They're adding the start button, that's not a redesign per se.

^ Pretty Ironic that Microsoft have just announced that they are going through a redesign because Widows 8 failed.
- "Microsoft users are so fucking dumb, blind and ignorant" - Steve Jobsutopian
- It's a tweaking, not a redesign. And it's a function issue (start button etc.) not a design style issue.ETM
- Lulz at W8 failing when its being ripped off by everyone and sold well. Apple is envious.CygnusZero4

As I just posted in the Windows forum, I am an advocate for good design - it matters. iOS is horribly ugly, generally speaking. Apple's hardward is superb. Windows Phone looks fantastic, but the designs are still behind.
If Ivy can do what he did with hardware, as they hope he will, then Apple will shoot to the top.
Ironically, all MS and Apple need to do is copy each other. Apple seems ok to copy other people (uh, "windows"), but the hardware world seems reluctant to build one good thing and instead make a billion mediocre things.
It'll be interesting to see where it lands.
- Ummm... Windows copied Apple, actually. Mac 1985, Windows 1985.ETM
- err... Mac 1984ETM
- apple doesn't make their own hardware... it's the same stuff as in the PCsalbums
- umm. apple & microsoft stole from PARC. look it up.antagonlsta
- *Apple's hardware design...better?
(hadn't had my coffee and a migraine, not sure what I was thinking about the 'uh, windows' comment ;-)formed - We ALL KNOW about Xerox PARC FFS. Please.ETM
- Every twat who comes along like they're the only person who knows that, belongs in the "Punches for" thread.ETM
- then why claim that MS stole from apple assclown. id just like to punch you fuck the thread.antagonlsta
- Xerox didn't even have a product to sell.monospaced

***Apple UI due "major overhaul" that could be "unsettling" to current iPhone/iPad users.
Jony Ive behind new "Innsbruck" design that disposes of skeumorphic in favour of flat.

It's funny that Apple whored out 2.0 shiny skeuomorphic design that's there's now a backlash/trend against it.

- Design is about how easy it is to use, not what it looks like.mikotondria3
- Saying that, I've never owned an Apple product, and have only ever used one for about an hour in total. I was like 'meh'.mikotondria3

- who, what ?mikotondria3
- visual design is part of the design process, making things attractive makes them easier to use.zarkonite
- 'attractive' is not something measurable and cannot be engineered.mikotondria3

Echoing recent reports about a redesigned 'flatter' user interface in iOS 7, 9to5Mac says the next version of the operating system will lose "all signs of gloss, shine and skeuomorphism".
