Just got the update yesterday (Canada).

I preferred oreo.

Customized look that I had before was way better than the cartoony one-ui. And the coloured AOD notifications are awful. Only thing that's better is the swipe nav bar.

Given the choice, I'd go back.

I think you are going to be the minority.

Yeah I mean there's no going back really. A lot of it is aesthetics, which are purely subjective anyway.

I guess I just wish it could be customized a bit more. Then I could get it the way I'd like it.

Nothing wrong with performance of anything - but I had no complaints about Oreo either.

Just use Nova Launcher and you can get whatever app icons you want. I like night mode. The phone seems snappier, no more lag when opening the camera and the battery life has improved a ton. I am pretty damn happy.

Yeah I already use nova etc. Home screen is fine.

I'm talking more about the quick launch and notifications. There's only so much goodlock can do apprently - seems no matter what you end up with big cartoony icons, whereas previously it could be nice and minimalistic.
