Welcome to FT HON-ExclusiveCGN
So you volunteered to fly the new F configuration despite rumours about it? I'd have done that too .. but probably worded differently.
Plus the annoying folks who interrogated you and made you fill questionnaires all the time ...
You signed an unnecessary form after you were already aboard and had a seat for sure? What about the FT spirit of demanding compensation for concessions???
But to the serious stuff: what seat topology is it? A suite or coffin, does it have adjustable walls? What type of power outlets are installed? Does it feature and ottoman? Can two people dine together, can they converse when seating next to each other? A sketch or drawing of the seat?
..because the product is top secret and no-one other than crew and First Class Pax are allowed to see it.
..a person from TNS (a german survey company) approached me. These guys are also in charge of surveys in the F Terminal, that LH does once in a while. She immediately gave me a paper I had to sign, saying that I am not allowed to take pictures of the cabin..

If there were not already april-fools in other discussion forums, I would be less sceptical in this moment (but I can confirm that D-AIGZ always made LH442/443 the last days and that there is never > F4 available all the next days).
HON-ExclusiveCGN: What if you had refused to be a guinea pig for the new F or had refused to sign the paper for secrecy? Downgrade?
BTW: Welcome to FT and thank you for your contribution! ^

seatmap for this flight was also gone most of last week and now shows only row 2 with the usual 1-2-1 configuration

Like ottoman etc 
And yes, people can converse when next to each other. Furthermore, the room that the seats takes up (I always count windows) is the same as it is with the old one - 4 windows on an A343/333
Power outlets? Hmm...let me think. It had an USB port, a LAN port and an EURO/US power plug.
It has adjustable privacy walls.
Everythings is electronically adjustable. Table, Seat...P2 told me, that even window shades are kinda eletronic on A380.
P.S. Don't know what they do when you refuse to sign the agreement. I think nothing, but in the end, it's their plane. So they can forbid to take pictures on board or so...I doubt that they downgrade you. For sure, you simply would have not been allowed to test the seat, or simply sit on it!
P.P.S. The test seat was totally parallel to the aisle!

Thanks for elucidating us HON-ExclusiveCGN
So the overall aera the seat does occupy has not increased notably on the Airbus planes? Is that a valid conclusion?
