Why Change the Google Chrome icon? Google says here is why
Since Chrome is all about making your web experience as easy and clutter-free as possible, we refreshed the Chrome icon to better represent these sentiments. A simpler icon embodies the Chrome spirit — to make the web quicker, lighter, and easier for all…. Numerous creative reinterpretations have organically moved the icon towards simplicity and abstraction, so it felt right to make the icon structure cleaner and easier to recreate.
As Google Chrome expands the reach to Chrome OS notebooks, develop an amazing browser with useful Chrome extensions, and engage a whole new community by developing Chrome videos, they surely need a new brand image aligned with the simplicity of Google.

Nope… Old one was Better
To be frank…I like the old icon ! It looks pretty cool with black borders
That was 3D, this one is 2D. So it seems it is easier to use.
i can live with it, but it doesn’t antialias well at the default windows icon size.
The old icon was great, cool, trendy, etc.
The new one is bland and has to respect cross-corporate values.
I remember when Microsoft lost their way too.
