Google is seriously beating up Apple lately with their new UI design and UX are very ergonomic. Apple used to be the one to follow, I think Google Material will establish a new standard.

Really? I find it bland, generic and corporate. Though at the same time, it works, and is exactly why I like Google's web apps. Simple. No fuss.
My eyes just don't see anything new or refreshing. Just simplification. And a design style that we've seen for decades. It's not really worthy of praise, or criticism... kinda like Ikea furniture or a well working toaster.
Also - every time a company does a shift in design or anything design related for that matter, there's this innate need for people to bring up Apple and shoot off a round. Why? The world is obsessed with that damn company and salivating at their downfall. Enough already.
- Agreed. And yet people will fall over themselves praising it...I don't get it.ukit2
- It's simple. Here are some clues:

The comparison i made here is clearly because Google and Apple are the biggest leader in tech. And because Apple have always been on top of everyone design wise. Note I'm the first one to not play the 'Apple Hate Game'. I just wanted to highlight the fact that for the first time, another company, Google, is giving a lesson to Apple on design. My opinion here.

Google has the worst design. How many times have you seen a nav in Google replaced by icons, to only realize you have no idea what those icons mean, represent, and will take you? GTFO!

Completely agree, Google is edging to the front. Android was horrible, imho, aesthetically, which kept me from ever considering one, but they are starting to change my opinion. Apple, to me, just looks horribly dated (software), but their hardware continues to be superior.

Apple - over designed
Google - getting thereApple - designer lead design (too simple, clever but not all functional)
Google - engineer lead design (too many options, functional but lacks cleverness)

Why did they hire Microsoft to do the color scheme?:
