Besides the rebrand, it looks like they have tweaked the app a lot.
It's very smooth and it has significant improvements.
You'll feel the difference when you use it, if you use it a lot like me.
City Lens have the map for quite sometime now, when you put the phone down you'll see the map.
It's smoother and has a better experience after the update.
I don't notice much difference in Nokia Map but Lens and Drive are a bit different and smoother.

Other things I notice:
- Favourites from the Maps are now synchronized to Drive and vice versa. Also sync to my Nokia account on here.com. Neat.
- Economical Route from Drive has been replaced with Balanced Route. Could be a balance between Shorter Route and Faster Route, both of which remain as before.
- In Drive, we can now customize to show only the map features that we need, for example, we can tick any of these: Car Repair, Fuel, ATM, Police Stations, hospitals, parking, etc...

There's here.com and the ability to save all of your favorites (Maps, Drive, Lens) to the HERE cloud, so any changes you map in any of the apps and even the here.com o the PC will be synced to the apps. This is really cool with regards to the integration of all the data in the 4 apps.
