Essentials of Mobile Handset Design (The Cambridge Wireless Essentials Series)As a UX professional I found the Essentials of Mobile Handset Design a really enjoyable and insightful read and at times really hard to put down... 'physically'! Having worked within the small screen and mobile design industry for the past 10 years as a UX Designer, I had slight trepidation that I would already know all there is to know about 'my world of mobiles and designing for them'. The authors really do take you on a journey, where I think for the most part, mobile users of today think that mobile phones only really came of age from 2007 with the launch of the iPhone and then 6 months after that with Samsung's alternative offering. Although this changed how we perceive mobiles to function, the journey had started way before then and this book really does cover at pace the story from the first mobile networks to popular devices through the last decade+ and how experiences have had to rapidly adapt with new technology.I urge to pick this book up and tag along for the ride in which Abhi Naha and Peter Whale so very cleverly immerse you right from the the first page. What I like about the book is that it really does leave you thinking about the future and what it holds it's users and where the industry will move us from here. So whether you're a professional or just interested in anything mobile and want to know more about how the pieces of the mobile telephony puzzle fit together... whether it be from handset technology, mobile design, or to a more grounded perspective from within the industry, you too will also find it hard to put down.
