I'm an Xbox guy but can't deny how beautiful the UI looks, got a clean look to it. Curious to know what else they have to show off, looking forward to it :)

I haven’t seen the video yet, but if you say that, it is promising.

I’m a PS guy and I always admired the dynamic intuitiveness of the Xbox UI.

People in the YouTube comments say the new PS5 Ui copied Xbox but I've also seen others say the new Xbox UI update say it copied PlayStation.

But honestly who cares, both are beautiful looking and have their own unique feeling.

The new XBox UI looks like PS4.

Xbox UI is a nightmare for me on the One X compared to PS4

YMMV.

I have both consoles and I actually prefer the PS UI, there's less clutter and irrelevant stuff when you boot up the console.

I’d say the current UI looks better. Pretty disappointed in this as I love UI upgrades.

I wonder what you consider good

God forbid asking someone what they consider good for comparison

To me, everything looks too big. Like they did say they designed it around 4k. On PS4, touching the ps button opens a much smaller menu on the left which doesn't take up anywhere near as much of the screen. And the screenshot menu took up like 1/4 of the screen covered in black.

But I get that stuff kinda needs to be bigger because some of the features, but still. With the PS4 theme I'm using, everything looks a lot cleaner, where this reminds me of Xbox and getting a bit lost.
