Lets me start out by saying that the UI is WAY faster to navigate than the old interface. The load time for the records has increased by a lot and the views are snappy. I am not saying that it is ready to take over yet, but they are definitely doing some things right!
Anyway, I came across a great way to navigate a view the other day. This feature might have been there for a long time, but it was new to me.

Starting from the view you can open a record. From here you can open the view you came from and simply navigate the records. Cool feature 🙂
