Need a little affirmation that Android 4.2.2 is worlds better than 2.3.5

First experience w/ Android, i'm using 2.3.5, this is, um, so bad. lol. Will be possibly going up to 4.2.x in a few weeks, is it much much much better?

Android has come a long way since then. Both visually and the framework. What device are you using?

Absolutely. It's faster, more stable and has more features. It's better in pretty much every way. The only possible exceptions would be some silly little UI change you might not like or if you have the requirement to have UMS:

Motorola Admiral for a week so far, as a temporary device

I went from a Droid X2 (same approximate generation of phones as the Admiral) to a Galaxy S4 and the difference is huge.

It is a night and day experience. Android 4.0 feels to me like a polished operating system.

Anything 4+ will yield better use ability/function over anything prior. As already mentioned, the Visual changes and everything else behind the scenes makes these devices awesome.

What are you making the jump to?

The moto x if Sprint ever puts it out.

To my mind they are world's apart. Most of the criticism I read about Android (laggy, etc) pretty much seems to come from people who have only used < 4.1. 4.1+ is on a whole other level in terms of responsiveness etc...
