          Apple will patent the flat look design, and it will sue Nokia and Samsung for making Windows Phone devices and HoneyComb devices.

              RejZoR, 02 May 2013Very very flat design means they'll copy Microsoft's tile G... moreAhahahah LOL, I think they will just make their icons flat but the colors will still remain. Tiles are single colored. So they might go flat but not simple.

                    It will be better than android and wont have lag. Yes I need a more flat OS which is more user friendly.

                    Contacts thing in android is very slow really.

                        Very very flat design means they'll copy Microsoft's tile GUI? I mean, you can't go flatter than that right?

                              AnonD-140124, 02 May 2013Great, now they copy WP and Android in UI thats not copying.thats moving with the trend and surviving.being simple doesn't mean copying but yes wp actually is gaining traction,and emerging to be a pioneer in minimalist sort of ui designs,like a leader.i bet apple won't copy wp ui or android ui,and have their own simple approach.this way they would focus more on features like other oem's are doing and actually innovating-smart pause,smart stay,1080 p,pureview,cinemagraph,virtual keyboard(as on bb),gaming integration(xbox on wp),powerful processing(s4 is matchless),screen tech(that glove thing on lumia),e.t.c. E.t.c.
                              There is nothing in the above Remarkable set of features that apple have brought up to front by themselves,judging by iphone 5.

                                If the flat UI will use rectangles similar to WP, then Microsoft should watch out for a patent sue from Apple. Apple will sue anyone who is using rectangles.

                                    Why is GSMArena so late? I've read this news already for like a month ago.

                                      they finally realized their UI is getting boring. i wouldn't be surprised if Apple will go suing every mobile company who uses icons with flat designs. !!!

                                        There is a reason android is flat.... they have trouble displaying gradients.
