UI/UXe.com 2018

Seems as if there are big visual revamps this year on a few major websites I tend to visit occasionally. This time it is xe(dot)com, the trusted site I usually visit to see currency exchanges. Apart from what Google and Maybank did for their UI update for Gmail and Maybank2U, xe was straight on; providing no welcoming landing page for their users. Although there was no welcoming page to allow users to choose if they wanted to use their “classical UI”, they did provide a persistent Feedback button at the bottom right in case users feel like bashing commenting on the UI update.

To be honest, I do miss their previous white space filled UI. It did provide the ease on my eyes. Positive things though, fonts are a bit bigger now and definitely clearer. They’ve moved the currency exchange form as the first thing we see as compared to the rates and stock graphs of the previous UI. It’ll take a bit to get used to since I’ve only used this site to look at exchange currency so naturally my eyes would fixate at just below the bottom half the screen. Minus points, not really the biggest fan of the gradient header as it feels sort of early 2013 aesthetic.

BIGGER FONT SIZES!

and bigger exchange rates now.

*sigh*

Maybank2UXupdate

Shocker!

Was surprised with a new landing page on the Maybank2U site. Nice big and clean fonts. I think they did a good job on highlighting the new site design as its own singular page as opposed to Google’s bottom right pop-up for its recent UI update for Gmail and Drive. It deserves it’s own page to announce something as big as this.

Holy.

So my first impression was that it looks hella clear and concise. Placing the login form/button dead centre is a good decision to navigate users (like me) straight into their accounts without looking at unnecessary product offerings and services; which is why any other information is placed far below. Even I didn’t want to scroll down any further, since I just wanted to go into my account to check stuff.

The future is bright and friendly!

Accounts are presented as cards now. Also, the amount of white space feels comfortable when compared to the old UI. There’s a clear indication of the type of information that’s important to users marked by obvious colour accents (green and red). Other than that I went on to do my business with ease due to the new UI. It’s amazing.
