6. Literature Review
Quirky is a characteristic of Boat, a comparatively new consumer
electronics brand founded in 2016. Its designs have a generous use of
bright colours -- red, pink, blue, fluorescent -- and the occasional grey
and black, aimed at catching the eye in the cluttered segment of
affordable mobile phone accessories. The company makes earphones,
headphones and portable speakers, along with accessories such as
chargers and cables. We tested out one in each category for its design,
quality and ruggedness.

11. Selling electronic products
like accessories
Before 2014 earphones and
headphones were sold in the
market as electronic products.
The design elements didn’t
really matter while purchasing
such a product. But slowly,
design elements started
getting attention from
customers. But what Boat is
doing goes far beyond design.
It sells its headphones like a
fashion accessory
