Comment on Apple announces iOS 26 with Liquid Glass redesign
latenightnoir@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 days agoI mean… look, I’m genuinely not trying to be a sour asshole, but why did we need this? How is this furthering the development of smartphone tech? It’s, like… sure, pretty graphics are nice, but do we really need ray-tracing on our phones? (I know it’s not ray-tracing, but you get my point)
I don’t actually like this redesign tbh, but come on, people do care about design and UX.
Nobody said we need pretty UX design, it’s just nice to have, and that’s fine. Not everything needs to be furthering the development of XYZ. Beauty is fine, aesthetics is fine.
It’s just a UI update, you know, like literally every other OS does periodically?

It’s what happens when they run out of useful things to improve but still need to announce something to make people think they’re getting an upgrade.
