Also, regarding the aesthetics, maybe we can round the corners a bit more on the final design. Do you think that would be enough, or are you suggesting an entirely different shape? We probably don't want to change the whole shape, since our Kickstarter backers are going to want to receive what they saw when they placed their order, but we could probably make a few tweaks here and there. We haven't bought the molds yet. If the "look" of the product ends up being a big concern for everyone (or for Apple), we can easily release multiple styles once we get our funding and get into Production. Thanks again, this is something we didn't expect to hear. |

I would say so. Right now it looks like a collection of odd angles. Everything's angled. Also the stand is visually split into the front part and the back part, and it feels like they can be snapped apart like a chocolate bar. I would consider something like [1], whereby the outer shape is perfectly boxy, and there is angled recess for the phone. This is not unlike the original stand, but it's a very natural design choice if one goes for a simple look.
Another options is something like [2], which is also very simple and clean looking and yet has enough interior space to house your stuff. Proportions might be off, but you get the idea.

Work on the design. It's an Apple userbase you are targeting, design is your product.
