After a first glance:
UI overall look is largely ok for me. Font size seems to be smaller now (I know I'm shortsighted, but now I feel like I'm almost blind). Color schemes seem to be ok... I found one which works for me.
Icons are ... meh. I really wish I could at least assign colors to them.
Some of the shapes are ok and intuitive (e.g. Mail, Wallet, Market).
Some other shapes seem to be ok but need time to get used to (e.g. Channels, Journal, perhaps Ship Fitting).
Some of the shapes seems to be problematic (e.g. Ship Hangar, which looks too much like Ship Fitting for my liking; People and Places which is not intuitive with regards to bookmarks - and which has much too small buttons to switch from People to Agents to Places in its window; perhaps also the Corporation icon, which reminds me of two hands holding a star... and which might have worked for the Loyaltly Store).
Some of the shapes are just terrible (e.g. Contracts, which looks like a magic scroll from a fantasy game; Inventory, which looks like ... I don't know, some kind of a box? a chimney? a well in a medieval village?; Personal Assets, which I recognized because I know what it looked like before and which looks like some kind of a washing machine or with some imagination like some kind of machinery - because of the gear inside.
And did I already mention that I REALLY wish I could assign individual colors to them?
Physically Based Rendering makes most of the ships look awesome. However some are too shiny now and are showing a wierd color (especially Ishtar).
New ship models look great imho and you even made the Falcon and the Rook look similar but not identical. I like this direction of the development.

Certain input windows cause the screen to go dark when they pop up (splitting a stack in your inventory among them... I mean, seriously?).
This is massively annoying. Please remove that feature or at least make it optional or at the very least exclude the split stack pop up window from this.
(As it is, it makes me want to strangle someone - preferably the person who came up with this idea - every time I trade for a few minutes... and I hardly trade for more than a few minutes ++er session these days, because I can't stand this screen flshing.)
