This past week, Apple announced exciting plans for the iPhone 8, 8plus and the hotly anticipated
and futuristic iPhone X.
ButÖ.hold on a blooming momentÖÖ.
iPhone 7, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone TEN?
What happened to our mate the iPhone 9?
Hello and welcome back to lifeís biggest questions, I am Rebecca Felgate and today
I am asking what could the iPhone 9 look likeÖ..or I guessÖwhat did it look like, before they
aborted it before it even had the chance to shine with her contemporaries.
This isnít the first time Apple has skipped a number.
Letís take a little walk down the iPhone memory lane.
It all started in 2007 when Apple debuted their first iPhone, marking an unstoppable
dynasty in telecommunications and sparking the social media generation.
The first iPhone was a stout, curvy little chap with the trademark home button.
From the original iPhone, apple jumped to the iPhone 3G, possibly named as such because
of its 3G connectivity.
This is where colour options came into play.
Then came the iPhone 3Gs, a faster phone with a now laughable 3 megamixel camera.
Things started getting sexy with the iPhone 4 and 4s, where the numerical namings became
linear and the phone became tall and slim.
This was when the front facing camera was introducedÖ.and so was our favourite friend,
Siri.
Then with the iPhone 5, we saw a change of charger, some funky colours with the 5c and
some fancy golden metal with the 5s.
The 6 saw a change in shape and a wider screen with retina HD display and an 8 megapixel
camera and the 7 started introducing wireless with their headphones.
We know that by the time good old Apple jumped from 8 to 10 we had lost the iconic home button
and things had got petty screen focused, of course there is the new facial recognition
feature and the animoji facial recognition tech.
Ra, ra, the ten is great, but the real riddle, the real thinker, the real beard twizzler,
is where the heck is the iPhone 9?
Many people are joking that 7 ATE nineÖ.get itÖ itís a mysteryÖ.similar to that of
Windows Microsoft 9.
To tech giants just not like the number nine?
NINEÖ.thatís German for noÖ.
I am straight up calling conspiracy theory hereÖI think the iPhone nine existed but
it was far too awesome and futuristic for us mere muggles to handle!
This is what I think happened with season 9 of the iPhoneÖ..
In my head, there is no real getting around the fact the iPhone 9 is magic.
She is paper thin, and foldableÖyesÖ.a foldable iphoneÖlike an actual sheet of paper.
You could probably make a paperaeroplane out of her if you want, but I wouldnít advise
it as the iPhone nine costs 9billiontytrillion dollarsÖand the same in pounds, just cause
Apple hate the British.
Siri has had a series upgrade too and can actually read your mind, which is good as
there is no home button to summon him anyway.
The mind reading feature also works both ways, you no longer need pesky earphone, the iphone
nine will play music straight to your brain!
The iPhone 9 has taken augmented reality to the next level, you can actually step into
this phone, if you wantÖwhich means you can take part in your own life-size version of
Nokiaís vintage snakeÖ.because even Apple recognises that was the best game ever.
Facial recognitionÖpahÖ.the iPhone 9 goes above and beyond and can actually clone your
image with just one look and is able to project realistic holograms of you through wireless
networksÖso, I mean there really is no need to show up to work or school.
It can also project augmented reality surroundings soÖ.there really is no need to leave your
house.
You donít need to charge the battery either, this wireless beauty charges on sunshine Ö.another
example of appleís hatred of the British, who do find it difficult to charge their iPhone9s
on cloudy daysÖwhich of course is pretty much every day in good old blightyÖ.but donít
worry, itís always sunny in California, not so coincidentally home to Apple HQ.
The only design flaw to the iPhone nine is that its actually invisibleÖ.I mean, not
invisible, because you can feel and hold itÖ.its just fully see-throughÖ.which can be pretty
pesky when you try to find it.
Luckily the voice activation feature along with its flight mode megachip allows you to
summon it to youÖ.you can set the voice commandÖbut for the aspiring wizards among us, Iíd go
with Accio iPhone 9!
Although of course, I wouldnít call my iPhone 9, iPhone 9Ö.what with all the godlike features
it would need to be like, Deity, Zeus, Thor.
ACCIO THOR.
What a babe.
Okay, soÖ.i may have got carried away.
The truth is, there probably never was an iPhone 9.
co-release of the iPhone 8, 8 plus and ten, marked the 10th anniversary of the iPhone,
so Apple probably wanted to mark that with a special release.
Also, the iPhone ten is a huge leap in tech from the 8, and it needed a more glamorous
and alluring image than simply being the iPhone nine.
Being the iPhone ten sets it apart from its peers, and using the roman numerical of the
X makes it seem cooler and more futuristic in some way.
The people at apple are calling the iPhone X a phone of the future, which I for one am
really excited aboutÖ.although spare a thought for our mate the iPhone nine, who is locked
away somewhere, better than any iPhone we have ever seen!
One day her it will be her time Öperhaps she can rename herself the iPhone Shine.
(can you guys add like godlike music there?)
So, that was a fun little Lifeís Biggest Questions for you there!
