Five Apple anecdotes as iPhone maker marks 50 years
Apple highlights five pivotal moments including its founding trio, iconic 1984 Super Bowl ad, and design innovations that shaped consumer technology over 50 years.
- On April 1, Apple celebrates its 50th anniversary, marking five decades since Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne signed the company's founding contract in 1976.

- Apple has historically deployed bold colors and careful staging—from transparent 1998 iMacs to the 2015 rose gold iPhone—shaping global technology industry standards and consumer expectations for five decades.
