The original GSII came out a year ago. Just now recently launched was the Galaxy SII Skyrocket/Blaze which was an upgraded GSII.

On a superficial level, iOS is old and boring. Sure there's a few new features, reminders, etc, for iOS 5 that weren't there in iOS 4, but to people like my girlfriend, she sees iOS 1 -> iOS 5 as the same OS. And for people like her, iOS is getting stale.
I hate to say it, but Apple needs to change how iOS functions on a basic level if they want to keep their market share.
I have to disagree. People don't enjoy change. Sure a new UI might be a nice refresh, but ultimately people are set in their ways and will get frustrated in trying something different and will usually go back to their previous habits. The iPhone is successful because they don't change the overall UI but are still able to expand features. This keeps previous iPhone users happy and keep coming back.
Whoever decided to go with this horrid texture should be fired. Please no more 'leather' pixels.
One of the big things I would like to see is a proper text selection ability. Often there are times where I want to select a word or a .com address within a paragraph or bullet list, and it will select the entire list or paragraph, not the single word, no matter how I move my finger about changing the select box.
Sometimes it pays to have an open mind and see what others are putting out there in terms of UI. iOS is stale and needs a make over. Period. It is ok to call Apple out once in a while. See what happened to RIM when they stayed stagnant and didn't innovate? Why does Apple get a pass?
Zooming in more sometimes helps with this.
I actually get annoyed when places (like facebook and recently gmail) decide to just overhaul a perfectly fine UI that works just because they haven't changed it in a while. In many cases the result in a UI that is less usable then what was where before. I'll take a usable UI over a "fresh" one.
"Siri turn on Bluetooth"
"Siri turn off Wifi"
Done
"Turn off WiFi" got me: "I can't find Wifi hotspots"
"Turn on Bluetooth" got me: "Search the web for 'turn on bluetooth'"
