Nokia lumia 920 - very solid, very capable device. 

Because I was bored rigid of Apple (after having all 4 iphones up to 4) and its bland devices and Android is a shit hole of a mess of an ecosystem. (imo)


tl;dr version: I'm a diehard Microsoft fan and will support all of their devices, no matter how inferior they are. 

 

Seriously everyone I know who has a Windows phone or had one in one point of time, all tell me negative things about them, and tell me how badly they suck. On top of that they don't even stack up well in reviews, yikes.

I share most of Kowen's opinion on this subject. Although I still like iOS, it's true that it's a little bland.

I have a windows phone now and to me, it's the best phone OS of them all. I switched from android to that, and never looked back.

Oh, and here's the obligatory anecdotal "everyone I know who tried the interface extensively enjoy the W8 OS more than android." ~__~

Of course, I'm probably sold on everything Microsoft and can't know any better. Right? xD

Galaxy Note2.

I use the shit outta the stylus and love it.

Very fast, great screen, large screen and I'm a big android fan.



Galaxy S4. Because, Android, Neutron, expandable memory, and multiview. iOS is just far too closed for me, and by the time Windows Phone 8 hit, I was already too invested in Android to care.

That said, TW is hideous(despite the great features), the phone is slow as all hell, and prior to the 4.3 update the battery life was nonexistent and the phone got HOT. I'm gonna install a custom ROM on the thing soon, which should fix most of my issues...except for the ugliness, because as much as I hate it, I can no longer live without TW. :(



Galaxy Note 3. S3 gotten too small and slow for me. The Note 3 is quite powerful so it should at least last untilthe Note 5 arives.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

A Nokia N-Gage, Because I had always wanted one when they were first announced and recently had an opportunity to get my hands on a day one model of it, I'm a massive fan of weird and retro and I see it as pretty much the founding father of Smart Phones.

Very odd little phone tho, holding it for gaming always makes me think that no one involved with its design ever picked up a controller for a game ever before that. Playing Elder scrolls on it with a Dpad and 12 face buttons is pretty extreme for even the most nimble of thumb.

Maybe...we ARE :O

I'm from India though n_n

Meh, close enough xD

Although, that may be highly insulting. I wouldn't know though since I have no recollection of my Sri Lankan days.

HTC One.

I fucking LOVE IT!



Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Big bright screen, S-pen, big battery, powerful and has a nice leather alike back case. Pretty much the best phone in the market right now.



PS2|Wii|DS lite|3DS XL|PSP|Android

Samsung Galaxy Nexus... showing its age now.

I bought it because it was relatively cheap for the power it offered, plus it came with Android without any of the hogwash.

My next phone will probably be purchased by the end of the year... hopefully whatever the next Nexus is going to be (I looove the red Nexus 5... but if a Nexus 6 is around the corner, it'll have to be that).
