I like the Boeing 787 better. Its more fuel efficient and faster.
Also many airports have to do expensive upgrades just to accomidate the A380. Not worth it in many people's eyes.
". The aircraft[787] is swift and fuel efficient, with a cruising speed of Mach 0.85. It is smaller and can access regional airports without fuss. It also has a range that can extend to 16,000km carrying about 280 passengers. The good news for passengers is the B-787 is pressurised for a lower altitude and with higher cabin humidity."

but 787 is just the PPT imagination at this point where A380 already flies...And, you cannot compare those two -- it is like comparing the 335 e92 with the minivan...
