I love how people are simultaneously describing it as un-original and a ripoff while also invoking Android, WebOS, Windows Phone and Windows 7 Aero as to what it's "ripping off".
Maybe it's actually original? If you think this is Windows Phone, you've never spent any time on that platform. Windows Phone is defined by solid colour tiles and typography. iOS 7 isn't, at all.
Just a guess, but I think they're more referring to WP's lack of depth in the UI - everything is flat.
True, but this also isn't the case. Flat is just a quick descriptor for the icons, when really "simple" would be more apt. It's really not flat in practice.
