iOS 7 announced with new-look interface for iPhone and iPad

New look? I don't think so.

How on God's green earth can Apple tout this as an "all-new & completely redesigned UI", when it's so obvious they just copied MIUI??

Shameless.

Hmmmm astute observation
 
From the few pics and quick description, it looks like a step in the right direction to me.

When I saw a posting of iOS 7's "new UI", I thought the poster made a joke and Photoshopped a MIUI ROM onto an iPhone.

Then I realised the joke is actually real. :sick:
 
I like it, compared to the previous look it is much better. Now I just need to wait a few days for an android theme to pop up and then I can walk around pissing off the Apple fans :p
 
Just watched the IOS 7 release video based on an mates super excited reaction: Sheep are already brainwashed by this stale rhetoric! lol

I've said it before and I'll say it again - the Iphone is a damn good phone & it does what most people expect their smartphones to do with minimal issues OOB - but it's been a while since it's been the pinnacle of innovation. Yet they still make it seem that way, lol, yet it is clear to see they've cloned features from other OSes without thinking twice! Wonder if we'll see any lawsuits soon?

They get a lot of sales because its a good phone but a fair share of their sales come from the marketing BS(if you watched the release vid) which sounds like some new-age cultish brainwash speech, which sheeple eat up like honey - "OMG, I've never seen this feature on the planet earth ever before"

I followed WWDC on Engadget and the live blogger more than once mentioned how obvious it was that applauses were seeded by Apple VIP's. Apple top brass would start clapping like crazy and then everybody else will fall in. Sounds like some church services. All that was not there was the "Amen brother!".

It's actually not that minimalist. If you look at it, it's highly designed, just not so heavily, woefully overtextured as it was previously. There aren't these vast tracts of white space or unoccupied room that WP/Android have. It uses some quite deep layers of texture that play over each other beautifully - the frosted glass effect is the clearest example of that; but it's built into all the animations, the way they move over each other like they're inhabiting a common space and retain definite considered physical properties.

Then they focused on colour, which comes across in an outstanding, classy way. The palette is vibrant and living; and icons are much more recognizable as a result. It all seems quite mature and thoughtful to me.

Jeepers Cerebus, this reads like a wine tasting article ... LOL!
