7 User Experience Lessons We Can Learn from the iPhone

Given all the iPhone mania, I thought I might share this little presentation:

Context: Back in January, a week or so after the initial iPhone announcement, I was working on a presentation to introduce the ‘user experience’ group to our development team. As I started reading reading this Time magazine article, I was struck by just how perfect a case study the iPhone is for explaining the role of a user experience group. This formed the basis for my presentation, in which I cite ’7 Lessons About User Experience’ based on comments that article made regarding the (development of) the iPhone.

I’m sure I could add more UX lessons regarding hype, delays, design tradeoffs, and teasing people with ‘new’ features. But I’ll leave this presentation ‘as is’.
