iOS7 will make or break Apple. Quality has caught up with them and, miraculously, the competition has figured out that people pay for nice design and quality (unlike the PC market, that they still have yet to figure out that quality, construction, consistency, etc., all matter).
Android - what I really want to see is how this arena is pushed via the "new" liking of "flat" design and Windows Phone.
Prediction: iOS7 will be enough to keep 50-75% of the fan boys happy enough to buy an iPhone6. The rest will shrug their shoulders with a soft "meh" and buy what they like best, not what they "think" they like best.
Personally, I am waiting for the HTC One to have Windows. When it does, I am fairly certain I'll be upgrading and saying goodbye, and good riddance, to Apple once and for all.

- How is Android better than Windows?monkeyshine
- I can't stand Android as it is now, Windows looks great. Not sure how anyone could argue differently, at least from a design standpointformed
- a design standpointformed
- sure, I'll bet. I bet on Google and that has done well, wish I had on MS, as it has too...Apple, eh...formed
- The whole 'android is badly' designed argument is long gone. I used to say the same. Not the case anymore.set
- HTC looks interesting, the one's my colleagues have don't have the refinement of Windows or iOSformed

Does brand love override great user experience?
Of course it does, it always did. Marketing 101 tells you that an emotional connection is the strongest link between a brand and it's user.
That being said, you are confusing nice looking design with user experience. I've used the windows phone, and I loved the look of it. Way better than the iphone for sure.
To me, user experience, goes beyond the look and it also includes functionality and reliability. Which (completely subjective option here) I don't think you can get from a windows machine.
However, I'm completely comfortable saying that I'm brainwashed by apple, not because I'm an apple fanboy, but because I just had frustrating experiences with Windows / Microsoft products over the years.
Is Apple the best option out there? probably not. But I rather try something I haven't used before before I give Microsoft another chance.
- He's talking about feedback and notifications... it's not only the visual design he's raising issues with.zarkonite
- No, I'm not confusing visual with UX...I'm talking about the user interface and interaction. I'm a UX Designer, by the way.monkeyshine
- ...and you lost a little credibility when you said you'd try anything other than MS. :)monkeyshine

Which brand has the most suicides committed by its slave work force?
Is that what they call "end user" experience?
or backend kernal panic?

Technology used to feel limitless.
Today, it feels more limited than ever in the form of Apple OSX & iOS; lack of customization, flexibility, etc. etc. etc...
These limits are hardly lessened on any platform as technology appeals to the masses (consumers) rather than specializing more to any given audience; I guess this is where applications (or apps) come in.
Personally, I'd love to see a community-driven, open source OS capable of emulating applications built for all OS cross device. I guess that is the goal of HTML5?
The "golden years" of technology seem to have come & gone.
