The moto x did seem to have some redundant apps that I didn't like, which the iPhone didn't have. What's up with 'pictures' and 'gallery' app. They essentially do the same thing. Same goes for 'mail' and 'gmail'. Why not just have one? Oh well, at least it's all hidden from view.
One thing I hate about Android is that the default "mail" app does not support push. My iCloud, school, personal, and a couple other email addresses are all IMAP. None of which get push on the stock email app. The GMail app has push, but obviously that is only for Google email accounts.
It is the equivalent of Apple giving 2 email apps on every iPhone, one that only works with iCloud and does push, and another app for all other email addresses that doesn't have such basic functionality. If Apple did this, all the android fanboys would flip out and say how much they hate Apple for this.
