OEMs trying to "distinguish themselves" is what gave us crapware on the PC and buggy UI overlays on tablets and phones. 40% of android devices online today are stuck on 2.3 because some OEM was "trying to distinguish themselves" with fancy animations but can't be assed to update any of it today, when they have a new gimmick to sell you. I'd rather take solid hardware at a great price and know I'll get updates for the next two years.
