Apple. They spent the time to "get it right" with iOS, and when Android came along they had to settle for second best in most areas to avoid looking like an iOS clone.
- dsl 15y agoYay. Downvoted into oblivion by the Android fanboy army!
- arron61 15y agoYou mean like all the areas that iOS (v4&5) is now copying or taking an inspiration from Android now?
- karolist 15y agoI agree with you mostly. Android is slooowly catching up in the looks department, but Apple is still way ahead. My first impression of Android was that they desperately copied Apple UI, but failed to make it as good either because of lack of skill, care or not wanting to look like an iPhone. If you want examples of how well Android can look try the MIUI rom. These guys built mostly everything from scratch to create a pleasant, unified look (contacts, phone, messaging, browser, music player etc. and they all are best Android apps I've seen). Sadly, it does look much like what would Apple do. Disclaimer: not a fanboy, I have both, iOS and Android powered devices and I actually develop on them both.
