I think it's better to go for a public poll for the feedback before making it as a final.
So, I have created this new thread exclusively for Icon.

Kindly use this thread for you feedback & suggestions.

I like the new icon but I think it would be better if make the blue darker or add some color variation, take an inspiration of the muzei icon, see attached.

Icon Design Suggestions

I made some versions of the icon with darker blue color and variant shadow effects.

I like material version of old one, or #3 posted above the best. I think the new one is too flat/dull. Needs some darker colors and something to make the play triangle stick out more.

Doesn't look like everything else.

MX Player's old icon looked similar to many others- particularly PowerAmp, which I also use. Maybe a black border around the blue button?

For comparison purposes, here's what a material version of the old icon colours would look like:
I like this dark Material icon! Because too many blue icons in my drawer (attached screenshot), stop with this color please. :eek:
It would be possible to allow choose between this darker icon and current icon in settings @bleu8888?

BTW current icon is too flat, need to add a shadow effect.
Thanks!

I've carefully created a few versions of the icon redesign following Material Design guidelines (some of the examples above don't follow them at all, which is precisely what we want to avoid). I did my best in creating the proper shadows, highlights and everything:

Two iterations on both play symbol (both original from the current icon and system play icon in Lollipop) and colours (current [kinda, as it wasn't fully material, actually] and former MXPlayer colours).

I hope you like them.

Nice job, for blue icons it's possible to replace the white color by the dark color?
