Windows Phone 10: Welcome to the Future (Concept)

Too good to be realist !
Don't like hamberger menus that pop a half page on the screen;
The music app would be better if it was full screen, without the small bar at the top (I still don't know why some apps as Instagram are made like that)
Anyway I love the design and the environment of this UI !
Bravo
 
It looks very polished. But there are some serious problems with the icons (The same goes for Microsofts own leaked icons (Build 9201, fbl_awesome etc).

- They will be a nightmare for people with poor vision.

- Some aren't instantly recognizable.

- There will be inconsistency again. We got rid of the Aero/Vista/WM6 look with WP7 and Windows 8. Now there will be conflicting graphical styles yet again. You can't expect every app developer to update their icons to this new style. Granted, not every single developer adhered to the metro icon style. But alot of them did.

- The infographic icon style of original Metro has become ubiquitous. Alot of modern websites seem to follow this style.

- The hollowing of alot of the icons do not bring anything useful to the icons. They just look like that for the sake of being "pretty". Wasn't that the reason for ditching skeumorphism in the first place?
 
A controversial one. Definitely shines in certain things but Settings in OneDrive-styled design... meh.
 
Wow, that's just plain bad...good to know it's just a concept that will never happen.
 
Tbh, I kinda like the semi-opaque tiles. It could work the way transparent tiles do now. So developers don't have to add any new code if they already support transparent tiles. Its always better to have more options than no options.
