About this video
Five minutes, three days of use, and a verdict that runs against the reaction the redesign was getting: Liquid Glass looks better on a Mac than it does on an iPhone or an iPad, and the three changes that come with it are practical rather than decorative. Published four days after WWDC 2025, so the build in it is the first developer beta.
The video is honest about what it is: three days of hands-on with a build that had been in the world for less than a week. Published on 13 June 2025, four days after WWDC, which makes it a first-impression piece about the first developer beta of macOS 26.
The argument is specific and worth recording because it was not the popular one. The reaction to Liquid Glass that week was largely negative, and the video says the opposite: the effect reads better on a Mac than it does on iOS 26 or iPadOS 26, because at window size the translucency has room to behave like depth rather than like a smear. That is a claim about scale, and it is the sort of thing that only shows up from using it rather than from screenshots.
The three changes it singles out are treated as practical rather than decorative — which is the only claim a three-day impression can responsibly make. Nothing here is a measurement: there are no benchmarks, no battery figures, and no comparison against the previous release beyond how it feels.
Watch it as a record of a moment. The release itself shipped in September, and what is on screen here is a June beta, not that build.
What it covers
- The comparison is across platforms, not across versions — the argument is that the same design language reads better at Mac window sizes than at phone sizes.
- Three changes are singled out as practical, which is a narrow claim for a five-minute video and the reason it is still worth watching.
- Published in the week of WWDC 2025, so it is a first-impression piece about a beta, not a review of the shipping release.
