Product designers are in charge of the entire product design, which includes visuals, functionality, and business considerations. They work with cross-functional teams. They must possess adequate industrial design, user interface design, and user research knowledge.
On the other hand, UX designers focus on creativity and usability when optimizing user interactions. They are particularly skilled in user research, psychology, and interaction design.
Organizations often use the two titles interchangeably, but the main difference between a “product designer” and a “UX designer” is their work environments. UX designers are best suited to project-based requirements, while product designers are meant for agile product-based environments that are continuously innovating. Though both contribute to user-centered products, product designers have a broader work scope, while UX designers focus on building seamless user experiences.
