Interesting, as Sony is usually very bad at UX (PlayMemories, choppy PS4 dashboard etc).

- ekianjo 7y agoSony is not "one company", they have tons of independent branches/divisions working separately on different projects, so the failure of one group does not infer the failure of another.
- beatgammit 7y agoThen why is it that every Sony product I've used feels clunky? Perhaps it is an issue with their approach to QA than any of the individual teams. If so, I don't expect this app to be any different. Regardless, if people associate your brand with "clunky", they'll find reasons to dislike even a quality app. You really need to be consistent across your product lines to benefit from brand recognition.
- OrgNet 7y agoI boycott Sony for other reasons but Uber is also pretty evil.
- ekianjo 7y ago> Then why is it that every Sony product I've used feels clunky? Because good design is rare in general? Most products are designed very poorly, and big corporations are no exception.
- lowtto 7y agobig corps moves much slower, and they have bigger teams. its like food with too much seasonings.
- astrange 7y agoSony cameras are pretty good… Japanese companies tend to accept a lot of complexity and also love paranoid bureaucratic form UIs. There might be one page of fields, then a second page to show you them over again to check for typos, then a third page of disclaimers to shame you in case you still made a mistake… because they're not going to refund you. Sony's pretty good about this actually, but buying anything on the Nintendo shop takes 5+ clicks even if you saved your credit card.

- dillonmckay 7y agoI was going to ask about this... Sony’s software culture has always been a bit lacking, morally, or otherwise.
