PRODUCT ANALYSIS BASED ON USER EXPERIENCE (UX)



PRODUCT ANALYSIS BASED ON USER EXPERIENCE (UX)

Based on my reading in this chapter, I have chosen the Universal USB Backup Power Bank by Pineng as one of the handheld device as a part of this assignment. In this writing, I will elaborate about how this Power Bank has been designed and I will also elaborate about how the user is meant to interact with it.

                        Nowadays, Power Bank is one of the most important device that has been invented by the inventor. Long time ago, people can live without the existence of this power supply, but due to the development of the technology, Power Bank or backup power supply for phones and other devices such as speaker or any other small devices that can support this type of power supply are now become one of the most important thing for all the user out there no matter where they need to travel especially when using their phone.

                        This Power Bank is the most important thing to have if you are one of the most addicted phone user because the longer you are using your phone, the more power you need to prepare for your phone battery. The usage for the battery of your phone is the most important things that need to be aware because you should not let your phone battery draining if you are going to use your phone in a very long period of time.
                        Therefore, that is why this devices such as Power Bank was created by the inventor. To design a product or a devices, the creator or the inventor should think about the usability of the product, its functionality, the aesthetics of the product, the content, the look and feel of the product or the devices, and last but not least the sensual and emotion appeal of the product itself. In my humble opinion, based on the device or product that I have chosen which is the Universal USB Backup Power Bank by Pineng, I think that this device has all the criteria that was mention above.

                        It is because the usability of this device is very great and convenient, due to the simple ways of using it without the need of extra knowledge to handle it. Which can also be called as a plug and play device. The user did not have to learn hard on how to use and handle this device. The functionality of this product or device is very intelligence because it can avoid the user’s phone battery form draining or dead. So, we can say that the content of this device is very pleasurable.

                        As for the aesthetics, look and feel and also the sensual and emotion appeal of this device is extremely user friendly. This is because, it physical appearance is not too big, and also not to small, so it is very easy to carry and easy to handle. So, I am going to elaborate on the most important parts of this device which is usability goals and its user experience goals. There are a lot of usability goals on the usage of this device which include effective to use, efficient to use, safe to use, having good utility, easy to learn and last but not least easy to remember how to use.

                        Based on my experience on using this device, the most relevant usability for this device is safe to use. One of the main reason why I said so is because, when we are using a Power Bank while using our phone, it will protect your phone battery and it will extend your battery life. It is because we as a user did not know and did not understand how our phone battery degrades. Therefore, by using a Power Bank, we can at least save our phone and also its battery. It is not that save or at least we can also say that it is very dangerous if we are using our phone while charging using a direct charger. Therefore, an inventor has created this device to enhance the life span of our phone battery and also the safety of our own risk.

                        We had listen to the media about an unsafe situation on using a charger while using our phone. It can explode, it can also make your phone battery life span become shorter and also indeed it make your phone battery increase in a nick of time but it is not a safe ways to use and handle your phone which charging. Although, a lot of people who is not patience and wanted their phone to have a lot of battery without have to wait for hours, but by using a Power Bank, we can avoid fast charging, we can also avoid our phone battery draining and we should know that we can extend the life span of our phone battery and it is also very important for our own safety.

                        Last but not least, I will elaborate on the user experience goals that I think will be the most relevant in evaluating the device. Although there are a lot of benefits that we can gain by using a Power Bank and it also gave us a lot of good things toward our other devices such as phone, but, there are also this one undesirable aspects of this device which is unpleasant. The main reason why I said so is because let us think about we are using our phone while connecting and charging using a Power Bank while we are relaxing, there are this USB cable that giving us an uncomfortable situation. This is because, we are using our phone, and we also have to put the Power Bank near us and also need to hold the phone while connecting thru the cable. So, in my humble opinion, I think that the inventor can think about creating or at least upgrading the Power Bank technologies in the future. What I meant by upgrading the Power Bank is we can create or invent a Power Bank which does not need to connect to a cable or plug in a cable to charge the phone but we can use a Bluetooth instead. Therefore, inventor can at least try to invent a Bluetooth Connectivity Power Bank or we can at least name it as a Bluetooth Device Power Bank.
