new App Store

On the iPhone, it looks bad. It looks better on a larger screen, such as the iPad.

I could see that. It definitely does not belong on the iPhone. From what I've seen of Android, it looks it's Market. Again, like a bad webpage.
 
When I first loaded Beta 2 earlier today it had the same exact app store design as Beta 1, which im sure is what your all are referring too! After a phone reboot I noticed my app store has not reverted back to the old look from iOS 5 with a lot more black coloring.

Not sure why this but has anyone else seen this happen?

Same here.
 
I think the design of a lot of the built in apps clearly lend themselves to the rumored taller screen of the next iPhone. Things simply look "cut off" in many instances, such as the new app store.

I think it's a bad choice though...the only people who will have a nice view are those that buy new iPhones?
 
This picture was earlier this afternoon of the app store in its newer design

Mine has since gone back to Post 10's picture. Mine only stayed the second version for about 20 minutes. I rebooted my phone and it was back after.

Not sure what the deal is.

Yeah I edited my post and meant that my App Store looks like the first picture you posted. I haven't seen the my App Store look like the second picture you posted.

Maybe Apple is doing some tweaking behind the scenes.
 
I think the new design looks good.

Also, the new style for the buttons on the bottom, which I think we've also seen in the Music app and maybe others, is nicer. I like the pressed look.

This is a perfect example of what I was talking about. Clearly the new iPhone will have two full rows of apps visible. It just looks and feels a little cramped on the 4S (and by extension, everything else I guess).
 
Dont like how the search is still a button at the bottom.

Think it should be integrated in the header like in Notes. Swipe down to reveal search bar.
