Nothing special, actually this looks more like Symbian, its like a step backward from Maemo

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
How is is it a step back? Not saying it is or is not, just asking if you could specify why you think so?

I dont find the ui design nice, too messy. i think maemo 5 is by far better although i want to have meego too on the n900.

Oh man I just hope that all that bloated Social networking integration can be turned off and removed so it will not crap up the UI for those of us who are not Facebook friendly...

Nope. It's in the small print on the back of the retail box:

yeah, I'm not big on the social networking thing.( No facebook,myspace, or twitter) but heavy into rss feeds. It actually looks pretty nice. I was on the fence about getting the N8, but I think I'm gonna pass and wait for this.

Viipottaja 2010-08-02 19:44

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
I would imagine you do not get any Facebook etc. updates if you are not a member of Facebook.. :p On a serious note, I fully agree. And also trust that it can be turned off in the homescreen.

Eh those pictures prove what!? One is square same size widgets (Symbian ^3) the other some kind of talkbubbles from social networks in a big widget. (meego) :p

Oh yeah the contacts, Phone and email buttons are almost identical as the ones on n900 just different color. :D

Yep, translucent rounded rectangles in both. Worse, they both use standard "triangle for play"-type media controls. They're identical.

Only one question remains: which one is the evil twin.

Viipottaja 2010-08-02 19:59

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
I thought you said they look the same?

michou 2010-08-02 20:03

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
Lets be honest here, most of the OS's out there for touch screens look very similar, let it be iOS, Android or webOS. But the differences are found in the usability and the structure of the OS. Based on this demo, Meego is looking good, in my humble opinion.

gerbick 2010-08-02 20:11

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
I gotta side with Prada on this one. I see similarities; definite Nokia DNA on both. Perhaps why I liked Maemo 4 and Maemo 5 - less Nokia DNA in both of those.

Regardless... to dismiss the "family" resemblance would be a tad bit hasty. I can see it.

'looks more like'

Also has the same font and none-gridless widget placing and dashboard with X to close in the corner.

The biggest differences is the buttons at the bottom

Viipottaja 2010-08-02 20:17

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
Actually, S^3 has a grid and fixed shape for widgets. That will be gone in S^4 of course.

And of course they have similarities - all UIs do. And they should have some resemblence from Nokia's point of view (and perhaps even from Qt app ease of development point of view) to make them more instantly recognizable as Nokias.

My point is Maemo 5 was and is better. The 'fancy' transitions are nothing to write home about

If they wanted to impress anyone they should've just done a scaled down version of this

I do, As a developer I prefer Meego cause i can use C++/C and Python. Android is just overhyped OS like Iphone.

There are alot of Open Source developers out there that agree with me.

If you want an android buy and Android from HTC or similar and give up about Nokia will do it cause it will never happen.

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
okay Nokia if this is PR 1.3 we are friends again ...dreaming .. so hard to see what they suddenly can do for there new Devices a halve year after the N900 ..but it seems like they want to do something now.. but why hmm maybe for a new Cashflow..my 2 cents

Adobe Reader Lite 2.5 for €9? :eek: GTFO!
Adobe Reader Full 9 is FREE on Android

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
Well if you think its messy or not as good looking as Maemo5, then Nokia's probably hitting the spot with the mainstream audience at least. ;)

And trust me when I say, that is cool. [/totally ignoring chance of personal opinions]

BTW: I don't think the transitions will work out quite like that on the device. This is like a powerpoint more than anything. Everything's a bit jerky.

NOMOS 2010-08-02 20:58

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
So Prada, you respond to his point of something looking nice, by stating the apps in the demo are too expensive. Smart.

Mainstream is iOS, Android w/ HTC Sense and Sony's Mediascape/Timescape UI

This along with Samsung Bada, Symbian and KIRF OS' look like tacky imitations of mainstream

Thats Prada for you.

The UI does look nice although I have to admit I was hoping the nokia meego UI would be similar to the meego tablet UI demoed not too long ago. In any case, nothing is official until nokia says it is.

It looks pretty real, and Nokia finally you are listening, its looking like a good UI.

Which again, has nothing to do with how the store looks in the video. Can you not contain your frustration?

Is it somehow possible for the community to ban certain members?

Just asking..

gryedouge 2010-08-02 22:06

Re: Nokia MeeGo UX leaked?
 
but it is those certain members who make this community all the more worthwhile.

Unless I missed an announcement, directui (called MeeGo Touch Framework nowadays) will be used by MeeGo and Orbit (called uiemo nowadays) will be used by Symbian^4.
