A Fast and more focused, elastic, and effortless Gmail's New UI... ;-)

“Preview” and “Preview (Dense)” themes in the Themes tab in Gmail Settings.

Sticky ad on the bottom sucks, btw.

Rest of all is fine.

Yeah, I had previously set the Planet theme, which looks good since it's dark, and contrast is eye friendly.
But this Preview theme is WHITE, and also, it makes everything BIG. Didn't liked it at all.
So me too, switched back. :(

didn't switch back, using "preview dense" instead of just "preview", the only difference is the whitespace, which is reduced on "preview dense"

I'm liking the new red streak in Google's designs.

Why the hell are people going crazy over this new theme, it sucks in my opinion.
