Panos Panay teases new Windows UI

[EvilBoris]

Panos Panay is now in charge of not only hardware design , but also Windows.
He recently teased some snippets of the new style interface that is coming to Windows 10, but also Windows 10X for the upcoming Windows Surface Duo phone, powered by android.

Panos Panay on Instagram: "The team made this video to celebrate making it to 1 billion MAD on Windows 10 and I wanted to share it with all of you. Now at a time when so much of our work and communication is taking place through our devices, it’s esp

Some of these changes have been sneaking in already, I've seen some of the icons change.
Could we see some of his magic also worked on the Xbox UI? Some peripheral apps such as xCloud and Game Pass reflect a differing style to what is seen elsewhere in the OS and the website, so perhaps we shall see a refreshed look for SX.

I'm definitely enjoying the UI of the Windows Xbox app so I hope we see more of that.

He's in the upper echelon of design.

Maybe this might help?

Not seeing anything but a white bar in your post. 🤔

Same here.

The so-called newly designed start menu was certainly a disappointment. It could be so useful, but it's just to useless.
For example it could show me the whole list of apps at once instead a scrolling list when I have the whole screen to use.

Windows getting a dark mode?

got that clapping sound was annoying as hell and it kept on going

Are they bringing back the ability to use folder trees in the Start Menu yet?

Otherwise, I will continue using the Classic Shell program to give me a usable Start Menu (I use the Windows 7 one), because the Win10 thing is, for me, utterly useless.

Windows has had a dark mode for a while now. At least a year if not more.

Looks fantastic.

Windows 8 did this and it didn't work.

I just want tabs in File Explorer. Is that so hard?

 

[elzeus]

Panos is like a more down to earth version of Jony Ive.

 

[KainXVIII]

I hope they will not change w10 design every month like on xbox 🙄

 

[Aleh]

I look forward to a day when Windows doesn't look like crap.
This looks promising

What?
Xbox One only has 4 major dashboard updates in 7 years

 

[Windrunner]

Windows has had so many false dawns when it comes to redesigns that I am not ready to celebrate yet but if anyone is going to push this through, it's Panos.

I'd love to live in a world where Windows 10 doesn't look like an inconsistent, ugly mess with constant throwbacks to Windows 95 so best of luck to him in turning around that sclerotic ship.

They've gone full Apple with that trailer.

 

[Kyrios]

Yeah that looks REAL nice.
