Just wanted to say I’m a huge fan of the new separated horizontal tab design. It looks especially good with the increased omnibox height. Any estimate of when we’ll see this change hit beta?
In most of linux dark themes it’s barely seen. I’m not against this new design resembling Proton UI from Firefox, but it should be under a switch and with better contrast, just like Midori or some CSS modders did.

I like new design follows GNOME UI nicely and I am glad omnibox height is not increased for me. I also noticed omnibox color is not orange, but follows system color now.
Exactly. Barely seen in Windows dark theme too…
IMHO this needs fixing ASAP. Meanwhile i’ll have to find a theme with good contrast 
Are you a Linux user? I could recommend you excellent blackish themes.
Windows here. Switched to “Dracula Chrome theme”

I just want to second that and add that I also think the new settings screen with the horizontal Settings/Brave Rewards/History/Downloads bar is looking really good in 1.73. Brave is starting to refine and differentiate its own UI (as opposed to generic Chromium). It looks less dated and quite nice, and they are paying more attention to design details. 
There is an open issue to adjust the contrast on active tabs here:
Horizontal tabs in dark mode is too low-contrast. Totally agree.

I just used flags to go back to old-school UI.
