How Apple Designed New iPod Nano

[GauravAgr]

As I was going through today's Apple Event, I couldn't help but notice similarities between Nokia Lumia, Samsung Yepp and new iPod Nano. It's like thinner Samsung Yepp P2 with Nokia Lumia Bezel. What do you think?

I would have said "Lumia 800 that ate a white iPhone 4"

Just like Nokia N8 looked like some outlandish phone that ate the iPhone 3G.

The iPod nano looks almost like an exact copy of the Nokia Lumia 800/900.

Yeah, but screen size and form factor is very similar to Samsung Yepp, and Bezel is complete copy of Lumia Bezel.

So when Apple pointed to Nokia as not being carbon copies of their phones like Samsung, what they actually meant was: "Hey, that looks cool! Let's nick the design..."

Looks to me like they took the old iPod nano, and merged it with the last gen iPod nano....

?

The Yepp looks nothing like the Nano.

And don't forget that the Nano chassis came out well before the Lumia. At most we can accuse Nokia of copying the Nano, but we won't, because that's stupid.

Just another baseless claim... *yawn*

Also one of the 2006 iPhone prototypes from the court document has an iPhone that looked very similar to the new Nano.

It's okay for Apple to copy others. They are Apple.

Old protypes from 2006 looked like this too. LOL

I think this is a great design except for the tiny wheel at the bottom. Nice change...not innovative but a better look than last years.

To me the new nano is an exact copycat of Lumia 900, and looks nothing like the 2006 prototypes :/
