Not sure if this topic goes here or in the Alternatives forum...I'll just leave this here.
I hated iOS 7 so much that in August/September, I sold my iPhone 5 and bought an HTC One Google play edition. I also wanted a bigger screen. The HTC One was a great phone, but started to have issues in November. Due to its low off-contract price, I bought a Nexus 5 to hold me over while I was getting Google to replace the HTC One, and ended up selling the warranty replacement One. The Nexus 5 lasted me through January, and was a great phone, but I saw a friend's Moto X, purchased on Black Friday, and thought his screen and features were better. Motorola had a fire sale in early February and I sold the Nexus 5 for a custom made Moto X...and really loving the Moto X. This whole time, I found myself getting used to iOS 7 on my iPad Air, and I also found my Android-wielding friends moving to iPhone 5s phones.
So here I am in March. I found a 32GB iPhone 5 on eBay very aggressively priced with a SquareTrade warranty, and I now own it. It had a lock button issue, but SquareTrade already fixed it and I got a warranty replacement. I still have the Moto X, still love it, and keep it around as a spare phone/gaming system (I'm sure I'll switch back and forth occasionally), but I have to say...it's good to be back.
