The record shows that the mark “IPHONE” is dead and was abandoned by Apple Inc., a California corporation, after no Statement of Use or Extension Request was filed following the Notice of Allowance. The abandoned application covered a wide range of goods and services, including periodicals and publications about digital mobile devices, maintenance and repair of mobile telephones and related electronics, and various entertainment and technical services such as online databases, software consulting, and multimedia content. Because the mark was never registered, it does not give Apple control over every use of the word “IPHONE.” The latest status event was the abandonment on October 15, 2012, and no further maintenance or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. The closest concern for a new name would arise in the same categories of digital device publications, repair services, or software consulting. If you’re considering a similar name, be aware that Apple’s abandoned mark still signals a prior claim in those specific areas.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
