If Apple had used basic blur instead of Liquid Glass in iOS 26, the “wow” effect would honestly be COMPLETELY gone

Ngl, the best thing Apple did lately is Liquid Glass with iOS 26. iPhone finally looks as premium as it costs.

In iOS 27, Liquid Glass now adapts better to the colors behind it instead of always showing a darker tint.

motion should be dynamic — adapting to the interaction instead of playing the same fixed values every time. in this example the pill's stretch and blur scale with how fast it travels. Apple takes dynamic motion to the extreme with liquid glass ui. it's too much for my liking.

Apple’s iOS 26 Liquid Design in Apple Music: 10/10. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this is one of the best design calls Apple has ever made.

New version of @⁠callstack/liquid-glass has been released! This one makes use of the new iOS 26 API for border radius, making it compatible with context menus from Zeego 🔥 You can now achieve this awesome merge effect ⬇️

I have to admit, I’m completely obsessed with this and can’t stop playing with it. I never imagined that one day I would be able to achieve such a stunning Liquid Glass effect on the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.

HUAWEI HarmonyOS 6.1’s liquid glass effect is indeed the closest implementation to iOS 26 among all current smartphone operating systems. It looks genuinely beautiful. This may be one of HarmonyOS’s advantages. At least in terms of visual rendering, dynamic blur, transparent materials, and layered depth, Huawei has clearly shown that it has the ability to create this kind of premium glass-like effect. I am not trying to argue whether it is right or wrong for Huawei to follow Apple’s design direction. My point is that the ability to actually achieve this effect is impressive in itself. By comparison, other Android-based OS skins have not yet shown the same level of execution. The Android camp still has work to do.

Forcing a webpage to render in HDR to make liquid glass active states work on the web. Filmed on phone because the effect is flattened by screen capture 🤓 The effect is limited to Apple desktop displays. Try it
