My wife loves it and I have to admit, it looks really nice. I really hope Android will follow suit and re-do their UI in 4.4.

What's wrong with Androids UI? iOS was the one that was in dire need of a facelift, to me Android can still go a while before they need to change anything.
 
I'm not talking about touchwiz. I'm talking about Android in general. Pure AOSP is not pretty either.

I don't see it. You haven't answered my previous question though as to why you think it's ugly? There must be something that puts you off.

You didn't have a question. You made a few statements but I'll answer anyway. It just looks ugly to me. The iOS7 UI looks premium, attractive and refined.

Last time I checked that is a question. :D
 
:confused: I have a S4 and always have been a fan of Android, not iOS. Am I not allowed to say iOS7 is pretty and Android isn't?:confused:

Because pretty much every news article published on MBB so far regarding iOS 7 and iPhone5s/c has been trolled by the fandroids. This thread so far has remained unscathed and I'd like to keep it that way.
 
I'll give it a shot. Android just doesn't have the same cohesiveness to it. iOS 7 just seems to flow, everything seems like it fits and was designed to all look and feel like it works together. Not a massive fan of Androids use of a ton of black and a lot of it seems a bit messy and all over the place.

My comment was complimenting iOS7, not criticizing it. I then commented to say that the Android UI looks ugly compared to the new iOS. If you see that as trolling, then I am at a loss for words.
 
It turns into another vs. thread which I'm trying to avoid.

I understand what you're trying to do but to pull it before it even got to that point is a bit premature, IMO. I don't really blame you, though, as it has happened a lot in the past. I stopped trolling the iFans a while ago :p I think DrJohnZoidberg and I had a civil discussion and I certainly would not have bated and entertained anyone into a potential mud-slinging match. Anyhoo :)

Mercurial has always been more of an Android fan.

Here's some rumoured leaks of the 4.4 UI. Looks like not a very drastic change from before:
