Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.

Steve Jobs, The New York Times, 2003

📱 Apple released a new promo video focusing on the design of its products. Indeed, hardly ever an Android device user would understand this. Apple is all about style and design, and as Steve Jobs believed, design isn’t just about how it looks—it’s about how it works!

👍 Every day, we interact with buttons meticulously crafted by a huge team. If you know a gadget more “design-focused” than Apple, share it in the comments!
