Priced as high as $599, the first iPhone allowed users to play music, browse the internet and send email, all while retaining the basic call and text functions of clunky competitors. It linked wirelessly to speakers, had a smooth, keyboardless surface and boasted a 2-megapixel camera.
At the time, it competed with the likes of Motorola’s Q, Research in Motion Ltd.’s BlackBerry Pearl and Palm Inc.’s Treo 750.
Apple’s stock peaked 8.3% on the reveal, while competitors RIM and Palm, the latter of which became BlackBerry Ltd (NYSE:BB) and the former subsumed by Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:HPE), plunged 7.9% and 5.7%, respectively.
Since the release, Apple has risen from a $12 stock to a $300 stock.
