For me the 4/4S era will always be peak iPhone. Were they the best iPhones ever? No, but at the time, they were so ahead of the competition that it was crazy. The gorgeous timeless design, high resolution screens, the build quality, the user experience. It was just better. Now every new iPhone is just a slightly different flavour of smartphone with the smallest spec bumps and way too much bloat. (Android phones are suffering from the same problem). We need another halo phone like the iPhone X to hopefully switch things up again.

I'm 26 and Apple and the iPhone have been in my immediate life since my Sophmore year of high school. I distinctly remember a freshman in my class getting the new iPhone 6 Plus and everyone was in awe of it. An iPhone that is the size of a small book. Then in 2017 as a freshman in college, I watched the September keynote on my 2016 Macbook Pro I got for college when the iPhone X came out. For me, the “Peak” of iPhones is not a singular iPhone but the continual progression from the iPhone 5s to the iPhone X. The two most iconic designed iPhones to come out. The most technological progress and risk occurred during that time frame. But, the greatest aspect we don't have insight from is the man himself, Steve Jobs. The 2007 introduction of the iPhone is one of the greatest product announcements to ever occur. Watching this following the iPhone 16 announcement makes the innovation of earlier years apparent, with the minuscule upgrades that this generation has from my iPhone 13. So much so, that I may wait until the iPhone becomes revolutionary again until I upgrade. Great work. Enjoyed the retrospective.

Before I owned an iPhone, I never owned any kind of smartphone beforehand. I started off with a few basic phones from Verizon and then when I switched to Straight Talk 10 years ago, I’ve had iPhones ever since. The very first one was an old 4 that my dad used which was on its last legs but I knew I’d be fine when I was able to upgrade. My first brand new iPhone was the 5S which felt like a huge upgrade over the 4 just from basic functions alone but I felt excited back then about the fingerprint scanner. When I got the 6 I needed a phone with more memory so I went from 16 GB to 32 GB but for the past four years I’ve owned an 8 Plus with 128 GB which now looking back I’m glad I didn’t go for 64 GB. I was mainly looking for a bigger phone at the time alongside more memory. For somebody like me who has been used to older iPhones even for the times I got each of them, I still feel pretty impressed with how far iPhones have gotten. I’m going for a 15 this year and I know it’s going to be a massive upgrade when I get it.

In terms of technological progress, I’d say it peaked around the 12 or the 13. This is when Apple made a drastic redesign to iPhones that it still has been since then.

A "recent" iPhone that had the biggest "Yeah, now THIS is the one" feeling is the X. Overall, name, marketing, design, it was the one you can tell Apple really threw a lot at it rather than going the safe route and providing a incremental update. Mind you the ones since have all been good. I never had a one that i felt was bad or had actual issues with but they all felt better or for worse the "same". Somewhat stale, somewhat fine. The most exciting parts of the recent iPhones honestly is chip upgrades. As a techie, seeing the smartphone incrementally inch closer to desktops and laptops is always at least a little exciting.

The iPhone X was the peak. It was the single biggest generational jump. Going from a home button and thick bezels to gestures and minimal bezels. At its core it’s still the same iPhone experience, but so much was new. And the X still looks modern. I remember when the X launched, I had friends who knew nothing about phones talking about it. It kinda reminds of the iOS 7 launch. EVERYONE, even if they didn’t know anything about technology, were talking about iOS 7. But saying that, I genuinely believe we are getting to the point of bi-annual hardware releases. I’m watching this after the iPhone 16 event. There’s a new camera button, that will probably just get annoying after a week. And the obligatory processor and screen improvements. I won’t be upgrading my 15 Pro. I’ve upgraded my phone and watch this year, and can’t justify giving Apple more of my money.

Then everyone was really shocked and swamped me to see it. That was how exciting the original iPhone really was. Those days are long gone. Sadly.

To be honest, that 10s Max was the peak of iPhone, but I do think the iPhone 7 Plus jet black was a good contender as well, but really the newer ones are pretty good but it’s basically the same phone from a 12 to the 16

i would like to argue that the "3D touch" is not dead, it has reincarnated into the camera button on the new 16.

I have had a iPhone 5s as my first phone and now still have my 11 pro after 5 years. Both iPhones are peak for their time periods and agree that X was the best but anything after the 11 pro’s battery life and camera has been minor improvement. Do not know if I will upgrade to the 16 pro after the little change from the 15

13 pro was and still is the best iPhone ever. 3 years later newest iPhones struggle to surpass it. Yes, they are better but marginally. For half the price it's still the best iPhone to get.

I've got an iPhone 11 Pro. Very trusty and reliable, still use it to this day. The 11 series is where I think Apple really peaked.

IPhone 12 for me, the iconic squared of sides from the iPhone 4/5 era in combination with the new design language of the X. Together with being hyped looking forward to watching the live announcement video in lockdown during the pandemic and while watching discussing it via Zoom with friends who were also watching... one of the only highlights from 2020 and the last time the hype felt like back in the early days.😄

I'd say that the overall peak was the iPhone X, and the peaks of refinement were the 5S and 13 generations.

Great job, Josh! I truly enjoyed this journey in the past watching the video, so nostalgic and warm, brought so many bright memories about iPhones from my youth ❤

I can't stress enough how much the iPhone X was the perfect looking bezel. I genuinely dislike modern razor thin bezel phones. They feel less futuristic and more like a meaningless technological arms race that if anything hampers user experience. I don't need a bezel to literally bleed into my hands, there are reasons they have existed in the past beyond the typical answer of space or technical constraints. Having a bit of bezel is good actually. Love the way iPhone X bezels just look so sleek and great and at the same time leave plenty of room for your fingers.

Apple should’ve used the 8plus for the SE models, and left the $450. That would’ve been the deal of the Century

A great in-depth look at the iPhone generations. I wanted an iPhone when they first came out, but Verizon was the only network that would work for me. I ended up in the middle of a 2 year android contract when the iPhone 4 came out for Verizon, so I had to wait on the 4S, which ended up being a good thing. I kept that white, 64GB 4S until iOS 9 made it unusable. I wanted to wait on the iPhone X, not even knowing what it would be, but I ended up with a jet black 7 plus with 256GB. I ordered an iPhone X in 256GB in white. I kept that iPhone X until it was no longer updated and now have an iPhone 15 Pro Max in natural titanium with 1TB storage. I imagine I’ll keep it until it is no longer updated as well.

The X is peak iPhone, from the X onwards there are only minimal differences between generations, we need a huge overhaul for the 17

I didn’t need a home computer until Apple 2 hit the market. I didn’t need a music player until the iPod Nano came out. I didn’t need an iPod Touch until it hit the market. I didn’t need a smart phone until the iPhone 6 made owning one necessary. I thought that since I had an iPhone and an iPod Touch I didn’t need an iPad, but then I did. I have bought into the “next big thing” except for the Mac and Apple Watch. But I use an iPhone SE Gen 2 because it does everything I need it to, as does my iPad Gen 9. I have no need to upgrade. The Cook era Apple has not come up with “the next big thing” that changes society enough to make me NEED to buy one.

Josh, I absolutely love your approach to B roll. You have a great eye for it, whether interior or exterior, good framing and composition. Love the old console stuff sneaking into them as well.

Unpopular but 15 pro could be considered peak as it took out every single nitpick people had with iphones, 60 hertz, notch, lightning, no always on etc

I was in university when the first iPhone came out. I had a Sony Ericsson and didn’t see the point of getting an iPhone. Especially since smartphones were so expensive. For years I always got free phones with the cheapest contract that was just €6 per month and I didn’t need data. I eventually did get the iPhone 4 and there was no turning back but all of a sudden you needed expensive phones and data and it was 60 bucks a month not 6. I’m old enough to remember when people didn’t have mobile phones at all let alone smartphones. Sometimes I miss the simplicity of those years growing up in the 90s and I would remember all my friends home phone numbers in my head and if someone wasn’t home you couldn’t reach them at the moment. As far as iPhone peak I personally love the XS Max and compared to my 14 pro I barely notice a difference.

The decline in design started when they went from rounded edges to sharp sides - totally uncomfortable.
