As Apple gears up for yet another iPhone launch without its iconic leader in the coming months, here’s our pick of the top 5 most memorable moments of Steve Jobs:

#5
The first ever iPod launch – 2001

The device that changed the music industry forever – Steve Jobs gave us the first ever iPod in 2001. Even though extremely bulky and under-powered by today’s standards, 5GB of memory in a 20mm thick device was revolutionary back then. And music has never been the same. The launch was followed by the opening of the first Apple retail store, and cemented Jobs’ reputation as a master orator.

#3
The 1984 advert launch – 1983

Watch Steve Jobs launch the Macintosh computer (and take on IBM)  along with Apple’s “1984” advertisement. Widely regarded as a masterpiece and the most memorable television commercial of all time, the advert went on to win 7 awards. The best part? It was only broadcast ONCE.

iPhone launch – 2007

My personal favourite – his charisma during this launch is unparalleled. The iPhone was way ahead of its time – notice the crowd’s astonished reaction when Jobs demonstrates scrolling through contacts by swiping his fingers. Again – a product that changed an entire industry – the smartphone industry.
