Before 3.0 dropped, I went to Sol to do some landable moons pictures for comparison after the update.
Let's see how old vs new planets stack up now
Jupiter
Europa looks pretty much the same. Ganymede and Callisto, on the other hand, show radical change in surface detailing and color.

Saturn
Iapetus' change has been dramatic, remainder of moons - Enceladus, Tethys, Dione and Rhea - show minor changes, though surface appears to be more detailed now.

Uranus
Uranus' ice moons Umbriel and Titania appear largely unaffected, with minor lighting changes. Ariel and Oberon now have distinct surface differences.

Neptune
As with other ice moons, Neptune's Triton doesn't appear to have changed much.

Pluto
Charon's surface appears to be more detailed now, while general color remains unaffected.

All in all, I would say the planetary generation works much better now, with very distinct surface colors based on crust's composition.
Well done Frontier!
PS: I've tried to create an image gallery inside the topic but something's completely off with tagging and the resulting mess was unbearable. I've instead linked Imgur galleries directly, sorry.
