Oldbury Road and High Street Smethwick has a mixture of the 'n' and hexagon signs its like one stop in one signage next stop new brand then reverts back to old and so for.
If you are following the 87 route it should not be hard to get the signage correct. The ones in new brand have x7 on them.
As has been previously explained, the bus stop flags are only being replaced with the new design when they need to be changed, ie if route numbers change or if they become 'faded' and need replacing.
They won't all be changed at once, this is to keep costs down.
I much preferred the previous blue and white bud stop signage. It was a lot more clear and easier to read.
The new signage can not been read as easily from a distance and is virtually impossible to read in the dark.
New pn 28 service has new old blue style and new White wm style fitted to stops
The new 97 stop on Moor Street also has the old style flag!
Not really stop but station, at one of the stands at Dudley, think its the 11 , the vinyls have peeled off showing the original Wumpty WM branding!! Retro!
A new stop flag was fitted on Parkfield drive for the X70 and 96 but it was blue and white

Having seen the new design in Digbeth I totally agree.
Somebody should contact them.
