I think the 6 last apps are mixed: their screenshot don’t match their title.

Good list, but imho Hipstamatic deserves a place in this list.

Good roundup, but it would have been nice to have a description (however brief) of each one, to save having to figure it out by looking at each app. Some are more self explanatory than others…

  I was going to say the same thing. Some of the pictures don’t immediately convey what kind of app they represent. Having to click into each pic to find out what they are is tedious.

While this article isn’t too bad, it really doesn’t say much about the apps, what do they do, if they are free, if they are any good.

Just if you think they are eye candy or not…

So many apps coming out every day it is hard to keep up. The Color Stream app is very useful to me.

Great article, There are a lot of ugly apps on the store, I think that the design of the app is really important!

p.s.: I’m the developer of Ten Squared, so thanks for the inclusion in the list!

I have always been happy with my android….. until now.

I still love my droid but wish developers would kick it up a notch and make my apps look like these.
