Android Wins Gold for Best Platform Experience from Parsons School of Desig

[Boz]

Matias Duarte and team have reason to be proud this evening, as Ice Cream Sandwich has won the Gold Prize for best platform experience at Parson's School of Design's annual user experience awards show. We all demand a beautiful and functional interface on our smartphones, and Android really stepped up with Ice Cream Sandwich. As Durate's first real work with Google, it implements all the good from previous versions along with good looks and effects that make it stand out.

The video you see above was the clip reel shown to the audience, which really does embody the eye for design and simplicity that went into Ice Cream Sandwich. Congrats, Matias and team on an award well deserved!

I'm not surprised. It is an excellent platform.

Nice, congrats :)

I don't think Duarte would win gold for Most Elegant Shirt, though.

But Android can't be the best! It always crashes, it never works, it always lags and they stole absolutely everything from Apple (who we know invent every good idea ever conceived in the tech world)!!!

In more serious terms, however, it's nice to see Android get the recognition that I believe it deserve.
