MC255072 – Updated June 30, 2021: Microsoft has updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
With usage growing daily in Microsoft’s preview experience, they are rolling out Outlook for Mac to Preview Channel as the default experience for any user who has never tried the new experience. The default-on Outlook toggle provides access to enhanced performance and user experience across Mail, Calendar, People, and Search.

Microsoft announced the toggle in July, 2020 (MC219576).

How this will affect your organization
Users will be switched into the new Outlook for Mac experience upon starting the client. Users can turn the toggle off to switch back to the legacy experience as desired. The feature update uses Microsoft sync technology and the updated experience offers an easily customizable experience that uses Microsoft Services to provide relevant suggestions and insights.
What you need to do to prepare
For new Outlook for Mac users with questions, users can reach out to support via Outlook > Help > Contact Support.
