Favorite phone is probably unreleased. I just can't find a phone that balances everything I want. Google pixel 2, or Moto X4. one of them. Daily driver is an LG G4

Favorite? HP Elite X3

Still waiting to find one in the entire freakin' country.

Daily driver is usually a Lumia 640 LTE. Sometimes swapped with a OnePlus One (got it as a gift), iPhone 5S (got this from work) or a Lumia 1320 (there's slow days at work at times. Bigger screen for them Netflixes)

yeah they are nice. I chose the S7 over the LG G5 and G6 for its design, battery life, existing roms, and better build quality. The small performance bump on the g6 wasnt worth it for me

Why windows phone? I prefer Android and am fine with iOS but the app ecosystem on Windows Phone is crap

I currently have an iPhone 6 Plus that is jailbroken on iOS 9.3.3, still happy with it. Currently waiting for the Note 8 or might just keep my 6 Plus till it actually dies for some reason :)

Nokia 3310, extremely durable. No flex, long battery life. Extremely drop resistance, water proof of up to 8000m over few days. Runs Snake Xenzia at native resolution at decent frame rate.

My favourite phone would be one with a 4" screen and flagship phone specs, so I can use the fucking thing with one hand.

 

As far as I know that doesn't exist. Daily driver is an s5 mini.

iPhone SE? also I am a middle school kid with tiny hands and I can use the S7 fine

i had windows phone for many years, it was far superior until microsoft stopped updating the apps. this "ecosystem" didn't need to exist because my phone could natively do everything it needs without separate apps. it was all built into the OS. htx 8x and lumia 1520

iPhone 6S Plus.

 

Like the 7 Plus (daily), but headphone jack.  For a while I had both an S7e and 6S Plus and iOS really makes Android look like a bloated cobbled together piece of shit.

i would disagree, Grace UX is awesome with the functionality of Stock Android and beauty of iOS. I have my S7 with rounded corners and everything on the S8 homescreen so it looks like the S8

S8 I guess... It is my favorite phone but it isn't the best phone... I wish there was one as good as the s8 in every way just more durable, a back that won't be made of glass mainly, but a few things. S8 is my daily driver tho

in my opinion, the 3 year old iphone design lags behind every galaxy design since the S7. S6 was too uncomfortable to hold

to be honest

 

I am using S5 Neo. I wish it got a fingerprint scanner. Good camera, good battery. Decen performance (does lag a bit but it's so minor)

Actually it's FOR the ecosystem, alongside the battery life. And it's the only mobile OS that lets me use my work e-mail and the wi-fi at work.

Any of my Lumias can get at least a 2-day battery life with normal use (wi-fi on, bluetooth on and connected to my Band, location services on and mobile data on). I kinda like the iPhone in therms of design, but the OS just bothers me to a level I no longer understand. The OnePlus One is there just because I have it and I sometimes lug it around to play some hearthstone at work.

I'm not going to advocate WP over something else. I'll just call it a personal preference.

I'm also not a heavy app user and all of my phones have pretty much the basics installed (Adobe Reader, some sort of Office Suite, Steam, Battle.net Authenticator, Netflix, banking apps and the usual social media apps that usually come pre-installed anyway)
