David Sparks: 我认为Liquid Glass是一个令人愉悦的UI更新，它并没有改变事物的位置，而是在视觉上进行了改进，为设备带来了新鲜感。我特别喜欢它在照片滚动时对颜色的处理，以及主屏幕的自定义功能。虽然目前存在一些透明度过高的问题，但我相信苹果会通过可访问性设置来解决这些问题，确保每个人都能使用它。总的来说，我认为Liquid Glass是苹果在UI设计上迈出的重要一步，它不仅提升了用户体验，也增强了各平台之间的统一性。 Stephen Hackett: 我同意David的观点，Liquid Glass确实为设备带来了乐趣，但我也认为目前在Mac和其他平台上还有很多工作要做。例如，应用程序图标的问题很奇怪，一些第三方应用程序图标被强制放入一个盒子里，这看起来很像在监狱里。此外，我也担心苹果正在从Mac中移除一些历史上的个性化元素，这让我有点难过。不过，我相信苹果会不断改进Liquid Glass，并最终找到一个好的平衡点，让每个人都能喜欢它。
