I personally hate the blue tint. The **** is wrong with you apple? And the silver in the music app looks like ****.

I seriously think they should bring the app store look across the entire phone.
 
I don't mind most of the colours individually, but as a whole it just lacks any sense of consistency I expect from Apple, and kinda bugs my OCD! There seems no reason some apps are one colour and some another. And why does the status bar sometimes go blue? The most ugly part IMO is the new dialer though, which looks like something from HTC Sense...
 
It's a first beta release - of course there are going to be inconsistencies in the UI as not everything will have been updated yet!

I would understand that if they were moving towards one look and only some things have been updated to reflect that, but it seems it's pulling in multiple directions. I guess they could be trying different things, but just seems there's no 'unified vision' from what I've seen. I hope (it probably will be) sorted by October :D:rolleyes:
 
It's awful the music app looks like crap and the new app seems pointless and why get rid of google maps. Im staying with ios 5.1.1 until iOS 6.1 or 6.0.1 comes out.
 
I hate the new dialer, it looks cheap and ugly. Bring back the original black one please.

I also don't like the new appstore look, looks dark and dirty and not as clean and simplistic as iOS 5.

I do love the new music player interface with the metal button, looks clean.
 
some of the updated looks are nice,
others need some work.

i think once we get closer to GM, all of the UIs will fall into place.

I'm half and half

app store, and music app are nice
 
The only visual change I don't care for is the color adaptive status bar. I fear this will make the red "call" and blue "hotspot" status reminders "blend in" in some cases.

Why do people keep throwing around "beta"? I dont think the inconsistency in the UI design is a "bug" that needs to be fixed. And I highly doubt between now and the phone's release we're going to see major changes to iOS's UI look and feel.
 
WP7 and Android ICS: Cohesive design throughout the OS = Stupid, boring, lame.
Apple iOS6: Design varies from App to App, not consistent at all = Brilliant, innovative, trendsetter!

You guys crack me up.
 
Beta means in development still. That means the UI isn't complete yet. Which means the "basic tenants of user interface design" haven't been fully implemented.

Beta means design has completed and they are looking for bugs to fix, Which means the "basic tenants of user interface design" have been thrown out.

Are you being paid to crap on literally every thread on this forum? Seriously man, every one I open, there you are with another inane, negative comment. From what I've read you now use an Android phone now anyway? Get a life.
