Not sure if I like it yet.
Seems way too Android-y.
What does everybody else think?

It's just there to me. Not seeing anything blow away or really much different than before. Like I said when the 5s and c were announced, it'll probably be 6 months to a year before all the devs catch up and I can tell any difference this makes.

On the one hand I HATE the new way it handles you moving around things on the home screen, if you mess up just once it resets ALL of the changes you made since the last time you exited out of the moving mode.
That being said I love how all my apps are now in just two folders. Before this I had all my apps separated into several folders for game apps and "utility" apps(anything that wasn't a game app). I had a lot of small folders, however now I just have two folders, a game app folder and an utility app folder.
Oh and I curse them for changing the tabs view in Safari. Now they have that private browsing button where the new tab button was and moved the new tab button to the center. My muscle memory is to press where the damned private browsing button is.......
Overall it is decent, hell I might even love it once I get acclimated.

One small thing I like is the compass and the altimeter looking horizon finder with it.

It's better. It was necessary. I work for apple. So if you guys really have any comments on iOS7, www.apple.com/feedbackI wish I could say they don't listen. But they do. Engineers look at it and good ideas are implemented. I've seen it first hand.

I really like it except for one issue - the wallpapers. It's almost impossible to change your wallpaper properly & I hope they change it soon. Everything else is really good.

As with any massive software release, I'm going to wait a few weeks/months before all the bugs get worked out.

I don't know, I have a Windows phone (Nokia Lumia 521)
The OS is great, but the app selection is anemic. The OS also has weird limitations, like not being able to pick custom text tones (supposed to come in the next update). It runs as smooth as butter though, much better than any remotely comparably priced Android. No lag whatsoever on anything I've done, and from what I've heard that doesn't change as time goes buy like it does with Android. It was also only $120 (if you bargain hunt, you can get sub-$100, but I needed a phone right away)
I'd highly recommend anyone not wanting to spend an outrageous amount of money on a phone check out the 520/521 (521 is Tmobile specific)

My eyes suck so some of my complaints may just be me. The contrast, though fixable in settings, is pretty damn glaring and eyestrain-y, and the fact that they seem to have shrunk things down kinda pisses me off. I love some of the features, and figure I can get used to most of it, but the shrinking down visually just seems unnecessary.

The new multitasking screen is a complete, unapologetic rip off of WebOS - even more than the tech sites let on. As a WebOS fanboy, I say this: What the hell took you so long?

Not to open up the "Droid vs. iPhone" can of worms, but I had planned on switching to Droid prior to this update. I thought I'd wait and see if this update had anything that would keep me around. After updating and playing around with it, yeah, I'm switching. Apple needs to admit that their interface is painfully outdated. A level feature in the compass application and a new color scheme isn't exactly innovative.

I like it. The contrast is a little odd at first, but mine eyes are getting used to it.

I feel like I'm playing with a LeapFrog computer. Everything looks so cartoony and/or generic. Other than the look of it, I don't really mind it at all.
