Brands change logos all the time. This year we have noticed some Iconic brand names which you and I know and possibly even regularly use, that have undergone changes. Some brands have gone through small changes whilst others are quite dramatic indeed. Changing a logo is no easy task, as the amount of marketing and merchandise that goes along with it means these are huge expensive exercises. The changes of course have everything to do with corporate image and how these brands think consumers will react with a bit of tinkering to obtain a favourable image.

The funny thing about this new logo is that it looks almost identical to Beats By Dre Headphones:

looks a bit like beats

(see what i mean)

Also Reebok has undergone a huge change. This old logo has been around as long as I can remember. It now looks totally different!

This logo by Lipton would be quite hard to spot. The colours are the same, as well as the font. The only difference is that the text has moved slightly down the bottom. Check it out here:

Black & Decker much like Reebok has undergone a huge change. The change is actually also quiet dramatic as even the Font has changed.

Also Paypal. Personally I prefer the old one:

The Barcardi logo has changed quite dramatically also. The Bat is much more detailed and sinister.
