Google is testing a completely redesigned Gmail interface

Gmail may soon look nothing like the Gmail we all know so well. Google has invited a select group of users to test a completely new interface for the webmail client, according to Geek.com, which appears to be part of the trial. The test version of Gmail ? which may never see an official release ? dispenses with design elements that have been present from the very early days of the email service. Most notably, the unwieldily sidebar has been replaced with a slide-in pane. Buttons like "compose" have been moved to the bottom right corner, and it looks like there's another new feature down there: reminders. Just like on Android, you should be able to tell Google to let you know about a date in the future or to respond to a certain email. Hangouts, of course, are also integrated into the design. And cosmetically, there are major changes afoot that make the interface look right at home next to Google Now.

I dont use gmail, but for some reasons this design looks cool, but for mobile mode only.

 

I'm pretty sure there isn't a single phone that doesn't have a mail client anymore... that's all gmail is useful for anyway. 

Look at all the space for ads! Google will probably go this route, using all the ads from their promotions tab.

I wonder if there's a way to track how many people actually visit the web page for GMail versus how many people iMap/POP into it from client software like Outlook/Thunderbird/Evolution.  I know the only time I use the web interface is if I'm away from home.

Wonder if it's like on YouTube where you can click the menu thingy at the top and hide, unhide elements as you see fit

I know most of my mail is done on the phone or tablet, rarely go into the web interface anymore

I switched away from gmail because I hated its weird non-standard IMAP implementation :/

That's cool, but all the others blow chunks as an email service, so I've stuck with Gmail for quite a while now

Because IMAP assumes folders. Unfortunately, everyone that implements standard IMAP also uses folders, which really sucks compared to labels.

I'd much rather use folders than deal with the quirkiness of labels with IMAP.

Outlook is better.

I'd personally use folders over labels any time. more sense, more organized and you can still tag them.

    • You might want to update to 1TB drive.  They are not very expensive these days, there are plenty of options - simple look I would think you could find a 1TB ssd or even nvme somewhere between 50 and 100 bucks. when I have moved to larger ssds in laptop in the past, you can just connect the drive via usb - image.  Then take the old drive out, put in the new drive and there you go..  If your concerned about how much space you have left this prob your best bet..   
    • I see! Wasn’t aware of that. Even though they started off with desktop app for Mac before Windows. Should be on it’s way soon! 🤞

    • It's a Developer Beta 1 not even a Public or User Beta, I doubt any of the design is 100% finalized yet.
