Aesthetics aside, there are lots of other smaller (subjective?) things that made me switch back.
  • Swipe gestures: I found it easy to dismiss the Now Playing screen with a subtle flick in 9, but in 10 I need to perform a more deliberate swipe. Same with notifications – easy to dismiss/ read more with a subtle flick, but now requires a longer, deliberate swipe.
  • Widgets, on the other hand, are the opposite – the number of times I ended up opening a widget/ app at the end of a scroll was hugely annoying.
  • This is probably just me, but if I can swipe back and forth between the Lock Screen and Widgets, it feels natural to me that I should be able to do the same with the Camera. Nope. Feels odd that swiping right to the Camera is a one way journey, even though this isn't a change in behaviour as such.
