What’s this? Here you’ll find 387 “Mobile: Search Field” full-page screenshots annotated with research-based UX insights, sourced from Baymard’s UX benchmark of 93 ecommerce sites. (Note: this is less than 1% of the full research catalog.)
In testing we observe that the design of the search field itself directly alters if and how users search on an ecommerce site. The design of the search field often differs significantly on the mobile site, compared to the desktop site. On mobile sites the search field is often collapsed behind a search icon or located within the mobile ‘hamburger’ main menu, whereas on desktop the search field is typically directly visible in the page header.
