Every year we see a new iPhone being announced and the entire world goes gaga behind it. But have you ever thought how many prototypes would have been made before Apple decides on the final design ?? Well, here’s a gallery from Buzzfeed who managed to get some of the early prototypes which Apple designed but never made to the market because they chose the designs that we have in our hands today over these. Some of the designs may resemble you the iPod Nano and some the iPod Touch.
Interestingly, some designs also look similar to the rival designs from Sony. A lot of hard work is done before any product is launched to the market and these pictures tell us exactly that. If you look carefully, you may also notice the look of the icon set Apple was initially planning for the iPhone. Its interesting how these prototype designs have turned in to the products that we use today. Kudos to Apple, Steve Jobs and his team.
Is there any design among these you wish that Apple chose over any existing design in the market ?
