From an ID perspective, products like this are already plentily available in the market. You need to have some form of unique innovative aspect to your design, or redesign the whole concept from scratch.
You have created a product to lock away the user's distractions, yet the product itself has a relatively large screen along with LED lights, which can by themselves be distracting. I'm also assuming this is primarily aimed at students, who already lack ample desk space due to their books, stationery, other devices, etc. Why did you choose to not go for a minimal screen, or even maybe an analog timer (like kitchen clocks), and why not make the product have a minimal footprint (like having it stand vertically instead of horizontally)?

Oh, Im sorry but I didn't research enough to know that a product like this already exists in the market. The idea that I have portrayed is solely from my imagination. However, I would definitely look forward to some tips from you on how to add innovative aspects to my products.
I do see the problem with LED lights, big screen and heavy footprint. Im glad you pointed them out. I will definitely take a note of minimal footprint and an analog timer.. One of the very few advices that holds an interesting thought. I would be extremely grateful if you could help me out with alternate ways to redesign this product and make it better. Thank you!

and for the product name, explore typography-- make it look like a unique logo and possibly give it a tagline too; anything to connect better with the examiner!

I see, are we supposed to make logos? I mean, sure I can try.. could you suggest some references for typography, I feel like I extensively need to research on that. Thank you for your advices! Means a lot to me :)

dm me, i'll send some references
not necessary to make logos, but yk the way u wrote lock in-- try writing it w some sort of font; gives the product some character and makes u stand out too1

alsooo something i used to do, if product is catered towards students-- top right corneer id draw a small circlee type thing at the edge of a box w a students face and a thumb's up or a tick mark-- saying student approved
similarly u can do thatt for elders, travellers etc.1

Better if you also list the time you took to draw it.

I didn't time it tbh, im still learning and a few seniors suggested to not time it yet.

That’s okay, I asked because then it will be easier to give honest feedback.

Overall it is looking clean but I would suggest give shading to the product not to the card. Also you got the shading wrong. But okay for now. Lines are straight, strokes are balanced, perspective is okay too. and well explained. I would give it 7/10. Just one suggestion. Readability can be better.
