> We had one prototype that us engineers hated to death because the only difference between it and the rest was that it was a different colour, but ALL the players hailed it as the golden standard.
The products were black, this one was grey to trial alternative materials processes. So it was even more infamous for being a one-off, and we tried to hide it as much as possible as it confounded our usability test variables. No one could adequately explain why it was rated the best, so we dubbed it The Phantom.
Out of curiosity, which colour was it?
