone jack and carrier billing which I can get used to have without. And besides there is a lot of things that I want to do in the outside world and having carrier billing is too tempting for me to resist. Like for example I have been literally trying to do a trip on The South Shore Line from Chicago Millennium Station to South Bend Airport and back but every month I find out that I don't have enough money to do it. So if I can get rid of something that is tempting me and I can do the trip I'll be more happy. Because I have literally been trying to do this particular trip since April of 2013 but among other things like health issues in my family which I have to put my things aside for family because family always come first before fun. But now I have had enough of delaying this trip and I intend to do it before the end of the year hopefully if not before the end of January if nothing else that I don't see coming happens.
Honestly better. I was born in 1993 and it was better back then because people actually communicated with people and not just stare at their phones the whole time.
Wow, can you get anymore pretentious. It was a real thing and a beautiful thing, want to know why? Cause people werent spending outrageous amounts of money on phones, people didnt bend their necks as much and stayed in their phone screen, developed good fucking social skills by actual interaction with people due to limited social media, etc. So yeah, life was good before the iphone prick.
Normalpornfornormalpeople Some of us had poor social skills before the iPhone, so don’t blame the phone for that. Some of us are just natural loners , who don’t like talking to people.
Am I the only one who feels that this video is little off the point. Instead of telling life before iPhones it was more like how iPhone changed our lives.
I’m generation X. And while I use all sorts of smart devices and computers and social media and I’m fully immersed, I can also say I’m very glad I got to live before this time. Life just was warmer and more real and authentic and people were connected in a true way. Life feels more disconnected now in many ways. I would never wish to be younger if I had to miss the 20th century.
I was a little kid at the time so I didn’t really use electronics... when I was a kid I got to play with my siblings often now a days kids are glued to their screens
Blackberry let a good thing fall apart when they INSISTED that only business people would use "smart" phones and they didn't need to cater to the general public and their penchant for phones that could play games or do un-business stuff.
I born in 2008 my first device was iPad 1st generation it had soo much retro games and my second device was iPad mini and also ,I had iPhone 4s. Apple played a role in my life my father still has Mac mini 2011 , and to this day I have an iPad Pro 2016.
I know I was born in the mid 2000s, but the first time I ever used a smartphone (Motorola Droid), it really opened my eyes to what tech could do, and if I dare say it, make me the person I am today.
You’re so young! I’m almost 40 and got to watch technology rapidly evolve throughout the 90s and 2000s. I remember the first time I ever used the internet, and the first time I played a video game online. Your generation is going to see some crazy leaps and bounds in technology in the next couple decades!
It was worth living, and it was great as a kid. There was no dealing with online bullshit, we just went outside and played. We used our imaginations. As an adult, I enjoy smartphones and everything they can do, but I'm glad I was born a decade before the iPhone was released. I did end up buying one the day it came out, but it wasn't until a year later that they released the App Store and then I used it more often. I still went outside just as much though, if not more simply because I had a camera in my pocket.
People today think 90s phone tech is old? LOL . I grew up with a telephone on kitchen wall you had to walk over to, grab the handset with a cord attaching it to the phone, and dial each number with a dialing wheel with holes to stick your finger in and turn the wheel. We were on what was called a "party line" where we shared service with 3 or 4 other households in the same town. The other people could actually pick up their phone and listen to your private conversations, until you finally got pissed off enough to yell at them and tell them to hang up! LMAO
Back in my day, we had to carry around 4 devices if we wanted to play video games, listen to music, take pictures, and call/text people!

I think the iPad/tablet dominance in the future is vastly overestimated. There are still so many scenarios where computers are a better alternative or at least tablets still have a ways to go.

I work in retail and have found there's a large portion of people who ask specifically for computers without touchscreens.

Out of my iphone, ipad and laptop the ipad is the least used device. It is a luxury item mainly used to watch videos on the couch late at night without disturbing the whole house. Covid-19 has made it even more obvious that to do work remotely you still need a desktop of some kind with a keyboard and mouse to be most productive.

Life without iphone was PS2 and iPod for me & people used to be nice to each other!
Life before iPhone?
U mean the phone market so colorful and almost all phone have different design?
Naufal Fatihussalam you mean phones littered with ugly physical buttons and confusing convoluted software then yes, that was life before Iphone. No one can honestly say that the handset market was better pre 2007, those so called “smart” phones were a hot mess.
You mean when phones were clunky and limited? STFU!!
Naufal Fatihussalam I do think phones were more distinct from one another. That was interesting.
Are all in my reply born at 2000s?

I liked my life before the iPhone, now I can't imagine going back without it lol
It's just sad you are a prisoner to technology my friend
Can you please make a life before (...) series? It's quite interesting!
I remember the concept of pinch to zoom on google maps was mind blowing back then
I was 11 months old when the first iPhone came out
A life without a Iphone is like a life without your hands,you need it for everything
Lol you sound addicted
Before iPhone multi touch screen life was hard 😂
The iphone is a legend, that's why apple is my favorite company and am happy that apple changed the phone industry
My first ever smartphone was an iPhone 4, man I loved that thing so much, I was stupid because I set a password on it and locked myself out. I was seven at the time and now fast forward into 2021 when I was the big 15 I got an iPhone XR, had to relearn the thing and I use it to play games, watch TH-cam, and listen to Spotify! All though I wish I still had my iPhone 4 to relive memories...
So basically android users Should be saying thank you to Apple
Yeah pretty much. The original developers of Android went on record saying that after watching the original iPhone presentation, they knew that Android in its then-current form was dead on arrival as it was designed to be a Blackberry competitor.
The app store didn’t exist until iOS 2

I was born in the 90s. I remember my dad’s best friend got an iPhone in 2007 when I was in middle school. Before iPhone, only corporate executives, medium to large company bosses, those that need to send emails on the go, and rich teens had a smartphone. Only 2 of my camp counselors when I was in summer day camp in my elementary school days had a blackberry. It has better game graphics than a flip phone. If I was a young adult shopping for a phone before the iPhone days, I would’ve gotten a Motorola Razr, LG chocolate, or Nokia 2600 series.
I really don't see how the computer would be "eclipsed" or whatever by a thin tablet-like device. Sure, I think certain clientele will appreciate the PC more than others. But we have to consider the limitations tablets and smartphones come with regarding how much hardware you can stuff inside a thing. Afterall, why do you think the displays on these devices keep increasing? Everyone wants a bigger screen. Won't be long before phablets are basically the size of a regular computer. At which point, it's no longer even a phone, is it?
Not to mention it's pretty annoying for a college student to attend an online seminar or write essays on a smartphone.
Lets not forget having to lug around a keyboard, mouse, and a monitor which all would require chargers.
@@MrBioniclefan1 Its called a "laptop". And no, not everyone needs to be portable all the time.

P.S I am acting my age. I love armpits if you know what I mean;)
Holy shit the armpit
I had a HTC PPC-6700 in 05, that phone was incredible, before that I had the Hitachi G1000. They both ran mobile windows and were very capable UNTIL. Ill never forget, at a family gathering in 07 my cousin pulled out his iPhone, I cant tell you the wonder of touching the screen, the fluidity and responsiveness was mind blowing. It may seem common place now but at the time, only knowing windows smart phones and styluses, the iPhone felt like the future. That said, I use android but I know Apple revolutionized mobile devices.
Post pc era, I'm a uni student speaking this roughly one year after the video was release. We are definitely here, ahhaha, some of my classmates take notes on their phone and I just got my iPad this week and let me tell you, IT IS AMAZING, for uni, it's so practical, lightweight and just plain simple, it just works, seamlessly for anything research related.
I still don't have my apple pencil, and probably won't buy the smart keyboard (it's too dang expensive), but even the touch keyboard is pretty good, I've already done a few assignments on it, it works without a problem.

Really loved this video but disagree that we are heading towards a tablet-dominated era. Tablet sales have been declining for years as they have proven to be impractical for anything other than occasional use (we use laptops for this) and even then tablets are being squeezed out by “phablets”. I think Apple will eventually have to give in and come up with a 2-in-1 macbook like most Windows laptops are now.
Which will cost 10x more then windows
And be 10X better. I tend to live on my iPad. I can do a good 90% of what I normally do on any of my 3PCs with it.
That comment aged like milk
Hop it did 😂 I still think that bigger smartphones have taken on much of the occasional browsing market and on-the-go content consumption but iPads are now shifting towards being more productivity machines so are basically in a whole new product segment.
Disagree, there are many digital artists that beg to differ. Being able to use Procreate on an iPad and not be tethered to a dedicated pc rig is an absolute game changer and just for that alone. Plenty of other creative avenues different than business professionals that find tablets useful
I prefer life before the iPhone because now everyone's looking into their phones 24/7 rather than enjoying life outside. Limited features in a phone makes people less addicted to it.
I never thought I'd watch a video about life before smart phones

@@realvivifromloona ye
I still remember the days before the iPhone lol. I was born in 1987 so I was born in the so called dark ages lol. I remember being told that Apple was going to be releasing a phone and not believing that it would be successful. Boy was as I wrong 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I'm now in the planning stages of getting a iPhone either the XR or XS because I have had enough of the problems that I am having with Android and there is a game on iOS that I desperately want but can't because it's not on Android only on iOS. I already have move to iOS on my phone so I can be ready for the day when I upgrade from the Samsung Galaxy S9 to either the XR or XS. I want the XR because the colors it has reminds me of the G3 iMac which I have but my friend who has a iPhone 7 recommended that I should get the XS because it's more of the equivalent of what I have with the S9 so I'm now torn between the XR and XS😑😑😑😑😑. I like the XR because of the colors it has reminds me of the G3 iMac but I don't like how much bigger than the S9 it is so I guess this is one of those times when I have to go to the store and look at the phones and hold them in person and compare how much of a grip on the phone I have and how comfortable it feels to me.
briansivley2001 it's only 6.1" you wouldn't notice any major difference in size
Get a popsocket on the Xs Max and you'll be fine. Big phones aren't meant for all people for me I only use them because I want the biggest display i can get. Also I have pretty large hands so its fine. But with a popsocket on the back I can then reach everything with ease.
Ya it sucks some people need to do this but if Apple and other companies never pushed the screen size limit than we'd never be where we are today. Those kickstarter buyers gave us the future we have now. So i see as it a necessary evil for innovation.
Also ya the Xs Max is expensive no crap. But if u pay for it monthly like 99% of all iPhone buyers do through your carrier. Then you won't care, since its stretched out over 2 yrs. Best get the best u can get now then get a low tier item that won't last as long. Common sense really.
Anyhow best of luck in your decision.
Personally id go with a Samsung Galaxy s9 or s9+. That's my personal opinion as its more customisable and flexible, it does everything the iPhone xs, xs max does and more, The cameras are on a fairly equal footing (iPhone slightly better camera.) But all round I still would choose the Galaxy and I have both the s9+ and xs max. my personal opinion I must stress.
Xr is worthless
@@scottishadonis I already have the S9. I have been having nothing but problems with it and Android recently so I'm going to be getting the iPhone XS. I'm also getting it because iOS has some games that I really want and some if not all Android games have versions of them on iOS so I'm not losing much besides the headphone jack and carrier billing which I can get used to have without. And besides there is a lot of things that I want to do in the outside world and having carrier billing is too tempting for me to resist. Like for example I have been literally trying to do a trip on The South Shore Line from Chicago Millennium Station to South Bend Airport and back but every month I find out that I don't have enough money to do it. So if I can get rid of something that is tempting me and I can do the trip I'll be more happy. Because I have literally been trying to do this particular trip since April of 2013 but among other things like health issues in my family which I have to put my things aside for family because family always come first before fun. But now I have had enough of delaying this trip and I intend to do it before the end of the year hopefully if not before the end of January if nothing else that I don't see coming happens.
I remember the days of chiselling messages on clay tablets.
Honestly better. I was born in 1993 and it was better back then because people actually communicated with people and not just stare at their phones the whole time.

The days when tech and life were at a prefect balance
I was part of the generation when my childhood is half traditional half techy.
Now my younger brother is now 3/4 techy, 1/4 traditional 😭
I’m generation X. And while I use all sorts of smart devices and computers and social media and I’m fully immersed, I can also say I’m very glad I got to live before this time. Life just was warmer and more real and authentic and people were connected in a true way. Life feels more disconnected now in many ways. I would never wish to be younger if I had to miss the 20th century.
I had a Samsung omnia and loved it!
No matter how much tablets and phones take over the pc market, u can never get bored of typing on ur laptop keys, specially if u have to type a lot😂

Good old blackberry I had one it was the best of times.... it was the worst of times lol
Preston Thugman lol 😂 yeah bbm was the shit back then though lol
Blackberry let a good thing fall apart when they INSISTED that only business people would use "smart" phones and they didn't need to cater to the general public and their penchant for phones that could play games or do un-business stuff.
Reminds me of a Beatles quote

You’re so young! I’m almost 40 and got to watch technology rapidly evolve throughout the 90s and 2000s. I remember the first time I ever used the internet, and the first time I played a video game online. Your generation is going to see some crazy leaps and bounds in technology in the next couple decades!
I was 2 when the first iPhone was released. Love the iPhone!
Life before the iPhone? Was that life even worth living?
Barely
It was worth living, and it was great as a kid. There was no dealing with online bullshit, we just went outside and played. We used our imaginations. As an adult, I enjoy smartphones and everything they can do, but I'm glad I was born a decade before the iPhone was released.
I did end up buying one the day it came out, but it wasn't until a year later that they released the App Store and then I used it more often. I still went outside just as much though, if not more simply because I had a camera in my pocket.

People today think 90s phone tech is old? LOL . I grew up with a telephone on kitchen wall you had to walk over to, grab the handset with a cord attaching it to the phone, and dial each number with a dialing wheel with holes to stick your finger in and turn the wheel. We were on what was called a "party line" where we shared service with 3 or 4 other households in the same town. The other people could actually pick up their phone and listen to your private conversations, until you finally got pissed off enough to yell at them and tell them to hang up! LMAO
I do miss having a touchscreen AND a keyboard, ngl.
