atched visual styles: when you tap the phone icon, you get a bar of
three icons. Two are simple line icons (History and Contacts), the third is a
detailed picture of a keyboard to denote keypad. A minor thing and easily
fixed.

\- Interface inconsistencies: I noticed that a large red X is used for closing
a screen (which I like over the sometimes unclear Back button behaviour you
get in Android). But at 3:16 in the video the Wallpaper screen has a 'close'
button (with X) and below that in the tab bar is the larger red X for closing
too. So you have two close functions on the same screen. You see the same
duplication on the date and Time screen at 3:41. By the way, I think the way
Windows Phone lets you change date and time is much nicer. It's a similar
spinner approach to Plasma but less cluttered. Here's a video of it in action:
[https://youtu.be/kIsWgCX7qtE?t=54s](https://youtu.be/kIsWgCX7qtE?t=54s)

Also, the commands 'close', 'cancel' and 'delete' all tend to use the same X
icon in many UIs so if there is no label for X, then it's meaning (and
behaviour) should be consistent across the OS.

\- Weather app: there is a 'hamburger' menu on the left and another slimmer
hamburger menu on the right. They feel too similar visually. Presumably, the
right-hand menu is equivalent to the overflow menu you find on Android. But
are two menus needed here? Could they not all sit in one menu?

Obviously, this is a beta and these are relatively minor points. I can see
some influence from Android, which is fine - there's no doubt that Google,
Microsoft and Apple all study and are influenced by each others work. I just
hope the OS stands up well as a unique UI rather than just a clone of bits
from other OSes.

Overall, it looks quite polished for a version 1.0 and I hope the project
succeeds. I would love to see an open source project take the lead in
design/UX over existing projects.
