Need help with picking a smartphone.

[Angealy]

Hello, so about two years ago around this time i ended up getting a Cosmos 2 LG, it a pretty basic phone but it did what i needed at the time.

 

My two years are up and i can now get a smartphone.

 

In case, i wasn't clear enough this will be my first time using/getting a smartphone.

 

Now i know, most of my family have Apple and Window Phones.

 

But i still don't have an idea of what kind of phone i'd like to get.

 

So that's where all you wonderful people come in, if you have any advice on a phone i should get i would appreciate it a lot.

 

Thank you for your time.

What is your budget?

What do you like in your phone, ease of use (and a closed ecosystem) or features and the ability to tinker with everything?

How big do you want your phone to be? (4' = iphone 5s; 4,5'=moto X; 5'=Nexus 5, etc) 

Do you want good build quality (aluminium vs plastic)?

Do you want front-facing speakers in your phone?

If your family as an iphone get an iphone, its just easy to use

If you're feeling adventurous get a HTC one or S4

Simplistic? (Just works).

 

Advanced? (able to change things around).

We need more info like what size phone you want, what you use it for most, what features you look for...your inquiry is too open ended.

M8, Iphone 5, or 6 depending on when you plan to buy it. Nexus 5, Moto X

I'm getting HTC one M8

@Thibaudv: I'd say free-100$ max, as for what i like in my phone, i'd say ease of use, a good build quality aluminium, front facing speakers, i don't mind.

 

@Phage:Yeah, i'm pretty much looking for something that just turns on and works for me you know?

 

@NuroKnight: Verizon, free to about 100$, Simplistic, yes something that just turns on and works,i don't think so.

 

@dizmo: Well i have small hands, so i don't want something to big, I would also use it for everyday life and task like watching

 

youtube,twitch.tv, music, pictures, so on when i'm not at my desktop.

HTC One fits the bill.
