So far. I'm not liking the new interface. Looks too much like an iPhone to me!

I haven't had a chance to play with it much when I downloaded it traveling and busy today but a few comments from using it...

I don't like the weather widget anymore. I don't like how it displays info looks weird if too small like a pill and at various sizes there is just to much blank space. So I removed it. I'll just look outside my window to check weather.

Don't like the pull down for notification and then separate pulldown for quick panel. Fortunately you can change it to the previous pull down to TOGETHER for both and pull further for quick panel.

The brightness slider in quick panel... do we really need a non-removeable dark mode button to the right of it??

Actually looking at it further, I really do not like the quick panel...

For volume, why did they remove the ability to edit buttons and be able to put a dedicated mute button??

I used that mute button all the time when i just need to swipe down and hit mute.

Now I have to zero in on the volume slider and hit the mute button to the right and I've mistakenly hit the dark mode button a couple of times already.

Note: I just realized changing the panel pull down to TOGETHER does bring the old line of buttons back on the top including the mute button. Still don't like having a non-removeable volume slider and so close to the brightness slider.

And why a non-removeable volume slider?? Isn't that what the volume buttons on the side are for??

They let you remove the Device Control and Media Output buttons when you swipe down... but they dont let you remove the four options at the bottom of the panel... Nearby Devices, Home, Smart View and Modes from the panel??

It really is like iOS now... you really can't customize like you want otherwise I'd be able to change all of the above.

I'll get use to it but it's a lame upgrade.
