The crisps bags filled half way are actually good design. If they were fully filled, the crisps would all crack while in shipping or in handling.

Fantastic video! Great content, music, shots, pacing... very well-made. I noticed the gray progress bar at the bottom. I can't help but address it from a functional design standpoint, given the focus of the video. If someone is interested in skimming to use as little time as possible, they will probably hover their cursor and can already see the progress through individual chapters, making the gray bar redundant. Speaking as someone who planned to watch the whole video, I found it more distracting than helpful. It took the focus off the video itself and made me think about what I have to do after it's over, which isn't what I'm looking for. I can't fault you for trying something new!

I agree. although clever and clean, i found it to pull me out of the video. Mostly it's redundant as the timeline already exists on youtube. Not worth your extra effort to do this.

@chillax1969 Жыл бұрын

Appreciated this video. Got me thinking which is always fun: Are Apple innovators or do they simply take recent technologies and do them better than those first to market? The sleek aluminium design of your old MacBook Pro arguably has an enduring timeless aesthetic. The same can not be said for the models that came after with poor keyboards and no SD slot. The endless cycle of obsolescence and upgrades of phones and most electronic devices is also hardly sustainable. Our old landline lasted decades. Will they ever build a smart phone or smart watch to last? Although some of the dumb phones, for those who want to escape social media, may be built to last. Finally, perhaps the essence of good design is functionality, durability, and being aesthetically pleasing. With some of the other principles being derivatives of these. Thanks DT.

Love this video, but the thin bar on the bottom is distracting, and to another viewer I was watching it with, stressful. It doesn’t seem to add useful value. It’s fine for ad segments (see Alex, the French engineer/home cook), but for segments we want to watch, being constantly reminded of how much time is left removes focus from the video.

You bought the iPhone 12 mini?? Now I fell less guilty about me spending money on this product🤣🤣🤣

@SpiritOfTwilight 3 жыл бұрын

While I love the design of Apple products I find that the most recent units, both Mac and iPhone, dependability is questionable. My M1 Mac Mini died after owning it for only 4 months, which forced me to go out and purchase a PC, since Apple couldn't get me into a store for a 'Genius' appointment for over a week and a replacement. My iPhone 12 mini also had trouble connecting to Bluetooth and Apple Play in my car. Apple sent me in for a replacement, which I was denied one after consulting with Tech Support 4 times. I was advised that the iPhone wasn't the problem and that my new car, my Apple watch and my wireless ear buds were all to blame over the iPhone. Needless to say, I no longer own any Apple products as they have become the sure sign of bargain basement reliability even though their products exterior design looks flawless. I miss the old Apple products that were once dependable and worth the money.

1:04 So Apple didn’t innovate on its design but just adapted and perfected what came before? 2:07 I disagree with this part, a product may be slightly less effective than a pure efficiency version at whatever task it was designed for, but if it still looks good that doesn’t make it bad design. After all, a concrete rectangular prism that is well insulated is much better at housing someone in a cold area than a beautifully designed log cabin.

Never heard of these principles before, very interesting. Principles 1 and 7 seem to be at odds with each other a little. I'd say that the success of the iPod was less to do with the design of it and more to do with how easy it made it to manage a music library and to buy music. The same for the smartphone; it's the applications that make the smartphone a must-have, not its design. I agree with you that removing things like sd card slots from laptops makes them less useful and so is a bad design choice.

@natechumley5129 2 жыл бұрын

I was with you until principle 7. Minimalism is the new trend. Go back a decade it was something else and so on and so on. Maybe it's because you are fully emersed in one that you don't think you are in one. But it wouldn't really take me 5 minutes to find 5 other videos saying something along the lines of less is more in a muted color home.

It's a shame Apple is abandoning these principles with their latest computers. For a well-designed device to be long-lasting and environmentally friendly it should be repairable. Apple's obsession with thinness has resulted in a new generation of computers that will need entire logic board replacements (expensive financially and environmentally) for what would have previously been a simple repair that many users could have done themselves.

@ProuvaireJean 3 жыл бұрын

Apple is not as innovative as most people think. What Apple is very good at is taking products pioneered by other companies, like MP3 players or smartphones, then refining these and mainstreaming them.
