What is Behind the Success of the iPhone?
0As many know, yesterday began selling the iPhone in our country. Once again Apple has managed to mobilize hundreds of people, including several celebrities, to the dealers to the big evening sale of the new iPhone.
Unofficially it is said that the new iPhone has sold more units than its predecessor, which leaves us all with a question: What’s behind your success? Could it be for his new pair of cameras, dual-core processor or thousands of applications available? I think not and here show what I think is the secret behind the success of iPhone 2, and in general, most Apple products.
iPhone 4 Construction Quality
If there is something that Apple has carved out a reputation is built on the quality of their equipment. There have been many cases of Macs that resist drops many feet or, more recently, the iPhone 4 who survived a fall of 300 meters.
Lately though the build quality of Apple hardware has fallen (iMacs with defective GPU, the AntennaGate sounded, and something more personal, my MacBook has gone for repair twice in his birthday), the Apple brand has been linked to most of the population as a trusted, whose products are not usually cause problems.
Thus, the iPad inherits the reputation of Apple and one to buy a iPhone can be sure that you have the “Apple quality” and therefore unlikely to be a defective product.
Ease of use
Another factor influencing the success of Apple products is their ease of use. As an example I put the iconic “click wheel” of iPods: the most confusing controls music players used to play music, Apple came up with this new concept which, among other factors, drove sales of the iPod into the player musical excellence.
Having learned a product Apple sells more user friendly than one with a thousand functions cumbersome, in 2007 introduced the iPhone with iPhone OS (now IOS), which became a hit for the same reason that the iPod: while most other smartphones using Windows Mobile and Palm OS operating systems that were very full but nothing intuitive, Apple introduced a different concept which sacrificed so customization terminal to make it easy to use, that captivated thousands of people and introduced them to world of smartphones.
History repeated itself in 2010 with the presentation of the iPad. Although he could have provided Apple Mac OS X as many expected, but the Cupertino company ultimately decided by IOS. The reason is simple: there TabletPCs and had spent years in the market but had failed mainly because an operating system designed for conventional computers, which made them slow and difficult to use. In contrast, Apple’s tablet IOS promised to be fast, lightweight, with very good battery life and, especially, easy to use. Its ease of use made them become the best selling tablet so far and redefine the market for tablets. Now instead of using a conventional operating system like Windows or Linux, tablets manufacturers are opting for mobile operating systems like Android, webOS or Meego.
Promotion
If there is something you can praise of Apple is its fantastic marketing team, thanks to which has created several gems of marketing. Apple commercials are made so that all the good teams are highlighted, in a way that seems “perfect” their equipment.
And not only is the advertising itself. Another thing Apple has done well to position their products in the media. Simply turn on the TV and watch a movie or American series to see the work that Apple has made entering the means: there are few movies / series where there is an Apple device, be it iPhone, Mac, iPhone or iPod.
Like on TV, Apple is very much on the Internet. Many sites are dedicated to reporting exclusively on Apple, and many more are also those who speak of the company but not exclusively. Also, Apple has a strong presence in social networks. As a result, many Internet users that are unfamiliar to most of the technology they learn the new releases from Apple as well as many other news that revolve around the company. This leads consequently to the last and most important point which I believe Apple products become successful.
Apple is ‘cool’ and AWESOME!
And this, dear reader, is that I think the highlight of Apple’s marketing and principal factor of success of its products, Apple is considered a brand cool. Do not you understand what I mean? Go to your nearest mall and you’ll understand everything people use Apple products as a status symbol, to bring an iPhone or iPhone makes you cool.
This is because most celebrities do not know whether or not sponsored by Apple using Apple products. And as the celebrity uses, many of their fans will too. This feeling of being ‘cool’ is what makes the iPhone 3G and even 3G still sold quite well having the hottest smartphone market at lower prices. History repeats itself with the iPhone 2: although there are and will better alternatives for the simple fact of having an apple in his back the will be more likely to be a “best-seller” than other tablets.
Apple is not the only company that has understood to be ‘cool’ is a very important factor for sales. RIM also has very clear and it is thanks to this very factor that their phones sold quite well despite the competition has left them as archaic, and thanks to this I am sure that the playbook will become the second tablet in number of sales behind the iPhone 2 (although the playbook also has some features that make it worth to hold this position). Another company that understands that the factor ‘cool’ is a sales engine is HP, whose new CEO Léo Apotheker said that this is a priority for his company, hoping to someday say “this is as cool as HP” and not “as cool as Apple.”
Thanks to these four factors, I feel that the iPhone and the iPad 3, 5 and iPhone, and the next iDispositivo be big hits. If anything Apple has taught us is that the success of a product is not in their presentations, but how to sell it. There is no point making a super tablet with lots of RAM, a processor and a thousand antics grand more if you do not know how to sell and attract consumers.

Jobs wanted to show the progress of the browser technology used in both models of iPhone, but confronted with problems OS4, provoking laughter and boos from the audience.
Some technologies that were considered impossible in the iPhone, have become reality in the new version because it has a new processor A4 and 40% more powerful battery to give users more entertainment. We have seven hours of talk time via 3G, six hours of browsing via 3G, 10 hours of video, 40 hours of music and 300 hours standby. Apple, in its commitment to preserve the planet, made its battery recyclable and free of contaminants.
