I'm an Android fan. I have a bunch of Androids now and I will probably get another one soon because my daily driver has so much battery loss.

Actually, I'm very peeved that manufacturers are not giving replaceable batteries. That is true of all of them. I'm disappointed by the battery and expanded storage being phased out. Just have to keep buying the one or two phones that still have those features.

I don`t know what it is??? I had to get a 3g phone because they got rid of 2g in my area, I guess. At least that is what they told me. All Mumbo Jumbo to me. I don`t even know how to make a phone call on it yet and I have had it for a month. Nobody calls that I want to talk to anyways!!

Um.... my choice is not listed. I have what my co-workers call a dumb phone. It's an old school flip phone. I make calls. I receive calls. That's it. That's all I need or want to be able to do. Well, that's not 100% correct. I am planning to upgrade my plan to include data so I can start texting.

We had Windows phones at work until a couple of weeks ago. The company replaced them with Androids. We had Verizon for the provider for the Windows phone. We have T-Mobile for the Android. I absolutely HATE the change. My work cell phone is my only phone for work. There are no T-Mobile towers in the remote area where I work. I have to go stand in the parking lot searching for a couple of bars to be able to use the stinkin' thing! This is NOT the way to conduct business!!!

I've never seen an iphone, but I'm a big fan of Androids and have had a bunch of them over the years...my fiancee is an Xbox nut, so wanted to try the windows phone and it was ok, but didn't survive for very long.... Now he agrees with me and is going back to android....at least until they make some better windows phones...
I figure I'll stay with android and that way between the 2 of us we'll have access to both! LoL >^..^<

I had to pick Android because that is what I have now, but it's a 50/50 toss up for me. I really love Windows phone too. Apple can suck it.

The problem with Windows Phone is the app gap. 3rd party developers have not jumped on the bandwagon and made apps that equal what Apple or Google can offer. The Microsoft Lumia 950XL is an incredible phone. I'm almost wondering if it will be my next phone. But then again I am reminded by the app gap.

Apple all the way. My hubby and I got phones at around the same time 2 years ago. He got a Samsung I got an iPhone. His has been nothing but trouble and is now thinking of switching. I've had nothing but joy and will likely upgrade when contract is up. I have to add we have an iMac desktop and an iPad. The three work together without any hassle. And if you like music Apple is by far the better product I don't care what anyone says!
Thanks for this!

I have 3 Windows phones.


I had an android phone about two years ago, and really liked it, but then their newer phones got all convoluted with a ton of apps and widgets that you can no longer delete off the device only disable, and I prefer my devices as streamlined and simplistic as possible.


Used to work with iPhones and while they're better than android on the above mentioned front, I hate the fact that I have to purchase nearly everything and can't share music, apps and games.

The device already costs a fortune (here at least) I don't think it fair having to pay for everything you want to load on it as well.


Also I hate the fact that there's no expandable storage.


So windows all the way for me, my phones have only the apps I need and want, decent on board storage plus 16GB SD cards in it and amazing battery life.


Very happy customer.

Android. Though I've never tried a Windows phone, so not really sure what that is like.
Thanks for this!
