Practical activity 2: Product Management Course: How does Apple create positive UX?

Let’s take a look at how Apple creates great examples of products that create positive user experiences and set the standard for similar products offered by competitors:

  • The iPhone 5 smartphone used a revolutionary design, with its all-metal case and glass front, giving users a highly usable, quality product that fulfilled the basic functions of a smartphone with the desirable features of luxury and ease of use. [1]
  • Apple’s 2012 MacBook Air set new standards for laptop aesthetics by enabling the Apple logo to light up as well as offering users the world’s slimmest laptop design at the time. It left Windows laptops playing catch-up for many years, particularly in the elements of desirable ‘look and feel’. [2]

Apple continues to ensure that creating delight for user experience is present in all its products by setting standards for product design.

  1. It’s easy to navigate. It has features that excites me like its camera, video quality, means of sharing information via airdrop. Data services are also faster with iPhones. It is also very durable.

    Its battery can drain quickly especially if you are constantly on line. Also data usage is high bevause of the quality and speed it provides

  2. iPhones which happen to be one of Apple’s revolutional product stands out greatly and to me, its camera has it for me.

    However, its battery is no encouraging like that of Samsung and it seems as they upgrade it becomes no much better.

  3. my bad experience is on Samsung phone when the screen broke the cost o replacement is almost the cost of getting new one…but i love their camera quality

  4. iPhones and Airpods are rated A+ for user experience in my books. The downsides are the incompatibility with other devises like with Bluetooth connections.

    The battery life is also another sore point.

  5. My experience with infinix mobile phone is the longevity it has, and component do not just get damaged for no reason.

  6. Apple products are truly a complete package in terms of the user experience and the inbuilt luxury. Only if they can improve on the battery lifespan then the Apple product will be incomparable to other global phones like Oppo, Redmi, Vivo, Huawei, Samsung, and Nokia when it comes to battery lifespan.

  7. One thing I love about apple products is the graphics and camera the user experience is cool, but always battery issue.

  8. Tecno and infinix phone are genuine product.
    But the battery of tecno phone last longer more than infinix for sometimes that when you charge a infinix phone one of the things you will discover is at the battery we’re going to go down but when you use techno battery capacity is so strong and you think for a very good start and with a very good from one of the things you need is first of all the battery capacity of the phone then talking about the future’s I techno has a very good future or the difference between techno and infinix is that infinix asked more of smart storage for all hops and devices now to protect you from scammers activities

  9. My experience with apple has been amazing. I would say the only issues I have with apple is not allowing external storage and not having strong battery.

  10. My experience with Apple product i quite fair. My major issue with them is the fact that they do not allow external storage unlike other brands.
