Technology without Steve Jobs

Probably the most promising person in the world of technology is Steve Jobs. He is the person behind the incredible Apple gadgets that most people use nowadays. He is the man who created a new face of technology, computer applications and the like. He is an influential people and a person who made an impact to the world in general.

The death of Steve Jobs had gripped many people all over the world. Apple had just lost a visionary and imaginative genius, who was among of the greatest innovators in history. Apple was in fact, a valuable company ever made and Steve Job’s death left people to wonder if technology died with him too.


Steve Jobs died a day after the launch of iPhone 4S, the latest of the iPhone series. People were expecting a release of an iPhone 5 but it turned out that a refreshed version of the iPhone 4 has been launched in the market. This release had greatly affected the sales of the Apple Company by five percent but it recovered after the shocking news had spread that Steve Jobs died. However, the company is expecting their sales to tumble again after some time. The strong influence of Steve Jobs had greatly kept the Apple’s competitors at bay, especially those who try to imitate the products of Apple. Many people felt that Jobs was great enough and if he is still alive, he could salvage the uninspiring release of iPhone 4S. 

Too many people were quite unsatisfied with the iPhone 4S. It was just a sort of enhancement, not really a new iPhone to purchase. However, the company has proven that they still have the best gadget that Steve Jobs ever made. The iPhone 4S features faster processor capabilities, an improvised graphics accelerator, a camera with eight mega pixel and a CDMA/GSM chip that will make it a world phone. Clearly, the iPhone 4S is absolutely not the iPhone 5 that people expect to have. The software and hardware specs that it features do not make the gadget a bad upgrade at all, but still a lot of users would opt to continue waiting for the release of iPhone 5.

The question lies as to how much direction or inputs that Steve Jobs left to his team before he died. Can his team compete with the brilliant ideas that Steve Jobs created? Can they produce a phenomenal iPhone 5 and iPad 3? Steve Jobs had created a legacy but never will he be present with any upcoming Apple product innovation.

The death of the Apple maker, Steve Jobs was quite disheartening. It could make the company come into an end or it could be another beginning for the company. How can technology be without the greatest Steve Jobs? The question is still left unanswered.

May you Rest in Peace.
