32 design examples manually annotated by Baymard researchers

What’s this? Here you’ll find 32 annotated “Search Results” design examples from Baymard’s UX benchmark of 60 major e-commerce sites. (Note: this is less than 1% of the full research catalog.)

The mobile Search Results page differs significantly from the desktop results page. In usability testing we see that some of the mobile simplification often causes issues for users. It’s particular difficult to achieve the right balance for the product list item design on mobile; on one hand ensuring enough information and large thumbnails so users avoid opening irrelevant products, while on the other hand keeping them condensed enough to allow users to establish an overview.

Besides these mobile Search Results we’ve also benchmarked the desktop versions; see the 60 desktop Search Results examples.
Our research team is currently conducting a new large-scale mobile usability study that focuses on the mobile homepage, navigation, search, product lists, and product pages. Note that we do observe the current mobile guidelines and underlying user behavior still applies, despite some of the screenshots looking dated. The new mobile study findings are already partially released in Baymard Premium and are expected to be fully released Q2 2019.
