        Excelent, most of them. I find the vertical scrolling drawer particularly useful from my use of HTC and WP devices compared to the normal one.
        Dark theme is also great. I remember when Apple made a huge deal out of something like this with Yosemite.

                That copy and paste UI is so iOS like. And auto backup for apps? Was this not available to Android phones now?

                  This looks like it can be done with an incremental update, not a completely new version. 5.2?

                                I find it interesting that a bunch of those features were present on BlackBerry10 for year(s). For sure: Direct Share, floating copy/paste, 5 GHz hot spot.

                                Also, the App stand by concerns me a lot. Even know, I have problems with apps that quit when they are not supposed to. It will be a nightmare all over again.
