Another feature of today’s restaurants that greatly increases the loudness inside are open kitchens—where the making of the food is on full display. This design used to be relegated to the lowly diner. But fine-dining restaurants began to expose their kitchens during the 1970s and early ’80s; Pearlman attributes the trend to Wolfgang Puck (though he didn’t invent the idea). Puck’s restaurant Spago, which opened in 1982, was one of the first high-profile restaurants to feature a centrally located brick oven, and was met with widespread critical acclaim. Other design trends that increased the volume of eating establishments also got their start at this time, including the communal table and full-service bar dining.

The transparent design of the CandyShell Clear case reveals the clean design elements of the iPhone 6. Built of dual layers of polycarbonate, the case meets military-grade standards in drop and scratch protection, and has UV protection to avoid yellowing. Great hand-feel, and easy to slide into a pocket with easy-to-press buttons on its perimeter. — Milo Kahney

Though none of these are actual deal breakers, one big problem plaguing the Pocophone F1 is the lack of Widevine L1 support, which means you can’t watch HD content on apps like Netflix. Pocophone has promised a fix is incoming soon, but as our Jeet Suthar points out, adding Widevine L1 support normally requires sending the phone back to the manufacturer so I’ll wait and see exactly how the company is planning to live up to its promise. For now, I’ll be marking the lack of HD streaming support as a major con that potential owners of the phone need to be aware of.

There are cooling slots and vents on the housing, and those can be disconcerting as it looks like liquids can go right into the tablet’s interior. That’s not the case as the fan, which doesn’t mind a bit of water, is mounted inside a sealed "enclave" inside the tablet.

If variety was a perceived necessity, it was also an opportunity. “We could make aluminum, and stainless steel, and gold, and different alloys of gold,” Ive said. (Hinting at future plans, Ive added, “We’ve not stopped.”) The product range could extend into mass-market luxury, allowing both Ive and Newson to escape the contrasting restrictions of their exalted careers. Newson became an acknowledged Apple contributor only last year, but he worked on the watch from the start; his name will appear on patents. Newson had designed airplane interiors, and the Safilo reading glasses that Ive often hooks over the collar of his T-shirts; but he had seldom made mass-market goods. He had sometimes been envious of what was possible at Apple. In 2007, in order to pursue the costly idea of milling one-off pieces of marble furniture, he had partnered with the Gagosian gallery, crossing the border into fine art. “I needed to find an outlet for my creativity,” Newson explained. “I couldn’t find a client who would do those kinds of things.” To work with Ive, at the other end of the manufacturing scale, would give him a similar license. A designer at Apple “can think about doing things in a way that you otherwise would have dismissed as being impractical or frivolous, or just not economical,” Newson said.
