I’m curious to see how some of this stuff feels in real life. The aggressive use of transparency was something Apple and Microsoft intentionally moved away from many years ago. It creates clutter and readability problems.
I’ll bet money that they dial some of this stuff back after getting beta feedback.
Another user shared this screenshot in the other post about the new design language, and it definitely has readability problems when there's too much on the display at once.
I only have a work iPhone but man, control center has always looked bad to me. Then they just dialed it up to 11 with the transparency and colors.
Usability looks absolutely awful with this update.
The 9:41 clock display they keep showing on the lock screen seems like it's less readable than just a solid colour, but yeah, would need to use an iPhone with this before I can make any judgement.
