外国人モニターによる日本製品レポート Vol.23 2009年6月配信

========================================================

No.69

●Natinality:Canadian
●Birth Year:20's
●Sex:Male

●Product Name:Mobile Game
●Good / bad :
The primary advantage of this portable device is the range of available features (gaming, video, music, wireless, etc). With these features the entertainment options are nearly endless and can be enjoyed at home or while away. Also compared to similar portable devices the screen quality and size is excellent. For disadvantages, one is the battery life which only lasts approximately 2 hours during intensive operations such as gaming. Secondly compatible video formats are still very limited. Finally the device is difficult to operate with only one hand (such as w
hile standing on a train or bus).

●Improving idea:
Primarily I believe the product could be improved by addressing the disadvantages sited above. A longer battery life would definitely be a welcome improvement. As well as increasing the number of compatible video formats. Changing the design to allow for one-handed operation however, could be tricky due to the device size and the number of buttons. Numerous game types require the use of two hands for efficient control thus changing to a one-handed design may in fact present more disadvantages than advantages. Also since it is a portable device the size and weight could continue to be reduced.

No.70

●Natinality:American
●Birth Year:30's
●Sex:Female

●Product Name:Plum and kelp flavored tea
●Good / bad :
The great thing about this product is it's taste. It salty and sweet without being too overpowering. The flavour has a distinct pickled plum taste that sets it apart from regular konbu tea. It's conveniently available in powerdered form both in a can and in pre-packaged single serving packs. Being both low in calories and caffine, it's great for curing that just-before-bedtime craving.
The only disadvantage of this product is that it is very high in sodium and as such I would not recommend drinking more than one cup at a time, as the drinker will only become thirstier.

●Improving idea:
The best way to improve this product would be to lower the sodium content. While its salty taste is a major feature, it could turn some people away from the drink for both taste and health reasons as well.

No.71

●Natinality:Philippines
●Birth Year:20's
●Sex:Female

●Product Name:Body wash
●Good / bad :
It keeps the skin moisturized, but I sometimes get the feeling that my skin does not get cleaned very well by this body wash.

●Improving idea:
I would prefer a body wash that is milder, suitable for acne-prone skin.
