So lots of people complaining about how iOS 6 was "lackluster". I kinda agree, but honestly wasn't to surprised. I have an iPhone 4 and iPad 1 so already many features won't apply for me. Looking back at iOS 6 though, I think its just ok. Really good if you have an iPhone 4S or iPad 3rd gen.

The only complaints I have are really 2 apps from the top 10 list. I think if Apple added a couple features in those iOS6 would be much better (they're highlighted in blue).

Top 10 Features For iOS 6
1. Maps
2. Siri
3. Facebook
4. Shared Photo Streams
5. Passbook
6. FaceTime
7. Phone
8. Mail
9. Safari
10. Accessibility
