One thing i love about this phone that does not have any real android equivalent is the screen animations. Animations are often used with any "objects" that moves around on the screen. A couple examples of these
-GPS marker (the marker bounces around a little bit before settling)
-Scrolling left to right in the app drawer(its just so smooth)
-The way any frame in any app can move or bump into another frame.
-Moving anything around anywhere on the phone
-There are many many examples of professional animations
This is a very nice touch that apple added to iOS that really makes the user interface very smooth.
For comparison sake, I feel like the android animations were pulled straight out of Microsoft Powerpoint slide shows. We get slide ins, slide outs, fade in, fade out, etc. iOS animations are power point animations on steroids.
The conversation between android and Microsoft Powerpoint went like this.
Android : "Hey Microsoft, we need some animations for our operating system, do you have any we can borrow"
Microsoft: "ummm, I think we have some left over ones from power point that we dont use anymore"
Android : "SOLD!, Wait, actually we already stole them.
Microsoft: " We're going to sue you for using our animations!"
