The settings app is a lot better, clear and prettier without all the extra large UI padding. I was hoping for the same treatment with Win11.Some things are very good though. Apple last year did a whole UI refresh for the whole OS, browser and their 20 stock apps all at once in beta 1. I am a bit sad they didn’t refresh everything in the first beta.

It is a good start but still a long way to go to polish the whole UI experience. And as soon as you click ‘more’ or ‘properties’ in explorer you get the same old white dialogs in dark mode.Most of the stuff will probably be better within the first year. Task manager is still white in dark mode. Quick lists have other hover animations than the desktop context menus and much much more. Delete dialogs with square buttons, Spotify still hasn’t minimize animations and misses one rounded corner, quick lists fly above start but window previews are fixed on the start bar etc. I hope they will release the updated WIndows 11 apps as well cause now it really feels like a hotch potch again.After 5 minutes strolling around the new UI I already see inconsistencies in the basic UI.Lots of other stuff too. It can be turned off if you’re not interested. The Office visual refresh is now available to any Office Insiders running the Beta channel. Office will also now matches your Windows theme by default, though you can configure that. The Office visual refresh impacts Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Access, Project, Publisher, and Visio, and is described as “a more natural and consistent experience within and between applications.” It uses the Fluent Design principles, whatever that means, and utilizes neutral color palettes, customizable ribbons, and soft corners. “In alignment with the release, we are also releasing an Office visual refresh that will shine on the new Windows 11, but will also be available to anyone using Windows 10.” “The visual refresh of the Office desktop apps for Windows 10 and Windows 11 delivers a simple and more coherent experience across the Office apps you depend on, so that you can focus on your work more easily,” Microsoft’s Kori Loomis writes of the update.

So it’s not just Windows on ARM that will benefit from some major Office updates today. In tandem with today’s release of Windows 11 via the Windows Insider Program, Microsoft has also issued a beta visual refresh of Office to match.
