I agree there are no huge surprises, but I think you are underestimating the difficulty of redesigning the form factor in under a year.
Even just changing processors, radio chips, adding gyro, camera in the exact same mechanical form factor is a non-trivial change. This is a completely different housing that needs to be integrated and tested. To the user, it's the "same size" device- a flat device with a glass screen, but make no mistake, this is a re-engineered device less than a year from the previous. (Yes, parallel development, etc. but still.)
Not revolutionary, but far from "milking the original".
