Why Red iPhones Say 'Product' On The Back

  • Опубликовано: 16 дек 2021
  • iPhones come in a variety of colors, but only the red models say the word ‘product’ on the back. This is due to a charity partnership Apple has that began back in 2006. The organization is called Product Red, cofounded by the singer Bono and activist Bobby Shriver.

    The reason why Apple is working with Product Red has to do with the story about how iTunes was made.
    Back in the day the model of $0.99/song was thought of as something crazy to do by the recording companies, who usually wanted to sell the entire album which had 1-2 hit songs. However the first band that decided to work with Apple to help their innovative approach was U2. And U2's frontman is Bono. Who also founded (Product) Red. So it's kind of Apple's gratitude to the band.

    The reason it says "product"RED on the back - instead of having the apple logo in place of the word product (as happens with every other partnership of this charity) - is because Steve Jobs wouldn't allow the apple logo to be placed inside the parenthesis. The partnership nearly fell apart completely over this and so the janky "logo" was born

Nonetheless, you missed in this video the fact that it would originally be (APPLE) red, but steve jobs hated the idea because he thought it would ‘cheapen’ apple’s image and logo, and also because it could confuse customers.

    I did get a Product Red iPod touch, in fact, it was my first Apple device.

I did learn about it a couple of years ago and it’s really nice what Apple is doing to help.

    Can you make a video about AAPL shares and it's growth ? Especially next year it will be the 1st 3 trillion dollar company . Can you also discuss the stock splits that have occurred during the years ? Can you also mention and discuss the famous billionaires who have invested in Apple or who have owned the stock such as Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Carl Icahn etc ... and why it is still a good investment at 3 trillion ? Is it still valuable at that 'inflated' price or is it still 'justly' valued or 'under' valued ? I made some money while investing in AAPL stock from 2018 till the last time I bought it ... it was just before the 4 to 1 split of august 2020 ( over a 250% return on capital). I am holding on to the shares and see their evolution till the EV's . I just want to know your views on the future of the company and it's shares .
