How about Android 4.x?
This does look very nice, much better than any variant of Android I've seen though the top of the 'welcome screen' (time/date) looks identical to iOS - same font, sizing, and arrangement.
The font they are using is called "Ubuntu" ("Ubuntu Light", to be exact, I think), which is fairly distinct from Apple's choice of Helvetica, even in the limited area of clock digits

You can type in some example times here to see:
