Liquid Glass feels like one of those tacky themes you’d download to a computer or Android phone, run for 10 minutes, then delete. I’m not some anti-change guy, I loved the flat UI when it came out, it felt sleek and modern yet professional and unpretentious.
It’s not the end of the world or anything, I don’t hate it, but my phone interface feels childish now where it didn’t before.
I honestly remember the reception being really positive. I think the problem with LG is that for many of us it reminds us of the old days when companies would add all sorts of tacky effects to these UIs to try and differentiate themselves. So much of what’s in LG just feels unnecessary. It reminds me of an old MySpace page.
