Mobile web

62Fair

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture123
  1. Duplicate shipping badges — "// NOW SHIPPING FALL 2026" and "SHIPS FALL 2026" repeat the same message and push the headline down.
  2. Small Order pill — Primary CTA stays desktop-proportioned instead of a full-width thumb target.
  3. Uncollapsed nav row — Full desktop link row crammed across the top instead of a hamburger menu.

CTA

64Fair

Copy, size, verb, cost-feel — does the primary CTA earn the click?

Nori

Reachy Mini (Pollen Robotics / Hugging Face)

Problems

  • 'Order' feels costly pre-ship
  • nav-sized, no hero CTA
  • conflicts with Fall 2026 ship date
  • hero focal area has no action

Value props

68Fair

Title, subtitle, hero — do they sell the product's true value?

Nori’s headline vagueNORI A3The most capable robot for $1,688

Working

  • $1,688 price anchor is concrete
  • Hero shows the real product
  • YC-backed badge adds proof

Could improve

  • 'Most capable' names no task or outcome
  • Headline is just the product name
  • Duplicate shipping badges waste fold

Information hierarchy

72Fair

Does the design help or inhibit what the page is trying to say?

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture123
  1. Duplicate shipping badges — "// NOW SHIPPING FALL 2026" repeats the "SHIPS FALL 2026" pill directly below it, doubling label clutter above the headline.
  2. Order button placement — The only conversion CTA is a small top-right button, detached from the left-aligned headline stack where the eye actually lands.
  3. YC-backed badge — The bright orange badge is the highest-contrast element in the message stack, outranking the product name and value prop.
