Following our previous report, Google is officially unveiling a new 3D logo for Android. The broad goal of this updated branding is to “help connect Android to Google,” and it follows the previous modernization in 2019.
Hey finally a change to the boring minimalist 1 colour 2d logos every company has these days! Back to the good old days!
We’re going full circle
Don’t really care how the Android logo looks, I just wish Google would fix the ridiculously oversized quick toggles and unnecessary whitespace they added in Android 12.
Oh, and the nesting of mobile data/WiFi toggles under another layer.
Logos are supposed to be easily reproducible at any size. This is a terrible idea.
I wonder if pseudo-3D app icons will come back.
Please no… not the skeuomorphism!
I’ll add metallic reflections driven by your phone’s gyroscope to every one of your icons and you can’t stop me muahahahaha
When will companies learn that taking a 2D thing and making it 3D does not automatically make it look better?
sad WordArt noises
But how will the new middle executive justify their promotion?
Android for kids
I like the old design more because it felt a bit more playful, with the lowercase a and simple droid being welcoming and not way too professional. This makes it really generic and brand-y.
Oh wow that looks awful.
This looks like one of those random off topic images you find when searching for something.
Am I the only one who actually likes the new logo?
I still prefer how it was back in 2014.
