It's incredible the amount of videos that try to explain this difference and fail miserably. Kudos on the crystal clear answer, keep up the great work!

Quick: ux/ui is more the visual/technical piece of a project, and product design is implementing those with the business pov/idenity focussed.

As a Producr Designer, we also look after the vision of the project, making a roadmap how the product will evolve in a year or in next 5 years.

Thank you. This is going to be a reminder for me to what my scope of work should include. Sometimes I just got lost.

[kamalsomani]

[AnastasiaSound]

Finally I get the difference! Thank you for a very clear and well paced explanation 👏

[OlegLyutov]

Absolutely spot on! There are so many misconceptions about the Product Designer role and the true meaning ends up being lost.

[nayamamielle]

Finally a video that explains the difference so clearly. Thanks!

[MrKodsine]

This video us aligned with my understanding as well 👍I would add that the Product designer should build more domain/industry knowledge about the product compared to the UI/UX role. And, they should have more ownership of their work and see it as a long-term commitment, not just a one-off design exercise

[green--apple]

I've had discussions about this with other designers who insist it's all the same. Someone I know who works in one of the FAANG companies told me they're transitioning to calling the UI/UX Design role Product Design instead. It's kind of a bummer that people don't use definitions in practice.
