It's been a while since the web Play Store got a fresh coat of paint, but it's coming. Google is in the process of rolling out a tweaked UI, after testing it for a few months. We're still digging through the redesign, but some changes are obvious. The screenshots are much larger, which is a long-overdue change. You'll also notice a myriad of layout tweaks and a new dedicated reviews page.

Ever since the last Play Store redesign, screenshots have been weird. They were confined to the slider interface, which made them too small. Look at how silly this is.

Now, you get a much bigger image in the new lightbox viewer. The lightbox UI covers the whole window, but the image is toward the middle. Still, it's a vast improvement. See below.

Scrolling through screens is pretty slow in the new Play Store, though.

The reviews are different as well. If you open the "All Reviews" section, you'll now get a dedicated page rather than an expanded section on the main app listing page. The new page shows how many thumbs-ups each review has received, and there's a new "All Devices" filter option.

The format for app installs is a little different as well. Whereas before the Play Store would have listed "100,000,000 - 500,000,000" it now says "100,000,000+." And what's this? A new look for the device compatibility drop down?

The mobile version of the web Play Store got a small tweak as well. Instead of a gray background, it's white.

The new interface appears to be rolling out rather quickly. Some people see it on all listings, but others see it intermittently or not at all yet. Keep an eye out. We'll continue looking for new changes and update as needed.
