Google has launched a redesigned version of Google Play Store. According to the official Android blog,

The new design focuses on bigger images that jump off the page. Similarly themed content is grouped together so you can hone in on a magazine to read or an app to try. As you move down the page, new recommendations continue to appear so there is always more to see and explore. We've also simplified purchasing so you can breeze through checkout and get to enjoying your movie rental or other content.

The new design will roll out for Android smartphones and tablets today. All devices running Android 2.2 (Froyo) and above will get the new design. According to Michael Siliski, group product manager for Google Play, users across the world should see the new design on their smartphones/tablets in a couple of days.

The new design prominently displays Apps, Books, Movies and Tv, Music, Games and Magazines tab separately right on top of the Play Store. The image size for Book Titles, Movies titles is definitely much bigger, though how good it will look on a small screen Android is anyone's guess.

More on this once we get our hands on the new redesigned Play Store.
