Isn't the calculator example still skeumorphic?

• hcarvalhoalves 13y ago
  > A skeuomorph /ˈskjuːəmɔrf/ is a derivative object that retains ornamental design cues to a structure that were necessary in the original. You can say that it isn't, because they departed with the aesthetic elements intended to make it look true-to-life like reflections and bevels; or that it is, because it still retains the placements and interacts like the physical calculator.

    For a while there, it seemed like people had reached the consensus that flat vs. skeumorphic is a false dichotomy. After iOS 7 was unveiled, all of a sudden they are opposed again.
