Default [Q] About ICS and it's interface on Xperia phones.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoIsNYR7XJ8

I watched this video that shows the official ICS Rom being demoed on Xperia Arc. The first thing I noticed is that the interface is the same old horrible SE one. Does anyone know if the interface will look exactly like SE Gingerbread's stock one or if they will change it when the update is finalized (I read it lacks many features and it's just a "beta" for developers)? The stock ICS theme looks so much better than SE's interface.

Yeah I agree it looks to much the same hopefully it does come out with a bit of a newer fresher look when done.

it's still a prototype.

just wanna show that SE is integrating some of the ICS features on the SE UI.

i'm sure they will update the whole thing.

interface came second, the first thing is the ICS features.

once they finish with that, then they can skin it with whatever they want. and i bet it's gonna wow us again, just like how they skin gingerbread.

can't wait for the final result. i'm sure it's gonna be sweeet
Nokia 3100 -> somebody stole it, so it must have been good
SE K750i -> great phone, still has it
SE Xperia Arc -> my precious

Hopefully you're right and they'll also update the look of the whole thing.

By the way, my main problem with the SE interface is that it looks very fancy and most widgets and "non stock" things look completely out of place in it. I hope they make a more "standard" looking interface, but still minimalistic and classy like the stock ICS one and with those little flourishes that make the SE interface "pretty".

They'll change the interface, imo.
It's too early for a clear statement atm either way.
