My older Pixel got the UI updates and I hate them. The look is inelegant, even childish, and like Apple they've decided to hide things under extra button presses.

The insistence on adding AI just makes startup slower. I have not had a single use for AI on my phone ever, though I'm a big fan of it for software dev.

My "older" pixel (9 XL) is also now slower as a result.

It literally takes a half a second to tap "speaker" during the dialer after the update, which it didn't before.

Disappointing.
