Darren77999 I presume you mean the new Outlook, right? I'm testing it on one of my devices. I do find it a bit slower and even sometimes clunky compared to the Classic Outlook. One frustration is when you single click in a Calendar timeslot, it automatically opens an appointment...argh. Also, opening the Calendar and/To Do in the "My Day" option takes at least a minute to update!
There are some things I like btw, but it has been released way too early in my opinion!

Refreshing the UI is a positive move, especially for better integration of Copilot and other features. Some of these features were entirely absent in the previous version, which makes the update even more appealing. However, I agree with the mentioned glitches; the overall experience feels cumbersome and oddly "emulated," almost as if it's running on a low-memory virtual machine—despite the fact that I'm using an HP EliteBook i7 with 32 GB RAM. It’s undeniably frustrating.
