I was watching the trailer for iOS7 and noticed the Airdrop feature. AirDrop works where you can share files to any iPhone nearby, wirelessly, using Bluetooth but in a much simpler and smooth fashion. It will pick up anyone who is nearby with iOS7. Watch the video below for more of an explanation; @5.26
Samsung mocked the iPhone 5 for not being able to share files with a new feature that lets you share files by holding two S4's together and transferring files. As seen in the trailer; @0.32
Who did the 'simple' file transfer better? Do you feel like getting out of your seat and holding a phone against another or is AirDrop a better alternative?
Remember, (as it says in the tiny writing on the S4 ad) that you need to activate SBeam and verify each new phone before you can send any files.
With Airdrop you can add strangers straight away as long as long as they say yes.
Also, If two people are sitting opposite each other, they would have to reach over to each other to send a file. With Airdrop they don't have to move and it's just as simple.
I haven't tried either but AirDrop will obviously be better and much easier to use since it is an Apple feature and they make sure everything works seamlessly.

That's a pro when you make your own software from the ground up.
