The key for any Apple product is to find a happy medium that result in a product being scratch resistant as well as shatter-proof. As competitor, Samsung just released their newest phone, the Galaxy 7, which is waterproof. Apple needs to design a product to withhold its competitive edge with Samsung’s newest idea. Creating a highly durable new iPhone would help Apple keep the advantage over its’ competitors. Functional design has and needs to continue to be Apple’s top priority.

In the next Apple watch to be released there needs to be an easier method of display for the company, Quanta. Using the prototype phase will help in the process of creating an easier Apple watch design. The key factor for the Apple watch and any product for that matter is to keep the amount of parts used to a minimum and use standard parts when possible. Computer-aided design teams are going to be crucial to the next assembly of the
