Ubuntu OS smartphones tapped for late 2013

[villain]

from what I've seen it's a lot laggier than Android but I'm guessing that's because it's still unfinished

As long as we're given root access this can turn out to be a pretty big thing

So the Home screen is like a suped up Google Now overlay...

Can't see even imagine this thing beating windows phone, much less ios and android

Looks good but I cant see anything there you can't do on a custom rom/theme.

ironically I would say they bodied windows phones...

the only thing they have going over android is the uniform os across all platforms, other than that there is nothing I saw that I feel is a great leap from android... the shyt looks damn near the same really down to functionality.

nothing ground breaking per say.

if you have held any of those windows 8 phone in your hand then u know they are

Ubuntu is buggy and wack. At least this will keep the nerds busy though.

well ain't like Windows phone will. shyt is more boring and functional then IOS.

May as well get a feature phone.

For this being upped I thought it'd be some groundbreaking stuff.

It looks decent but Ubuntu is so overrated and glitchy at times so I'm not gonna go crazy over a demo vid.

one app for mobile and desktop and it looks better than iOS, WP, BB 10 demo, and stock android at this point.

Late 2013? No HTC, Samsung, or LG behind it?

So they really won't have a phone out until mid 2014.

DOA

Won't make much of a dent buuuut that UI sure is slick. Having more or less the same UI across the board is neat and helps Interoperability.

I find it a far better one-size-fits-all approach than Winows 8. You still keep the full productivity on the desktop and you're giving power control to the mobile and touch users a la Android, all while being slick.
