Merge User experience with Quality of Experience?

It has been suggested that UX and QoE pages should be merged. I do not support this idea. While QoE is related to UX, both terms are in use and used a bit differently. The current description of UX is about using an interactive system, while the description of QoE seems to be covering a wider area of all touch points between a customer and a company. In this sense, QoE is closer to Customer experience than User experience. -- VirpiRoto (talk) 10:19, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Totally incorrect merge suggestion IMO. I'm amazed the suggestion has survived this long. QoE is more of an engineering term trying to quantify things, I'm not sure I've ever actually heard it used by any UX/HCI professionals. --99.152.9.49 (talk) 16:18, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

They are totally different concepts around the same central theme. The quality of the experience is what is measured by a User Experience Engineer. It would be similar to trying to put a ruler in the same category as length. RonUSMC (talk) 19:39, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

• Disagree slightly different concepts QoE being also similar to QoS Widefox; talk 14:06, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
• Agree UX and QoE should not be merged because each is a big subject. These are fields of research and industry that apply to a broad range of information technology hardware and software. JohnPritchard (talk) 16:27, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
