Syntax Errors!

i'm getting stuck with syntax errors! Is there something here that I'm missing?

com/example/model/Brand.java 
package com.example.model;

public enum Brand {
    // Your code here
    JVC,
    Sony,
    Coby,
    Apple;

}

    Brand(String displayName) {
        mDisplayName = displayName;
    }
    public String getDisplayName() {
        return mDisplayName;
    }

You're almost there! For every element in the enum object you have to give that number of parameters; Then every method and variables should be inside the object. And don't forget to declare the mDisplayName String; In the end your case the code should look like this:

package com.example.model;

package com.example.model;

public enum Brand {
    // Your code here
    JVC("JVC"),
    SONY("Sony"),
    COBY("Coby"),
    APPLE("Apple");


    private String mDisplayName;

    Brand(String displayName) {
        mDisplayName = displayName;
    }
    public String getDisplayName() {
        return mDisplayName;
    }

}
