Seriously. I really like how Microsoft develops it's platform, giving new exciting features, but the design of a new start screen for phones is just plain ugly. I understand, that having consistent look across platforms is important, but what is the point of aesthetically perfect True Black lumia screens, if they will drop current design for the new one. That parallaxed under-the-icons design which we have now on WP 8.1 is genius by itself.
How to keep screen tidy, show all needed icons and yet allow user to customize it, keeping every part of the UI great? Current solution. Black background grid, white icons, and image of choice inbetween.
New design, while making things less strict and more alive, totally destroys idea of Metro UI, of clear, clean and organized ui.
I just hope they will leave current design as customizable option for the new W10.
