The iPhone is 14 years old
The original iPhone turned 14 over the weekend. More precisely, it has been 14 years since the then living Apple leader Steve Jobs introduced the smartphone to the world, which eventually became the most popular phone in the world.
On January 9, 2007, at the Macworld conference in San Francisco, Steve Jobs unveiled a device that he said was a combination of a touch-sensitive mobile phone, an iPod, and an Internet connection.
The iPhone went on sale on June 29, 2007, it worked under the proprietary iPhone OS, which later turned into iOS. The original sold over 6 million units. The launch of each subsequent model was accompanied by huge queues and a rapid increase in Apple’s share of the smartphone market.
The iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max hit the market late last year, and sources are already revealing details about the iPhone 13 lineup due out in September.

Why overpay for smartphones with 5G? On the example of the Samsung Galaxy A14, you can see that we are talking about a huge difference in performance.

The Samsung Galaxy A14 5G smartphone was introduced at the beginning of the month, but the company is preparing a more affordable version with 4G support. And today we have all the main characteristics of this model and images.
The design of the younger version will be the same, except that instead of brown it will be silver. Many characteristics will also not change, although there will still be differences.
The main thing, of course, is the platform. Instead of the latest Exynos 1330, MediaTek Helio G80 is used. Compared to the Exynos 850 in the Galaxy A13 4G, this is certainly a very significant improvement. For comparison, the Exynos 850 scores about 145,000 points in AnTuTu 9, while the Helio G80 scores 230,000 points. True, the same Exynos 1330 is gaining more than 410,000 points, so the difference between the A14 4G and 5G versions in performance is enormous.
The screen of the Galaxy A14 4G will retain the size of 6.6 inches, Full HD + resolution, but there will be no increased frame rate, like the A14 5G. The battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh, the main 50-megapixel camera, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of flash memory will also remain, but charging will be only 10-watt. But the smartphone will receive stereo speakers.
The novelty will be released at the end of March. In Eastern Europe, they will ask for 200 euros for it.
