Visualizations for Looker versus Looker Studio

I used Data Studio previously and coming back into Looker Studio, hearing about it's amazing updated visualization capability, I have to admit I'm struggling.

It feels like the visualizations are fairly locked down in studio compared to Looker - from color to placement, it seems like Looker is the better option?  I am hoping some folks can weigh in.

Case in point: Timeline visualization - studio view appears locked with dates/time at the bottom of the chart whereas is appears in Looker there is capability to move the timeline at the top of chart - far more useful if the data extends past the viewable area.  

Can anyone advise or recommend one over the other for visualization configuration?
