  1. In my opinion, customer benefit is something you can get from the product attribute, so I think in your item 2 the CUSTOMER BENEFIT is:
    + Convenient ( because this product is super light and slim; easily portable).
    + Fashionable ( beacause the product's fashion).

  2. In my opinion, I think that Product Attributes are fresh, delicious as many men love it, just like women like fashion

  3. In item 1, you said that "In 1997 when the technology industry was rapidly developing in the world". I don't think technology is an industry
