Shame that when you actually USE an ICS/JB device all you notice is how inconsistent and unpolished the UI/UX is across the OS, vendor additions and the apps. And this is on the Samsung Galaxy 3 the supposed flagship phone.

It's confusing enough just knowing when to use the hardware "back" button or not.

The Galaxy S3 was never the "supposed flagship phone." I don't know where you heard that, but whoever told you was wrong. The only "flagship" phones for Android are the Nexus phones.

Samsung has a skin on it, it's minimal, but it's still there.

I have a dozen nonstock app installed... and they all fit with the style just fine or perfectly.

I've never understood and may never understand this confusion though I hear it and try to address it constantly. It's the same in almost every app and is different in only a very few apps where the overridden behavior makes a lot of sense.
