Hee.
Hardware wise, yes Id love a 4.8 that would make my usability experience nicer.
I read about many phones, many designs, removable battery, std USB cable, SD slots, blah bl;ah blah. They would all be good, but not necessary. I easily forego all those for iOS and Apple hardware smoothness, fluidity, and App quality
I just see standard features on Android that we should have. Sharing. never really existed, then it does now in iOS 6 for a limited number of non user decided apps. Why not all apps that the user installed that can share the particular content?. Toggles. Set battery hoggers l;ike BT, wifi to go on and off, either by time, date, or by geo. Back button. We have it on some things, it needs to be an OS function not an app function that is often not there or in varying screen locations.
I heqar that its too complicated. Well, iOS added 200 features, did that matter? No. iOS7 does the same I bet, wuill that matter? no? Why?As iOS layout, colouring, fonts is clean and friendl;y. No need to clutter up menus, we are 200 features better off and menus are still fine. Some dont want extra features as complicated, so does that mean iOS7 needs to be great but add nothing? Cant have it both ways. You could seperate so called complex featues into a Advancfed button that exists on most settings options, so that the surface settings are few, and the detailed ones are not in the way. What you dont see, wont affect your menus
But it wont happen, iOS7 will be anothet drip feed of long existing useful Android features, well; not Android features, but standard featrures in many cases. Its Androids horrible look and feel that makes it look klunky and complicated, not the featureset volume, IMO

I have 5 YouTube clips by one author on Android vs iOS if you want to view. Biased, but not toooo bad, and there are some incorrect statemnets about iOS, but you do get a feel for some nice stuff. Not geek stuff, and not a HUGE amount, but nice ease of use stuff. I can post URL when home tonight, but I dont want that to start a war. Apple is great, but what they add to me in quality, I lose in ease of use and functionality compared to elsewhere. Android I do not like for many reasons but it has the right functionality. I'd say basic versus comprehensive TBH

But I thought screen size was the most important metric? And remove able battery. And expansion card slots?
<wink, wink>
I happy with hardware and software on the apple side. I do like the look and feel of a few samsungs. And think metro on mobile is cool.

In any case, the OS is more important than the phone

And pixel density is device specific too
