Yes. Too much contrast and too much color saturation. Wider control range either way would be great. Better control could work for me, but for now I'm back to classic mode.

To be honest, it is better that the previous rectangular one, but i always use

Absolutely. Icon is OK, choice of color is very cheap.

New icon is fine - however the old one is still present in dialogs.
Dark mode looks bad - glad 'classic' is still there - I see classic PT and I'm in my Happy Place.

Volume and location marker lines. Eek. Pretty unpleasant
