1. IBM Simon
IBM Simon is generally considered to be the world's first "smart phone." Although in the early stages of development of mobile devices do not have this argument, but IBM Simon 1994 listing of a combination of PDA (personal digital assistant) and mobile phone features, you can call, email, fax, built-in calendar, notepad, calculator and other applications, it can also support the installation of third-party applications, although a small number. Hardware, 16MHz processor, 640 * 200 pixel monochrome screen, 1MB RAM + 1MB ROM is the most advanced configuration.
Unfortunately, the high prices led to IBM Simon in the market six months after the cut-off, a total of 50,000 units sold during the. But there is no doubt that it proved a great prospect "smart phone" This type of product, significance.
2. Nokia 9000C
If IBM Simon confined to the US market, then the Nokia 9000C then the body will make the world more charm to mobile devices. It has a 24MHz processor and 8MB RAM, powerful performance, while the notebook styling and a full physical keyboard can send and receive e-mail and other operations, this design has also been extended to the future of the Nokia Communicator series.
In fact, Nokia 9000C is widely considered the world's first smart phone, the proposed advanced web browsing experience in the future has become one of the standard smart phone.
3. Ericsson R380
Ericsson R380 may be the first to be accepted by the user "smart phone", it has a shape closer to the phone, the next flip numeric keypad is a huge touch screen, this design is a very easy way. EPOC system to enable it to achieve PDA functionality and synchronization with Microsoft Office, but also supports web browsing, e-mail, voice and gaming capabilities.
Ericsson R380 listed probably in late 2000, the price is very expensive, reaching $ 900, but gained considerable attention.
4. BlackBerry 5810
Another early smart phone manufacturers can not ignore is the BlackBerry. 2002 launch of the BlackBerry 5810 with integrated phone function (despite the need to wear headphones to achieve), equipped with a full QWERTY keyboard, perfect PDA functionality, Palm successfully snatched the limelight. It is from after 5810, Blackberry started to become the new darling of the European and American markets.
5. Treo 600
Some users have a long age of smart phones to play and will not forget Palm Tero, even though at present they have become history. 2002 listing of the Treo 600 is Palm after the acquisition of its first smartphone, equipped with a 144MHz processor, 32GB ROM, and a color screen with 160 * 160 pixels, and supports external memory and an MP3 player or camera, of course, also has full PDA functionality.
6. The BlackBerry Curve 8300
Blackberry really attracted widespread attention from the beginning of 2006, Curve 8300 and listed in 2007 undoubtedly played a huge role in promoting. More compact design, feel good full keyboard, trackball navigation key and enhancements to make it in just five months to get the 10 million units sold, it also brings boom BlackBerry.
7. Apple iPhone
January 9, 2007, Steve Jobs has brought to the world "mobile revolution" iPhone, CEP is interesting that Google Eric Schmidt even Apple's conference took the stage to introduce the iPhone's built in Google maps and search functions. In the same year by the end of June, the first iPhone in 74 days 1 million units sold.
Now look, iPhone revolutionary is undoubtedly reflected in the interactive form of innovation. Capacitive touch screen, gestures and the future App Store, have completely changed the shape of smart phones. While the first iPhone lacks 3G connectivity and some basic functions, but it is undoubtedly the greatest inventions in recent years.
8. HTC Dream (G1)
Speaking in front of just Google close cooperation with the first iPhone, but then Google has released the Android system, and with the joint launch of the first product HTC Dream (G1) in 2008, no wonder Steve Jobs has accused the father of Android is "thief." So far, iOS and Android began a long struggle between the mobile platform.
First Android phone is obviously some conservative, though the same built-touch screen, integrated QWERTY keyboard, but is certainly a compromise, then Android has not yet formed a huge influence, Dream's reputation is not as iPhone.
9. Motorola Droid
After 2007, a lot of "iPhone killer" began to appear. Although Nokia is still wound up a huge influence, but its S60 mobile phones may not be "smart phones" in the true sense, but after a brilliant Motorola V3, then select the correct line: Go Android fields.
Droid series first product is somewhat similar to HTC Dream, but the hardware is fully upgraded, including greater clearer screen, 5 megapixel camera, etc., Android 2.0 also has better features, making the Droid iPhone record breaking sales records.
10. Nexus One
Nexus One may be the first began to have their own style and direction of Android phones. Without a full keyboard and redundant design, large touch-screen design of future Android phones also brought positive significance. Of course, hardware upgrades, system-level functions of evolution, but also allow consumers to realize that Android phones are not inferior to the iPhone.
11. Apple iPhone 4
iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, though they have some place upgrade, but did not really make popular iPhone series in the world, and even become a fashion and cultural representatives, but the iPhone 4 apparently did. The summer of 2010, Apple released iPhone 4, glass body design shines, retina screen also proposed a new concept, and in the future was the experience of other mobile phone manufacturers. Of course, iOS 4 system also brings significant functional evolution, application software is also beginning to show blowout trend.
Although suffered a "antenna" incident, but did not affect the consumer desire for the iPhone 4 went on sale three days to achieve sales of 1.7 million, the subsequent listing of the white version is further global sales exceeded one million units.
12. Samsung Galaxy S
2010, Samsung introduced the first flagship Android phone Galaxy S, the iPhone 4 as a direct competitor, has invested enormous marketing. Samsung Galaxy S is the first with a 4-inch AMOLED screen and a 1GHz processor, Android phone, 5-megapixel camera is also very good, so to achieve a global sales of 25 million units.
However, Apple later filed a lawsuit against Samsung, accusing the Galaxy S plagiarism exist, although Apple eventually won the case, but at this Galaxy S has long been discontinued, the same year the S3 was a blessing in disguise, creating a huge sales success.
13. Motorola Atrix
Motorola Atrix smartphone is clearly not the history of a successful product, but it's product philosophy there is a certain sense. Motorola by means of a external form, can be turned into a Linux laptop Atrix achieve better productivity applications. Of course, due to the expensive accessories, ultimately failed to gain market acceptance.
14. Samsung Galaxy Note
2011 release of Galaxy Note may be after the first iPhone's most innovative smartphone, because it presents the "big screen" concept, and obviously, the current market has been "no big screen is not mobile", even Apple failed to break the law.
15. Samsung Galaxy S3
Samsung S3 reason the list is that it really get rid of the shadow of the iPhone to create Samsung's own style. Although the design was to ridicule as a "lawyer Design" (avoidance iPhone patent), but the essence of it is built into a variety of new gestures, eye-tracking operation, although a little overdone, but it also laid the development direction of Galaxy series, and has since become Samsung's signature, but also on other Android manufacturers put a higher demand.
16. Nexus 4
Google and LG Nexus 4 co reason the list is due to its high cost. 4.7 inches high resolution screen, 1.5GHz processor, 8-megapixel camera, and high-end design, let Nexus series began concern. Of course, one of the biggest selling points of the high cost, so that users around the world began to pay attention Nexus series.
What's next?
Obviously, an impressive straight men not limited to cell phones, waterproof Sony Xperia series, support Touch ID of iPhone 5s, extremely cheap Moto G may have some breakthrough, but with a curved screen also allows Samsung Note Edge We see the future of flexible mobile phones. I believe in a few years when we look back at the development process of the smart phone again, you will see their shadow.
So, do you still remember the first smart phone look like? Smartphone and how after a series of hardware, software innovation to the current form before, take a look at their growth process it.
