In many of the examples the new UI doesn't actually show true liquid glass but just bad blurry recreations of the basic shapes of it or even better contrast on the icons on the iOS 26 screenshots. Some of it is clearly a matter of taste (spacing in Photos for example) and iOS 26 often has the bigger hitbox for input elements. I wouldn't want to use an iPhone right now regardless until they fixed all the inconsistencies, with the changing Safari ui elements for example.
