The project goal was to provide user testing for a holiday launch of an immersive T-Mobile augmented reality (AR) experience. Through user insights and usability feedback, the AR experience was iterated on to be ready for a quick turnaround product launch.
With on-site sessions at Times Square in New York City, our team of UX designers and testers provided multiple rounds of testing and feedback of different beta versions of the AR experience.
We adopted an iterative and user-centric approach, emphasizing meticulous testing to meet the needs of those interacting with the T-Mobile AR experience. By conducting on-site usability testing with expert commentary, we ensured our alignment with the client's objectives. Our research strategy revolved around constant iteration, providing user insights to help refine and optimize the product for a successful launch and long-term impact.
We conducted rigorous on-site usability testing at Times Square, New York City, for T-Mobile's AR experience. By analyzing user interactions with different beta versions, we identified and addressed pain points, ensuring an optimal and user-friendly AR experience aligned with T-Mobile's commitment to cutting-edge innovation.
Accounting for a diverse user base, we focused on cross-device functionality in the usability testing of T-Mobile's AR experience. This ensured seamless performance across smartphones, delivering a consistent and engaging user experience as part of our comprehensive approach to project success.

With millions of people passing through the area, the project was able to garner the eyes of a plethora of users and promote T-Mobile’s brand awareness while advancing the field of immersive experiences.
