Yes, but I don't think the turning on the screen is the big problem. If I'm wondering if I have messages, updates, etc., turning on the screen is a very minor hassle (I'm already taking it out of my pocket or picking it up).
That being said, the notifications are one of the two major shortcomings (albeit very major) of iOS relative to the base Android install and other mobile OSes -- the notification system and the built in turn-by-turn directions.
There are other issues, but those are the two really big ones that don't involve the network it runs on (at least in the US).

If I'm wondering if I have messages, updates, etc., turning on the screen is a very minor hassle Hmm, I would find it to be a big hassle. When I'm seated at my desk, I can just glance out of the corner of my eye at my phone to see if the LED is blinking. Having to remove my hands from my keyboard and physically pick it up would be a huge hassle.
