I'm a big apple fan but at those prices they can stick em where the sun don't shine😧
How can they justify these prices when the new Android phones are just as good if not better?

If it rings, you can send texts on it, it takes a decent photo and you can get the football scores on it, what more do you really need?

Whilst it doesnt look any different to iOS7 there is a lot of new stuff in there. This article will take you through a lot of it :-
http://arstechnica.c...+All+content%29
With regards to photos they have changed things around. Photostream stuff should show under the Photos section with the Photos app along with anything on the phone as well organised by year, location etc. Recently added will show stuff taken in the last 30 days or the last 1000 photos...which ever comes first. There is also a recently deleted option for things you physically delete on the phone along the same lines so you can get them back should you wish.
The new health stuff is interesting especially when apps are updated to import data into it. I use Runkeeper for tracking walks etc so hopefully that will be updated in the near future.
In terms of phone prices...if you look at the Samsung Galaxy S5 or Galaxy Note they are around £550 sim free direct from Samsung as well so its not a massive difference compared to the iPhone.
I'm sticking with my iPhone 5 for the time being but i might look at the Apple Watch when thats launched. I wear a watch all the time anyway so one that makes things easier with the phone and other stuff is interesting.

I ran an iPhone 3GS for three years without an issues then upgraded to the iPhone 5 i have now which i've just updated to iOS8 and early indications are its fine. Just a case now of waiting for developers to take advantage of the new options available to them.

They do get somewhat bloated with "updates" that are not necessary but that's programmers for you in justifiying their jobs.
