What is your favorite device?

Hi everyone, I have been wondering what people think is the best phone on the market and why?
This thread is designed for those who want to purchase a new phone, but don't want to buy something that is only hyped and has no substance. By the people, For the People!
Please state the phone and your reason why it is your personal favorite. (Note: It could be any phone, even the iPhone 4.)
Thanks To all those who post!

I thought the Motorola Dynatac 800X was pretty coollio, last week!

My favorite phone by all means is (because I own it) HTC HD2. Mines is a TMOUS, but if you are planning on buying one get the world version its universal. Here is a video (not mine) on why the HD2 is better than iPhone 3GS in versus type explanation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9cOMoouatY&feature=related . The HD2 is a versatile device. It has the capability of running Windows Mobile 6.5, Windows Mobile 6.5.x, and new to the device many versions of android. I personally enjoy its big 4.3 inch screen. It has a pretty good 5 megapixel camera with a dual LED flash.
Exception: The phone overheats alot!

That's funny,

There are way to many phones out there to choose from. Money is also a variable. I have a HTC Doual Touch and I am happy with it for now. I am aware that it is not the best but it is good enough.

Whats funny is this was a monutmental breakthrough in cellular phones. The precvious model looked like a car battery with a phone on top. My neighboor got the first car/cell phone ever made and showed it off to the neighboorhood. It was funny because no one ,,,, got it. No one understood what that big ass cynderblock represented and what it would lead too. So when ever I see the older cell phones I think back to the original and laugh thinking, if you'd been carrying that car battery the past 2 years this thing looks like its from startrek.

I here there will be a new Brick just around the corner

WTF, mine never overheated, and im using it so hard >.<!
my favorite is the htc hd2 too, but thats because i love winmo, and i love the option to boot android too (wich works just awsome, better then i thought).
but for a totaly new person, i wouldnt recommend to buy a winmo 6.5 phone, cause that OS is sadly dying more and more, and the hd2 will probably the last winmo device.. ;(
i would wait for a new phone to come out..

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=599210

I'd go for the hd2, I don't own it. But I like the device.
sent from my x10i that is banging for a 2.1 upgrade. ...

Now i have a motorola dext. pretty good phone, really.
But i love the NexusOne and the HD2, if i have money i buy one.

I love my HD2. Even before I Android running on it. WinMo is smooth as silk on it. I love options too.

I love my diamond,if i have money i would buy a desire!

Well,mine is the Desire.I own it,I love Android,I love the device itself and would recommend it to everyone!

Thanks for the Replies

Wow, everyone seems to LOVE the HD2 here, and HATE it on howardforums.
I really don't know what to do. :/

i just got my new n shiny galaxy s n i m just lovin it..

To me:
Android: Dell Streak
Winmo: HD2
WinPhone 7: whatever next from HTC

I love my X10a, it's super good looking

I have a vibrant and hd2...I don't like my hd2...I would say any of the new samsung galaxy s phones with the new bright colorfull screens!

I tried the vibrant (first time i left htc android phones) and i was extreamly disapointed just because of that i wouldnt :/ but thats just me

I think the difference here would be the updates would be coming from google not samsung, hardware on my old vibrant was awesome, well except the plastic feel, its software that held it back.
Btw love the look and feel of my mt4g better
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

I am. I am a Vibrant owner transitioning to MT4G. Transition has not been smooth: Both handsets I have been sent so far have dust under the screen. Plus I really don't like the MT4G screen...

Only thing is the plastic build, why Samsung?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

Hell no! Why would I want to leave what I have now for a plastic feeling phone? Plus, if you ask me its a downgrade. No 4G, really? This is where they lost me. Why build what most will look at as a super phone, but leave out the new speeds in 4G? I rather have 4G over gingerbread any day.

biggest deal breaker for me is no HSPA+

Nobody ever said it didn't come with HSPA+. I doubt that it wouldn't if it is to be such a big hit for them. I also came from a Vibrant and like everyone said, the hardware was great but the software and Samsung support wasn't.
I like the mt4G and I'll stick with it until something more revolutionary comes out. The Nexus S just looks like an iphone wannabe to me (in terms of looks). No thanks.

Yeah...don't jump with "No HSPA+ love"
I have to say, this looks promising, and if it has at least the specs of Galaxy S + HSPA+LED Flash+ FF Camera/Video Chat... Aaaand Gingerbread!!! THAT's the killer folks....
SUX PART for me...... my MT4G is coming in mail in the next few days.

I would never give up my MT4G for a Samsung phone even though updates will come from Google I've been burned way to many times by different Samsung phones I've had in the past not gonna take the chance. If it was a HTC that would be a whole different ball game.

If I had know it was coming out soon I would've waited to check it out.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

I'm interested, but I really enjoy this myTouch 4G.
I had the Vibrant, and absolutely loved it save for two things: the GPS/Compass problem (which was never fixed), and the lag in the OS. Besides that, I loved the screen and the media playback.
The Nexus S would have to pull some **** to woo me. I'm talking: first-party docks, physical camera button, HSPA+.
Depending on how nice Android 2.3 'Gingerbread' is, I might buy one just to play around with it, before I decide if I'm going to hold onto the myTouch 4G for a while. If T-Mo doesn't plan on updating the firmware, then that may weigh in on my decision. Otherwise, the myTouch 4G is kind of everything I was waiting for, with a little bit of stupid carrier bloat.
I read somewhere that T-Mo stated something along the lines of: '...we're not going to update the firmware unless there's a real reason to', in regards to the myTouch 4G. If that's the case, I may return it.
For now, I just want to enjoy this awesome phone. This is hard, of course, when 4-5 of the nicest phones you've ever seen leaked today. What a crazy day!

If the Nexus S was made by HTC I'd either be be crying my eyes out right now or be racing to the nearest t-mobile store with my MT4G all nicely packed up and ready to go (today is last day of my remorse period). I was a bit reluctant to buy the MT4G because I was really wanting a Nexus 2. Ended up liking the MT4G so much that I was quite content giving up on the Nexus 2, especially since we have perm-root. Now that I know the Nexus S is made by Samsung I couldn't be happier with my decision not to wait around.
Oh and according to the leaked BestBuy documents the Nexus S supports EDGE/GPRS 850/900/1800/1900MHz, HSUPA 5.76/7.2 900/1700/2100MHz, HSUPA 5.76/7.2 900/1700/2100. Anything missing?

If this has a non-RFS based filesystem and a working GPS, it could be a nice phone.
However, the new Samsung phone coming in February looks nicer with a larger, s-amoled 2 screen and HSDPA+ but it doesn't seem to have a FFC.

The first thing I noticed was the absence of a track ball/pad. That made cursor navigation VERY frustrating on the Vibrant. Plus, they kept that ity-bity volume rocker. I’ll bet that wee power button is positioned the same too. That made me want to pull my teeth out. I don’t see any REAL evidence of a notification LED, as the proxy/light sensors can be mistaken for just that. I shudder to think it has the same GPS and compass hardware as the Galaxy S line. The leaked spec sheet shows NO HSPA+. Same Vibrant all-plastic body too.
Without more evidence I will assume that the Nexus S is just a Vibrant with a bigger screen, FFC & LED flash. Pretty much what the Vibrant SHOULD have been on release.
Gingerbread? We’ll all have that in time. Especially on current rooted phones. Faster CPU? Doubtful. Who cares, if my above assumptions are even half correct.
Absolutely not what I would expect from something branded as a Nexus. SAMOLED is nice though. MT4G wins in my book.

http://www.tmonews.com/2010/11/nexus-s-specs-leaked/ Nexus S may not has HSPA+

I must say I'm definitely intrigued. I own the MT4G and I'm definitely happy with it but I am curious about the Nexus S mostly because Nexus One was considered such a good phone and I figure follow up to it has to be just as good if not better.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

Let's not forget that G2 and MT4G is T-Mo's own branding and marketing so "T-Mobile phone = HSPA+ love"

Why are you guys liking the MT4G when it has dust under the screen? Should just go for the Nexus S

That would only hold true if both phones were made by the same manufacturer. Since the N1 was made by HTC and the Nexus S by Samsung all bets are off. For what it's worth this phone could be called anything. Just because it's called Nexus doesn't mean it'll follow up where the N1 left off.

Considering Getting This

I'm sure you've had several threads on this, but should I return my Galaxy S 4G for the G2x? Is that big a boost in performance? I love stock Android, hate Touchwiz, but the Galaxy S has an amazing screen. Also, does the app Wiimote Controller work with the G2x?

Huge boost in performance. The G2x works like "butter" as many have been saying. G2x's screen is amazing, some are saying it's one of the best on the market right now and even outshines some of Samsung's screens. Wiimote does not work YET due to LG adding in their own bluetooth stacks into the phone instead of the more common ones, however it's generally believed that a ROM (Probably Cyanogen) or a software mod will fix the issue. Hope this helps!

NO reboots
NO data problems
NO screenlock death
minor bleeding but its only @ 100% brightness and in a dark room

I exchanged my Galaxy S. for the T-Mobile G2X. Yes, the screen is a big change, the Galaxy has a much better screen. But after about 10 days, I've forgotten the difference and was really enjoying the speed increase of the G2X. If you think you can get over the change in the screen, go for it, if you don't, you better stick with the the galaxy S or wait for the galaxy S II coming out soon.
JMHO

Swapping back and forth between OSes.

First of all, I'm a die hard WP7 user through and through. Social interaction, stability, and quick gaming, as well as a good ecosystem of interconnected services are what I'm after in a phone, and so it's the ideal option for me. That said, I try to be as fair as possible in my judgment of other devices. I recently picked up a Nokia N9 and an Xperia play as alternate phones to my Lumia 800 (which has since been upgraded to the Lumia 900) for comparison purposes. The first thing I tested on these two devices, since it's the one thing I miss on WP7, is emulation. Honestly, despite the perfect controls on the xperia, I kept going back to the more "pure" Linux experience of meego for emulation. This was due primarily to the app emumaster which has all your basic emulators cooked into one app with great developer support and outstanding framework. The xperia's controls are awesome, but the low quality of the ps1 emulators I could find left a lot to be desired. The feature that Android really stole the show with, was the market. I left android October of 2010 for the most part aside from picking up random great deals on Craigslist. I most recently tried the Gnex, and it seemed to have a lot of the issues that put me on the prowl in the first place still, so I was not smitten. However, the progression of the app market is phenomenal, a far cry from the doldrum mess that I was forced to search through in my time with android. The new Google Play point is great and feels a lot less like a beta test than it did before. While I'll always prefer WP7's dynamic UI, I much preferred Meego's to android's. There are no "official" widgets yet, but even without, the three home screens have all the info you need and the lock screen is great. It offers a, "sleeping clock" feature where even when the phone is asleep, the clock is still displayed, as well as your notifications. After double tapping on that, you have more specific notifications over a background pic of your choosing, you can swipe on any of these to open the app direct, or just swipe the whole homescreen off which leads to the homescreens, one has all your apps complete with folders. The next, shows all the apps you have currently running. True multi-tasking an astonishing 19 apps and no real hiccups. Amazing. Then, there's your notifications tab, it keeps your notifications as well as a list of your social network mews feed on hand. Everything just feels easy and intuitive. Android, sadly, still felt pretty much the same, I guess if it's not broke, don't fix it, but there's better UI options. Overall, the xperia Play got the least play, not because it's a bad device, but it's just not what I need. The N9 is great, but suffers some of the same issues android does. It is, however, a good meeting point between android and WP7 and was abandoned far too early. Neither pulled me from WP7, but unfortunately, I now try to double-tap my 900 to unlock it.

The Lumia 900 seems to be doing quite well for itself, replacing the iPhone as ATT's hero device. I can't wait to see what the 610 does in India.

I read somewhere that at&t associates doin a disservice for customers. It seems iPhone is still the hero device, salespeople still pushing the iPhone and not giving the lumia900 a chance.

Wow for them just to say that I will say one thing well a couple.
1st smart phone - w as iPhone 3GS 16gb. Loved it..... When I had it.
2 nd smart phone - htc hd7. Was okay not many apps. Hated metro tiles.
3rd smart phone -galaxy s2 i9100- LOVE IT MORE THEN ANYTHING. Awesome phone. Went to go get a iPhone 4s . But I thought and my friend said u have to try andriod. Now he was right not goin to any other Os ever again.
For her to say iPhone as a high end device is funny.

Your first phone you were truly happy with?

For me, the E72 was my first complete phone, it had wifi it had GPS, it had everything i could possibly ever want... it was not until i upgraded to the samsung galaxy 1 did i feel wow, this is everything i ever wanted from a phone but was it?..
For me, to make the perfect phone, it has to be something along the lines of galaxy nexus with micro sd card with the ability of being drop proof, water proof, etc etc....
and we're getting close, but the first phone i was happy with has to be the E72 for what it had to offer and it's long battery life.

I didn't find phone satisfaction until I got the Samsung Epic Touch (sgii). It honestly does what I want it to do, fast... I came from the TP2 so it was definitely a performance jump. Great phone!

SGA->Nice design
Iphone 4s-> Just works (battery life sucks tho)
So I'm waiting 4 tha S3

This is kind of a loaded question. Every time I change I'm usually happier than with what I had before. My first phone was the Motorola brick in '91 so my second phone was a mind-blowing device compared to that one. As far as all-time fave during a particular time it would have to be a Samsung Epix. All the radios, push email, 3G tethering, etc. At that time, it was da bomb. Now, it's a resistive screen, stylus-dependent POS. Funny though, I still carry one of those POS's in my bag in case I'm not near a hotspot and need quick connectivity.

HTC Aria, it was my first "smart" phone and I love it still using it actually.

It is in human nature to always be looking for the next thing, you may get the biggest baddest fastest, but guess what there is going to be one better and soon too! However, there does come a point when technology will start to outrun its self, though I am not sure when... Once quad core phones actually start making a place in the market I am sure there will be a lot of satisfied tech heads.
For me however, I have only ever owned the EVO 4g and love it, though there are some fatal flaws and obviously it is becoming dated. The EVO LTE for me will be the next "perfect" phone, despite the overly protected bootloader... http://goo.gl/3T4NK

I was pretty happy with my old RAZR, even though it was the locked-down Verizon version. It got water damaged when it sat in my pocket during a rainstorm, but it came back to life and kept working for another year or so.
Eventually I wanted to strike off on my own and get a smartphone. The first one I had was a Samsung Moment. Needless to say, I hated it. I upgraded to an Epic 4G, and it's been much nicer. I really love this phone actually, it's fast, durable, and it has a very active development community and is very easy to hack.
Despite owning a Moment, the Epic redeemed Samsung in my eyes. Their phones are much more interesting to me now because unlike HTC and Motorola, they don't lock them down and make them difficult to hack.

evo for smart phone..
startac back in the day..

My HTC DHD is pretty cool, not happy with the screen's touch response though. The search continues.

Samsung i5500, an old model, but a very solid piece of hardware and cheap!

My Samsung Captivate when it was running cm7. It was as smooth as my GSII skyrocket is now. Minus the data speeds of course.

Samsung Nexus S with CM9 on it

I would say it was the HTC Advantage X7501. It was a mobile powerhouse. 3G, wifi, GPS, tethering, 8GB on board memory with an additonal card slot, vga/svideo out, and touch screen. Also had a detachable physical keyboard and a 5 in. screen. I still have it and it's still works fine. I thought of selling it many times, but just can't let it go.

I like phones that have groundbreaking features for their time, so mine would be:

The first phone I was ever truly satisfied with was the Evo 4g. It was as fast as any smartphone during its time and the dev community was beyond amazing. I could flash a ROM 3 times a week for months and not flash the same ROM twice. There was friendly competition (Myn's Warm vs Mikfroyo vs Koni's Elite Series III) for best ROM, there were ports (Synergy, Virus' Kingdom ROM, Mikz, Mikg, etc), there was aosp (cm7, just gingerbread w/no cm, MIUI, many cm7 kangs), there were kernels (netarchy, tiamat, msm79723's sbc charging kernel).
I got over 24 hours of battery life back then, the phone didn't lag enough for me to care and there was always something going on with that phone. It was a great community to be a part of and the phone itself was pretty *****in too.
I have the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and while that doesn't qualify as a phone, I've been happy as can be with it as well. It doesn't have the dev community I like oh so much, but Sixaxis compatibility + NHL Gamecenter + big giant screen = pure win for me.
