Aside from the multi tasking, the thing that i keep putting my android down for is the UI seems to be made for using 2 handed, the holo themed apps everyone is raving about are horribly designed. Here is why, android phones keep getting bigger, google knows this since their own nexus devices are 4.7". You have your android controls on bottom, and toolbars on top....... Why, every other mobile platform puts toolbars on bottom. so you can use it all one handed. On my one x in pocket for example, if i want to mark something as read I have to reach the top of the screen, then to go back reach all the way to the bottom to go back. Similar things in the music player, etc, app tray, etc..... Its all over. And that is the new "great" design language that all the tech sites keep saying is so great and amazing. i think its designed to make the phone harder to use, making something harder to use is not better, its worse.
