Now let's talk about iPhone. iPhone is an incredibly powerful and personal device. It's the product
we use the most every day. With amazing capabilities, iPhone has changed our lives and has never
been more indispensable than it is now. It's been another big year for iPhone. Ever since its
launch, iPhone 11 has been the most popular smart phone in the world. People love their iPhones.
iPhone has led the industry in customer satisfaction every year since it was first introduced.
There's so much that people love about their iPhones. They love how easy it is to use,
how it connects people in personal ways, how it elevates photography, keeps us informed and
keeps us entertained. With a powerful ecosystem of apps in the App Store, iPhone enables people to
do more and more things every day. And users can trust that iPhone is designed to do all of this
while protecting their security and privacy. Every decade, there's a new generation of technology
that provides a step change in what we can do with our iPhones. The next generation is here.
Today is the beginning of a new era for iPhone. Today we're bringing 5G to iPhone. This is a huge
moment for all of us, and we're really excited. 5G will bring a new level of performance for
downloads and uploads, higher quality video streaming, more responsive gaming, real-time
interactivity and so much more. 5G networks are more advanced, with lower latency and less
network congestion. So you can get higher network speeds even in densely populated areas.
And 5G even helps protect your privacy and security, since you won't need to connect to unknown,
unsecured, public Wi-Fi hotspots as often. Each generation of cellular network technology on
iPhone has enabled breakthrough innovations and entirely new opportunities for our developers
and our users. And 5G is the most exciting step yet. For so many people, this all becomes
real with 5G coming to iPhone. As you know, iPhone provides seamless integration of world-class
hardware and world-class software. What you may not know about is the incredible collaboration
between Apple and our carrier partners around the world to ensure iPhone users get the best
possible experience. We're fortunate today to have one of our closest partners join us.
I'd like to welcome Hans Vestberg, Chairman and CEO of Verizon, here to Apple Park.
Hans, this really is a big day. And our teams have done some amazing work together.
