Matias Duarte says Windows 10 looks like XP with a new skin
Matias Duarte is a man most famous for bringing Material Design to our Android devices – he’s also the Vice President of Design at Google, so naturally, you’d expect him to have some pretty strong opinions about designs used in devices from Google’s competitors. The target of Duarte’s ire was Windows 10 today after the Googler managed to get his hands on a Microsoft Surface 4 Pro running Windows 10. It’s clear that Duarte wasn’t impressed, saying that Windows 10 was “basically XP with a flat design skin”, following up with:
#Windows10 ? More like Windows 10 years ago!

As is the way with social media, this elicited quite a strong response from Twitter. Some of the best comebacks comment on the lack of regular updates from Google, the dated design of ChromeOS, and the general crassness of the tweets. On realize his tweets had gotten quite a lot of (negative) attention, Duarte clarified his statements by saying that he only meant that he was disappointed how Windows 10 operated like Windows XP, not that he found the design lacking.
