Totally. I'd rather have the music control panel come first. I interact with that a lot more than the other controls.
Got a tip for us?

Hands-On With iOS 10's Overhauled Lock Screen

I understand why you could prefer swipe to unlock, but I don't really see how pressing a button involves "less hand movement and travel" than putting your finger on a screen and sliding it from left to right
Cheers for that.

You don't understand . As its redesigned and looks better , there is a lot of guys here that do not want to get caught when a message arrives from that other girl, and a panicking !!! Feel for them
None of them understand that maybe Macrumors have enabled the widgets to actually have something to display in the video after all. I mean what's a demo without something to show? If there was an empty lockscreen someone would complain about that as well.
you just have to slide the notification right to left in ios9 to reply when it's locked
yes you can. I reply to messages all the time from the lockscreen, without ever having to unlock my phone with a pin or touchID
probably because of some of your settings. or, maybe the app you're trying to do it with won't allow it. I'm referring to the stock messaging app (but I think some 3rd party messaging apps have it too).

The Volume slider was way too close to the RW, Play and FF buttons. The few times I tried to adjust the volume in CC I ended up stopping the song. I stopped using that interface all together. This seems like it would eliminate that problem for some.
My Mac Pro is 2008, so I can't upgrade to Sierra - but is the iOS 10 update for devices linked or have any links between the it and Sierra? (For example, when they updated 'notes', it was also linked with the desktop notes update to share between devices).
Have you used it yet? It appears to technically be no different than before except you have to press the home button to unlock it, either by finger print or passcode, instead of swiping.
I was playing around with mine yesterday trying to imagine what it will be like (I'm on 9.3.3). Seems natural enough -- swipe up, thumb is already there, swipe left, have music controls. I agree it's an extra step that will initially be annoying. I wish you could set the music pane as the default and the settings pane as the swipe; seems the phone could do that automatically if the music is playing.
I will be happy having a dedicated pane though. Right now things can easily get to tight (especially on the lock screen) to have good control. Ply/pause, forward/back, volume, and scrubbing are just too close together in the current structure.

Tried it on the first release but not since. I'll look into it. On outlook mostly because of work.
Whats the difference? If you don't have a passcode someone can just slide across and have access, iOS10 allows someone to press the home button (as far as it stands right now) and have access when a passcode isn't present.
It should be okay, if it behaves like the springboard. For example, swipe to home screen 3, lock phone, unlock phone and still on screen3. Will be really annoying if it always default to page 1 on swipe up.
Who can still hark back to the days when IOS was both stylish and intuitive? Now it seems there's more menus and layers than Gordon Ramsay's Cake Restaurants!
Ah, the days of flip phones where there were just the good old number buttons...yeah, those were the days.Who can still hark back to the days when IOS was both stylish and intuitive? Now it seems there's more menus and layers than Gordon Ramsay's Cake Restaurants!

Try it yourself and see. A swipe involves a quick gentle movement and then the hand is just under the keypad. In fact even with short fingers you can pretty much keep your hand where it is and let your fingers do the walking.
With the current set up. The user has to physically press down the home button at the very bottom of the screen then raise your hand, move it up to the middle of the screen to enter the code.
The latter involves more movement.
