To recap
Apple iOS is still the most attractive mobile operating system on the market, but when it comes to core features you might find efforts from Samsung, Sony, HTC, and Nokia offer more built-in applications - including plenty of gimmicks, it must be said - as well as more room to tweak for a greater personalised experience.
