I'm really a fan of how the new LE5 looks to be honest with everyone. I am really in love with the subtle differences that exist in this version compared to previous versions.

The inactive titlebars look great compared with the ones in LE4 for instance. It's nice and dark, like it's lurking in the shadows.

The hybrid progress bar looks very cool as well. I love how there's not as much of a gap in between the bars when it fills. Plus the solid bar looks really smooth and consistent as opposed to LE4's look. LE4 you could really tell that it had a 'stretched' look instead of it being consistent throughout.

Scroll bars have been improved and catch my eye better than previous LE versions. I love the start button, but then again I was already kind of using this in LE4, just positioned differently - as shown here

That's just some of the cool changes that I've been enjoying the most - though I could name many more. I'm a fan of em3's work and hope he continues to work on Visual Styles.

Keep in mind that we can't all be satisfied by any one person's work. If there's something that you don't like about the theme, you guys should start learning how to use ResEdit or ResHacker. It would take less time to make the change yourself instead of posting 1 thing you don't like about a VS in this thread.

Just my unemotional opinion, so take it for what it's worth.

    • low latency mode is still bugged and causing bootup times slow to a crawl. To fix, you have to disable the feature with vivetool. Seems as though it's not rolled out to a lot of people yet since I've only been able to find only a handful of people that are having issues.
    • I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.
    • You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time
