Which iPhone was the most ground-breaking?

    Introducing the first iPhone, Steve Jobs quoted that 'Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything'. Looking back at that keynote, Not everyone felt the same way about it and if they didn't, chances are - they do now.

    The iPhone has reshaped the smartphone industry a lot. Was it really the very first iPhone that took it mainstream popularity or was it another iteration?

    The iPhone 3GS is reportedly the most popular iPhone having a production run of 1181 days; followed by the iPhone 4, produced for 1174 days and for a lot of folks, that seems to be the device that really sparked their interest in Apple's iPhone offerings.

    As for others, it's the iPhone 4 which brought about a whole new design at the time and marked the end of AT&T's exclusivity on the device. At that point in time, the device became more accessible than ever before and the masses wasted no time grabbing them. If you really think about how many iPhone 4's you still see out there today, I bet it's a lot.

    On personal side note, I would say it was the iPhone 4. The retina display and its stainless steel body made it stand out from the crowd on its time. I don't remember any Android phone that matched its near perfection. It's premium feel and how it was announced caught the eye of the people. The iPhone 3GS wasn't as popular then. When the iPhone 4 was announced, everywhere you'd go on the streets, you'll see dozens holding the iPhone 4. It sparked up a whole new social status.
