The new player uses the material design 3 style, thanks to the control items look more modern and clean. Each button, for example, “playback” or “settings” is now located in a small area in a capsule, making the player “simpler and easier to use”.
One of the main changes is volume control. It used to be in the lower left corner, but now he moved to the lower right corner. Instead of a horizontal strip, a vertical slider is displayed when pressed. Some users are unhappy that the old key combination (with arrow keys to adjust the volume) no longer works. Someone generally doesn’t like design.
Youtube says at this test phase that users listen to the reviews and make additional changes until the launch.
