Tony Fadell used many examples in the video of noticing drive, and change. Humans go through habituation, and remember things that is a daily routine, or that happens everyday. Tony says that is not a bad thing. Habituation can also be bad though, because it keeps you from noticing the problems right in front of you. One example Tony mentions about noticing drive and change, is, to look broader. There are things that can lead up to the problem, and come after it, you need to keep an open mind. The second tip about noticing drive or change was to look closer. If something isn't working, you need to look closer, and think of other ways to fix the product. You can't just look at the obvious ways. The third tip Tony gave about drive, and change was to think younger. Young minds haven't been around as long, so they can find an easier way to fix it.
There have been a few times when a product wasn't well planned. I bought a pair of headphones and from the start, they didn't work. We had to bring them back to the store. Another example of when a product wasn't planned well was when I bought a bag, and a few times after a few uses, the zipper broke. Neither of these products were designed and planned well.
An example of how I see designs planned well is an IPhone. When you buy it, it comes with warranty and insurance, if something wasn't working. You wouldn't lose all that money that you just spent for the brand new phone. Also, the IPhone comes charged, and ready to use when you buy it. It's not fully charged, but you don't have to "charge it before use." I think the IPhone is a well planned design.
