Not enough eye candy, too much eye candy. And the usual Android is too hard. Too bad this logic has been wrong for the last two years of Android and I'm willing to bet it will continue to be wrong.


It so frustrating to discuss about Android (or iOS). Some people will take the slightest criticism and interpret it as platform bashing. The grandparent never claimed that Android is doomed because it has too much eye candy.

Eye candy is damn hard to get right. It’s easy to have too little or too much or to be kitschy. Apple seems to be really into kitsch and Google seems to be really fond of doing too much lately. (You can’t really tell from the video, though. I would love to see some extended demo or a guided tour.)
