Bobbing for apples: The next iPhone
Graphic Design, Product Design, Product Innovation
With all of the talk about the new iPhone coming out soon, and everyone taking a bite at what may be the next iPhone, concept designs like this are popping up. I hope this is a joke, because having something like this go to market would just be an example of lazy design.
Do you think that you would have been excited to see a phone like this come out in 1996?
I will wait for the real thing, trying to ignore the speculative hype in the meantime, in the hope that Apple reveals a new device that is nothing short of revolutionary. The interface and function of the mobile communication device is not dead. We are not at a stopping point in how we can design and redesign the communication device as we know it. Simply extruding the length of the iPhone will be the demise of Apple as the leader in communication technology design. One day, the Apple iPhone will be the Beta or cassette of yesterday. I just hope that day doesn’t approach prematurely because of a failed design like this concept of the G4.
