Well I've had a parallax (sic? I don't think I've spelt that right) Live Wallpaper for some time now. Android lends itself to allowing other developers to innovate without waiting for the OS to introduce those "features". There are also other Launchers that can provide the iOS 7 graphical embellishments while other Launchers have provided even more 3D enhancements. I've used those before, but I'm running a fairly stock UI out of personal choice. And that I think is still why Android gives me the best platform -- choice. There are a variety of device manufactures and I can replace whole system components, but at the end of the day, while my particular device is unique to my experience, I can run the same software as another device that looks, and in some cases feels, completely different than mine.
