Which one do you prefer, 3D style or Flat style UI???
-
I really like 3D style like in Windows 7, VS 2008, VS 2010, don't like flat style like in Windows 8, VS 2012. What about you? I think Microsoft is skilling 3D style, many main products of Microsoft are being 'flattened'... Is this a new trend??? Please share... Thanks. PS: There are some things made black and white... getting rid of the colorful world...

I don't either but it seems to be the trend. Google and Apple seem to be going this way as well.

I'm sorry but if flat style is a new trend, 3d style will be obsolete, you will have little chance to like it as you said, I understand that this style is more suitable for phones and tablets, that's why it's a new trend? The only disadvantage I can find in 3d style is it requires more rendering processing, more cpu usage and ram memory. I know Windows 8 will help my laptop faster, consume my ram lesser and make my laptop battery life longer, but I have still not installed Windows 8 yet, simply I don't find any beauty in its flat style. My laptop is powerful enough to run Windows 7 and any other 3D style OS, I can accept the long startup time of Windows 7 (about 2 minutes for my laptop), accept all other disadvantages of Windows 7 to enjoy its beauty which I can't find in Windows 8 (maybe also in next versions of Windows). However, if it is a trend, I will force myself to like it, there's no way. I think Windows 7 has the best UI of all because it seems that Windows 8 and next versions of Windows are certainly flat, flat and flat (metro style?).

Well, I have to say that at start it seemed strange to me (I develop on a Windows phone 8 at work), but then when I saw my friend smartphone (Android) I have to say that I felt like the android look like this[^] while the flat style is a lot more elegant and clean. For desktop I have Windows 8 but I pratically never use metro style application I think they're just not suited for a desktop But for smartphone and tablet i think it's way more nicer the flat style

3D for sure. While I'm a big fan of the Android architecture, I much prefer the iOS UI. /ravi

Options. The user should be able to choose. I like my UI the way I like my women. (Kent is so gonna kill me.) http://www.quotes.net/quote/45650[^] Seriously, I don't like flat UI because I've been using Windows for so long. Having flat UIs for new users is fine, but don't make us old dogs have to change. They didn't stop making manual transmissions when automatics were invented.

Really the thing I don't like is the way Microsoft is catering to the dumbest user and giving us a Fisher-Price interface, where certain things are done automatically, and if a choice doesn't appear it is because they don't think you are smart enough to handle it. What they are giving us is an interface that "anybody" can understand which does not cater to most of the people that are CP members. We may develop software but we aren't "users".

Dimensionless, monochromatic user interfaces simply mirror the continuing souless trend towards the genericized illusion of personalization. Marc
