I got my 4.4.3 update a couple of days ago, and I'm not real happy with the new look of the dialer. What do you think? (pictures shown for those who don't have the update yet)
I like the speed dial
Just wish I didn't have to click all contacts. It would be better to just scroll down to see all contacts
Does the new dialer go into landscape mode? That's all I care about...
I'm not really fond of the new color scheme (I prefer a black background), or the fact that contacts on the speed dial screen are now shown in a tile format instead of a list format, with no apparent way to change it. I have relatively few contacts with anything but the stock silhouette icon, so larger icons in a tile format does nothing for me.
It really bothers me when someone in development imposes their own personal preferences on a UI thinking it will widely be considered an improvement. Aside from that though, it bothers me is this change to a white background on a device with an AMOLED screen. The previous UI with a black background was more battery friendly.

The speed dial screen had a white background, but the dialer background was black.The previous version of the dialer had a white background too.
