ROFL LOLLOLOLOLOL... android was born thanks to the limitation of iOS. And most android features (Honeycomb and before) were copies of those in the iOS jailbreak community.

Only ting I see iOS has over android is Siri and the toggles (over stock android) the other things they added is already present in Android or sometimes useful to gimmicky. Honestly, the new design is worse. In android, if you don't like the look, you can change it. Bottom line is that iOS has nothing over Android. I hope that GSM Arena will post a side by side comparison between iOS 7 and Android 5 when they come out.

I wish Android had more of these iOS features like system wide backup and game saves. iOS has had these for ages and Google doesn't seem to get it. Maybe it's time i got an iPhone it is cheaper than the Samsung S4 and it doesn't lag either.

I found it nice, graphically good 3D icons and there are lots of new options very cool I love it. What interest me most is the blocking number unwanted person, I remember years ago there was an apps called Blacklist apple band it on iTunes now they implements it on their own.
Beware if you update to iOS 7 Beta is still too buggy. Some apps may work or not working and be careful of backups to iCloud because there is no turning back, once you backup from iOS 7 can't restore to iOS 6.1.4 and downgrading to 6.1.4 is a misery.

Darkmatter, 21 Jun 2013Many people are complaining that it's identical to jellybea... moreThe reason why people jailbreak their iphone is to customize it to have more Android like experience. After all, those developers patterned their design from Android.
Apple accuses everyone of copying iphone and had thrown lawsuits everywhere to the point of banning the importation of infringing devices. But now that Apple is the copycat, it was like as if copying is okay as long as it is Apple doing it. Or Apple must be thinking that it is okay to copy Android because Google does not sue anyway.

Da, 18 Jun 2013"No one single feature that puts them ahead of the cur... moreno single feature? :
HTC has zoe camera, HTC sense for their stocks and beautiful widget
Samsung has air view, air gesture, oh and S-view on their s4
Sony got their own competition with their HW design with Playstation market etc
Apple got, erm, more lockdown with itunes, redesigned better UI and more childish icon imo, gyroscope @_@, at least an official control center which android has since jelly bean, still no widget, bluetooth for FT
sure you can say it all just a gimmick, don't help with daily use etc, but some people will find it useful and refreshing, so i think apple really need more innovation at this time, not just depends on jobs legacy idea and add it with modified released featured :) , having both iphone and android i can say ios7 is prettier, but yeah, almost not that much different feeling compared to older ios, but let's just wait for official release, hope they add more features....
