WP7 beats Android & iPhone 4S for phone of the year.

I have an LG Vortex. Now, by and large this was a budget phone even one year ago when I got it with my renewed Verizon contract. With that said, the hardware itself is actually admirable and I rather enjoy it. However, the problems I've heard of other people having with their Android phones seem numerous, and I find myself sharing a few with them.

 

The most prominent is the fact that the system seems to, on occasion and not all the time, turn the screen off when I enter my pin/password. This isn't a hardware problem, it's definitely the Android system being bitchy. It's incredibly annoying because I have to restart the system to fix it.

 

Next is another occasional issue with entering my pin where somehow it stretches the vertical display like it was meant for horizontal; meaning there are numbers I simply cannot access when entering my pin. Again, requires a restart to fix.

 

I've had a few others, but I trust this will suffice. My point is that, this phone uses Android 2.2 and it has some pretty unsettling issues. It's not a gamebreaker, but getting these issues on occasion is rather annoying at best.

 

I'd rather not get an iPhone, so the only other option besides Android and iOS is Windows Phone. I got to play around with the AT&T one on display at a local Best Buy. I simply can't wait for my contract with Verizon to expire so I can get one. I'm not too big into apps, so I think a low priced Windows Phone that doesn't lag while using its interface like my Vortex will be great for me. :)

The thing you said about it stretching the screen out vertically instead of horizontally also happens to her phone.  I'll let her know to restart it instead of swearing at it.
