SanDisk, one of the leading brands in flash memory solutions, has just revealed a new, re-designed logo. Right after the reveal, netizens are taking funny digs at the new design. Social media is being flooded with reactions from users across platforms and communities. Overall, the reactions are mixed. Some believe the design is futuristic and right on point, while others have differing opinions.
Sandisk's new official logo was developed by Joel Davis as mentioned in an article recently published in the official SanDisk Website. Davis had a few things in mind as a developer that inspired the latest design. One of them was to communicate the core of what SanDisk as a company always stood for.
Let's trace a short history of SanDisk logos before we dive into what netizens have to say.
The Evolution of the Sandisk Logo
The company got its current name only after renaming it in the year 1995. Prior to the renaming, in 1988, the company was known as SunDisk Corporation.
The logo pertaining to this period was monochrome, featuring only black and white. The main logo had a small icon attached at the end of the word SunDisk that resembled the sun.
The red logo as many know it today was developed later.
