People complain that iOS is stale. Not for me, it is still as fresh as ever. And, the design is still amazing. Apple really put a ton of thought in the design and it is apparent. The little things, like the reflections in the volume sliders, or the fact that if you tell Siri to do something for you tomorrow a little after midnight, it will clarify if you meant the actual next day, or the same day (just after you sleep). There are a many number of features and maps has been flawless for me. I pay for Starbucks everyday using Passbook. The performance is unmatched by any other OS as well as the ecosystem. Really a top notch OS and I look forward to iOS 7!
