So, my phone forced itself to update although I didn’t want to since the recent updates have been horrendous to say the least, but this one I found an extremely strong dislike towards. I’ve always liked Samsung, although it’s updates we’re rather stupid and unreasonable at times, this one ticks me off the most. Why would they change the notification bar? It was fine the way it was. And don’t even get me started on the emojis. They look horrid. Also, changing the colors for copied things on the clipboard does not help at all. Neither does changing the back button. Or any of this update in this sense. I just dont like it that much and at this rate with all of these unreasonable updates im thinking of switching phones. PS: I was a fan of the update before this one. It looked completely fine. Why change it? It’s just adding more clutter and burning my eyes.

    It seems slower. For instance when cropping pictures, before it would resize instantly. Now there is a pause. Little things like that, but overall it’s ok.

      I have Nova Launcher and it does the bare minimum to change stuff. although I don’t dislike the update this much it’s most definitely not my favorite and I don’t understand why they would make the notification bar so cluttered and change the emojis. It could be that my version of Nova Launcher is outdated, but all it did really was change the icon size etc

    Things I dislike about the update I’m on an s22 Ultra I dislike the massive icons why are they so big? It feels like a childs toy. Also the emojis are horrible. I think those two things made it a downgrade the performance is good but the icon size really annoyed me.

    The only thing i disliked was how accent colors changed text colors on settings and app colors(ex: samsung internet navigation bar colors). But i only wanted my quick settings colors to be updated, and it was a quick change from goodlock, so doesnt affect much.

      honestly i think my opinions changed slightly (I’ve gotten used to the notification bar and the new font, etc) i just don’t understand why they would change the emojis. they looked fine before. (also, it just looks a bit cluttered for me, that’s all)

        Font you can always update from settings under display. I personally use samsung sans downloaded fron the store and it looks the best imo. Also, i dont find the emojis cluttered, that may differ phone to phone.

    Every time there is an update, regardless of the manufacturer or the OS, there are people whining.

    Nobody can please everybody :)

    PS! I like the update on my S23 Ultra

    haven’t even installed OneUI 6 yet, the notification (and simps) can keep crying all day. It just looked half-assed, there are issues with apps having to be reinstalled, and there are constant releases to fix existing bugs. Hopefully Samsung listens, but doubt it.

    It seems like Samsung just changed things to change things. It was perfect the way it was. Wtf. Why does Samsung just get to change how our devices work. I paid a lot of money for my phone and tablet but Samsung just does whatever the hell they want.

    Last years update when they had the rubber band effect on scrolling up or down pages was horrible. There isn’t a way to turn it off unless you disable all animations. But seems like Samsung doesn’t care.
