When it comes to modern gadgets, the Apple Watch is definitely one of the most useful.

I am using an Android phone, but having a small gadget would be beneficial.

Having the ability to see the overview of messaging before switching to the actual communication, the ability to monitor your health, and do more extra stuff seems to be beneficial.

While this idea was always exciting, I’ve never had an Apple Watch because of it’s price.

But things are going to change.

According to Engadget, it seems that the Apple Watch SE may use plastic instead of metal for the product design.

This is a step that Apple might take to reduce the price of the device and make it more affordable.

As a designer, I have doubts about whether it’s a good solution for a company. Yes, it will reduce the price, and even I might consider buying an Apple Watch now for a cheap price.

On the other hand, Apple always stands for its design and quality.

While I love plastic, aluminum seems to be a higher level. Does it mean that plastic is also cool nowadays?
