- sudonim 14y agoYeah, overall the interactions and UI are really great. It's a shame the mail rendering isn't quite there.
- drivebyacct2 14y agoYeah, I can't believe they messed that up that badly, the zoomed in screenshot screams FIXME.
- shinratdr 14y agoWhat is beautiful about the Gmail app? All the grey? I'm all for clean design but I don't exactly see how it's cleaner or nicer than Mail.app.
- emehrkay 14y agoI use my nexus and the constant grey puts me off. Very little contrast, very little distinction between what is UI and what is scaffolding. If you're going to do a flat design, the elements have to separate themselves from one another -- things have to be distinct. This is a great example of a flat email interface with basically the same layout as Google's client: http://www.vanschneider.com/work/mail/ http://www.vanschneider.com/work/mail/ everything being #cecece and shifted one direction or the other isn't.
