iOS 26 vs iOS 18: Is Apple's 'Liquid Glass' a true redesign?
100% agree with this article. visionOS is a complete redesign because they had to rethink it from the ground up. With iOS this revision, unlike iOS 7, is a simple reskin. And in my opinion, a pretty bad one affecting readability and usability.Not a good show for a company years behind on AI.

iOS 26 is here with Liquid Glass redesign, new Camera, and Apple Intelligence promises
Mixed bag. I like my icons to live on a clean, separated, contrasty background. I like my interfaces to be quiet and in service of the job to be done.
The problem I have with this glass look, which is cool sometimes and outdated in other screens I’ve seen, is that it floats on top of my content. It takes more effort to read.Similarly I want my menu bar to look like a menu bar. Now they’re floating icons and I rely on Apple’s shader algorithm to see whether I like it or not.They’re blue background - the water - looks from the early 2000s. I’ve seen Linux distros doing a better job at providing nice default backgrounds.

PlayStation VR2 controller support comes to Apple Vision Pro with visionOS 26
Who uses this though?
First you purchase a $3500 spatial device with almost no gaming content.Then you purchase controllers designed for another spatial device?
For what? 3 games that might work with it?
What am I missing? Enterprise use-cases?

Apple's new and sweeping user interface design is called 'Liquid Glass'
Not for a moment they have uttered the word 'Siri'
It's clear their design is a bit of a distraction tactic from it. Haven't we seen this UI design before? It actually feels like a step back in time to me.
On the positive side, they really seem to have fixed iPadOS - finally.

visionOS 26 at WWDC rumored to have a big emphasis on gaming
Apple should treat gaming with the same gravitas as TV+. Which means getting exclusive content on board. Acquire some larger studios, make content that goes well with the Apple brand and reposition the TV product as a capable gaming system (M4 Pro powered) under a new name.
