[QUOTE=Protocol7;40982981]You use the word fanboy a lot but it occurs to me you don't listen to yourself or read what you're writing[/QUOTE] Where am I being biased then? I never downtalk just one side of the argument. I'm seriously trying to show I am taking the middleground. I don't particularly care what you like, as long as you like it based on valid points and not use lies to construct your preferences.

Your phone looks absolutely awful and I truly don't understand how you call it clean. Apple does the world a bit of a service by not giving users freedom to customize out of the box. It prevents things like that from being created.[/QUOTE] That's just overreacting. Yes I could clean it down much more if I wanted to, but I customized it to my preferences. I'm not buying a phone with a 400+ ppi screen to have it display one solid colour like you have. It's your good right to do so, because it's your phone and your preferences, but I don't share them. The fact that I haven't easily installed it, proves my point. I could've if I wanted to.
Whoops I own an android phone, its almost like I have both devices so I can have an objective opinion. Hint: they're both good
Then why all the animosity?
I should ask you the same question. Every post quoting me has been "how old are you?" or "wow you're a children!" You're the one unable to accept that people value Apple products. Not me.
I am the only one who likes to have an android homescreen with a couple folders of icons and maybe a 4x1 weather widget I don't need fancy clocks or battery gauges, those are at the top already. I have secondary homescreen with google calendar and google keep widgets split 50/50 as a kind of "ok what's going on at a glance today" screen but aside from that and my main one I don't need much else
Hell, here's mine. [t]http://imgur.com/Y53Qu0f.jpg[/t] Simple, effective.
[QUOTE=Protocol7;40982838]Thumb that shit, Christ. Also still looks like shit. If you want actual good looking android, go to [URL]http://www.mycolorscreen.com[/URL] or use a launcher with a cohesive theme. Widgets ruin androids look 100% of the time, that's why I don't use any on my Note 2.[/QUOTE] If you want good looking android, just go vanilla.
Yeah that's true, Google promotes minimalism and they do it well. #HOLOYOLO seems like a joke but a lot of people like it. That's androids strong point, you can change literally everything. I like how the new IOS looks because it fits the clean simple look of the hardware.

This is getting into post your territory, just sayin.
To be honest, the new colors look like someone's gone mad with a set of fluro highlighters. I'm going to miss this... [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9669849/ios6.png[/img]

ios7 beta available.

I'm challenging the fact that you think it looks good by any standards. And I agree with Protocol7. The iPhone may not be as flexible, but it's certainly good looking and the iPhone is still a good phone.
Same restrictive OS with an Android look?
[QUOTE=cody8295;40985387]Same restrictive OS with an Android look?[/QUOTE] no they said theyre opening up a lot more api's but facepunch probably wouldnt know that because nobody likes to actually get information lol!!
[QUOTE=Superwafflez;40985037]ios7 beta available.[/QUOTE] Isn't it only for developers? I see people already selling codes for $5-8.
Anyone else notice that they never showed the black iPhone anywhere? I'm guessing the UI is white scheme only.
[QUOTE=Ninja Duck;40985635]Isn't it only for developers? I see people already selling codes for $5-8.[/QUOTE] Yeah it is, I got an email.

[QUOTE=The Baconator;40985924]I am gonna enjoy watching the worms feast on the carcass of whatever this abomination is[/QUOTE] I actually really like it. Everything I need is right there.
I don't like the way it looks
It's like they copied Android but didn't realize that Android looks pretty terrible and inconsistent.
I've been looking at new phones, and I think I'll be waiting it out for the new iPhone than getting an Android phone, iOS 7 looks fantastic. I think the reason is because I want an iPhone is purely for functionality. I want to use my phone, not end up muddling with UIs, finding pretty icon sets, or flashing new ROMs to see what works best. The most personalization I want is to change my background to a cool sunset photo I took. Car analogy. If you offered me a choice between two sports cars, a Porsche Cayman S, or a Subaru BRZ and 50 grand to spend on parts, tuning it and making it faster, I'd just pick the Porsche. It just works.
Would it be warez to link to a place to get iOS 7 for free? It isn't technically a product yet.

[QUOTE=The freeman;40986889]Would it be warez to link to a place to get iOS 7 for free? It isn't technically a product yet.[/QUOTE] Yeah, you've got to be a developer to get it, and being a dev requires a subscription. Also, just because it hasn't been released to the general public doesn't make it not a product. Damn you automerge!
