Criterion B

Aesthetics
Dark Magenta cover with a yellow star. Blue phone background with 8 apps: Games, Facebook, Twitter, Camera, Calendar, Logs, Contacts, Messages. Two buttons for phone calls. One red and one green. The games logo is represented by a pacman, The calendar by the date, Twitter by a T, Facebook by an F, Camera by a camera, logs by a phone, messages by an exclamation mark and question mark, and contacts by a person. On the cover, there is a hole for the camera and a button for exiting the current page.
Cost

Customer
The target audience will be teenagers, who are the ones to tend to own fancy phones. They want all the fancy equipment like twitter, tinder, tumblr, Facebook, Instagram. Women tend to prefer Smartphones to others. And my phone has a magenta cover which boys wouldn’t like. People from middle class and upper class will by my phone because of the price.
Environmental considerations
It has been stated that phones reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and stop the use of unsustainable materials in their products and packaging.

Design Sketch:


Design 1:






Design 2:














Justification:

I have chosen to chose the first design because it firstly it is lighter and smaller. The first design is 6 inches in length and 3 inches in width. However the second design is 7 inches in length and 5 inches in width, and weighs much more. I has multiple pages which means more apps than design 2. It has a more appeasing look to it and is easier to create on TinkerCAD than the second design. Although, it has sharper corners than design 2 and different apps, it is the better of the two.
