"Finally, someone got it right"
someone got right what? show me the same concept coded and I will believe you. I mean, it's so easy to make these silly concept on illustrator or Photoshop or CorelDraw or anything, but do you know how it takes to code what they think it's a good concept? it's not like it's impossible but it's like drawing an airplane and say "oh yeah it's easy to build" you should go and try to make an Operating System, specially if we are talking about making one platform from an operating system that was 40+ million lines of code.
All what I saw in his concept anyway, it's just the same crap all over again. is that right? only because YOU think it's right?
the world is not only about you or what you are used for using Windows Phone (it's not like I don't use it anyway)
why the browser address bar on bottom? just like on Windows 8, you have to hunt for it. because it would go up whenever you display other options.
why the hamburger on the bottom? don't you see it looks horrible? "one use phone hand me wants" well, I wouldn't kill me to move a little my hand and just press the bottom at the top, which looks fine. oh wait no.. this person is removing them, so no hamburger buttons, why? some people say "android here android there" but that kind of buttons have existed for years.
The toggles? what's wrong with the current ones? at least Microsoft shows, not everything must be squared on Windows Phone.
Those "interactive live tiles" it's nothing new. Microsoft has already shown them.. but again, making a pretty photo is not the same as coding. Same with multiple accounts, yeah cool thing, but add that to the space each user will take. and all that stuff. yes Phones are limited spaced with 8gb storage and such.
"Windows button as notification light"? well, news windows phone don't even have buttons. so it's pointless. people should understand that most phones will not have them anymore on WP.
and a typical answer you can get, if you want customization, go Android. I would rather get a nice release with not hundred shades of gray scale backgrounds and get nice features that will really make One Platform come true.
you might dislike it, but it would be stupid to build two totally different UIs for desktop and phones only because people can't move a little their phones. "but one hand me use want" yes... but nobody forced you to be lazy and buy a big phone you don't want to use with two hands. get a 4" phone. if you want to only use hand hand all the time, while you are busy (making who knows...) with your other hand.
I still wonder. Someone who got what right? the same pathetic complains that I read everyday on comments section even if it's not related to the article?
Like it or not, Windows is going One Platform and developers will not care to make two layouts only because people want to use their phone with one hand phone.
just look at this concept, crappy All-the-same-All-the-time concept, what about left hand users. those buttons are on the right, how are left handed users are support to use it with one hand??
Maybe Microsoft should make three layouts, one for desktop, one for phones right hand users and then left ones. and then inverted for people who like to take photos on the mirror, and heavy interface with all 3d effects for the ones that don't care about battery life, and other with just a powershell because they are super power users. and if I don't get what I want, I will complain.
Again. Microsoft is making one platform, so like it or not, they are trying to find a middle thing for the kind of users that will use touch or mouse or keyboard.
So all this "buttons to bottom" talk, is just not going to happen. because if people complained about how inconsistent windows is, well, apparently some people don't care about it in the end.
I hope this person of the concept, codes a photos app, calendar app, onedrive app, a browser, and uses what he thinks should be correct on Windows Phone. let him code and design the layout. maybe he will be popular as Rudy and the savior of squared pictures and killer of ellipses and the savior or squared toggle buttons, and just the savior of all Windows Phone design.
Be thankful I am in good mood, if not 3 hours more and I would be writing. but I am ready to drop my Microphone
