I'd vote for Mail, with its strange inverted gradient.

Top of the list, Game center. The only one with reflection on it in the entire icon pack.

Only one icon with 3D effect

All non-Apple icons. It looks really weird to me to have some flat icons and some glossy ones.

Unless I am on the first page of the phone, where I normally keep all Apple native apps, it seems to me I have still the old iOS version.

It will probably take some time before I get used to it.

Oh god, someone please agree with me that it's the Safari icon!?

Big fan of the new interface but I want to flush that safari icon down the toilet.

Yeah, definitely the Safari icon! Why is it a round icon with a white, rounded square background? Couldn't they finally start using/allowing transparent backgrounds?

The settings icon sticks out so bad. It's like 4 weird skinny gears inside each other. A few just seem like big and cartoony, like they just took a stock icon and stretched it to the edges of the container.

Yup, they look like chainrings and that implies a bicycle app.

Newstand one is the crappiest icon ever made. And Game Center one too, someone explain me what those bubbles does mean.
