Do a better job describing Zedge than saying it has wallpapers and ringtones. You embarrassed yourself highlighting that.

Notifications? They're a list of things that happened on your phone since yo looked at it last. How robust.
Filing system. It's a mobile OS, I'm fine with app based organization. Much flatter, easier.
Default apps. Never been an issue for me. The share button gives me options I need.
And then I got to the end of your post, where you said Android is 'years ahead'. Actually laughed to myself when I read that.
I'm actually glad you made this post. It takes away your chance to say you're unbiased from now on. You aren't describing better aspects of Android, you're describing preferences.
You love your Android phone, it's cool, just give it up on the "I don't choose sides" part.

"lol" "neato" "embarrassed yourself" etc etc... these are the responses of a child. Try to grow up a little here.
Anyways, because I'm an idiot, I'll reply regardless. These are features of the Android operating system. You can prefer to use them if you wish which also make them preferences as a user but they are features of the OS. I don't know how you can say they aren't. These are features the user interacts with on the operating system. These are features that Android has that even if iPhone users wanted to prefer not to use, they couldn't.
And really, that's what it all boils down to, options. My phone lets me customize it the way I want to. And we're not even talking about rooting etc and all that crap, we're talking on a basic level. The way you brush off these features is so childish.
You're really just ignorant of what Android has to offer, plain and simple. A rich notification system is something I couldn't do without if I moved to a different mobile OS at this point. Being able to have active notifications is honestly a killer feature of Android and something that once users learn about and understand is brilliant. In this thread (and others) the negatives posts about Apple tend to be about iOS and how stale and boring it's become so it shouldn't surprise you when that's what we're actually talking about and that's where the replies to you came from.
Now if you want to get into technical reasons the iPhone kills any Android device out there, by all means, go ahead. As a mobile tech junkie I would love to hear those, always wondering what my next device will be. Just be sure to be consistent and do the same days after the launch of the biggest flag ship phones from LG, HTC, Samsung, Sony, etc etc.
