I might be in the minority, but ignoring the actual design, I’m hopeful that the trend of flat design is coming to an end. Wasn’t really a big fan of that.
I like skeumorphism done right over material design (the trend of making everything into basic shapes makes me attribute to graphic designer laziness over anything).
BUT, I wouldn’t want it to be like fashion where every 2 years it flips between flat, simple, material design being what’s hot then the next two years, complicated and glossy icons become the norm.
Not sure what you mean by this. I’m sure Google has issues but companies changing their design language to match current trends isn’t exactly a unique Google thing.

I’m a fan, especially the eyes got more personality to it

I’m with you, but it is a bit odd for android given the push for material design

Here, use this instead.
That’s actually a lot better :/
I don’t know how I feel about the move from a flat logo back to the old shaded, gradient 3D look, but I am definitely a fan of the font!
Is this official? Not sure about this.
As a longtime android user, thank God they’re finally listening and focusing on the most important problems!!!
Is this serious?? Or is this a meme??
Looks legit

Change for change’s sake. Fucking typical of Google, a terminally mismanaged corp if I ever saw one.

Did we have to put it on the face of the community? 😄
Giving up on Material already? But we are only half way through the You upgrade.
I get the feeling Google aren’t very joined up
What has Google ever done to make you think the left hand knows a right hand exists?
What is old is new again.
We are back to 3D logos? nice
Not really into the 3d aesthetic sorry, still too 2010ish for me
Are we really going for a revival of 00s skeuomorphism? 💀
