also you think having flash player is a positive aspect, lol
You may not like it, but the internet runs on Flash. Until HTML5 is both standardised and supported well by browsers, it's much better to have Flash than not.

One of these is a consistent user experience.
My philosophy is if you need to root your phone to get what you want done with it then there may be a problem. Rooting and customising and taking apart are all fine if you know how to do that, but most folks – they don‘t know how to do that.
That's rubbish. Anyone who tells you that you need to root an Android phone is talking through their arse. The only people I know who have rooted their phones are either developers or people who really, really don't like bloatware.

Here's where Android's customisation is important: You don't like the default browser? Fine, there are 6 great browsers available for free in the Play Store and a fair few more of varying quality with novel UIs. You don't like the keyboard? Try Swiftkey, Swype or any of the others. You don't like the email app, the message app, the calendar app, any of the widgets... just install something new. Android gives options. iOS doesn't.
