Favorite smartphone

Favourites:

Nokia N82 (my 3rd smartphone, but I'd consider it my first 'all-rounded' smartphone - 3.5mm headphone jack, GPS, killer camera)
Lumia 800 (my best-looking smartphone until I got my iPhone 6)
Nexus 4 (great affordable smartphone)
iPhone 6

Dislikes: phablets (got a Note 3, hated it for two reasons - first the size, second TouchWiz)
 
Forever and always will be the Palm Pixi Plus. Best keyboard ever, best UI ever, best size ever.🙂

However, I'm also really digging the BlackBerry Q5, and hope to acquire one soon.

Pfft, my favorite, and one I'm also still rocking, is my 4s. And it's even rumored that this bad boy will get iOS 9 too. That means I'll likely keep this for yet another year. That's 4 years!
 
iPhone 6 Plus. Although of all time it's the iPhone 4. I loved that thing. Still use it as an iPod. It was ahead of it's time. When it was released the retina display just mind blew me when I saw it in person.
 
Surprised at the amount of iPhone 4 votes. Apple... you reading?

I loved and still get nostalgic over one HTC Desire HD. I'll add the iPhone 4 as well.

Can't beat my iPhone 6+ tho. 🙂

Lots of favorite phones! No particular order, except for the Treo which will always have a special place in my heart.

1. Treo 650 - had this for 3 years

Probably my favourite phones of all time also! I still have one (actually, I have three of them) and they all still work! The one in the photo I got in 2006. 😎

I pulled it out a few weeks ago. Here it is beside my (former) Galaxy S5 Active. I returned it after two weeks.

I'm currently using the Acer Liquid Z220 an unlocked dual sim phone I bought from 7-Eleven for $40. It's about the size of an iPhone 4.

No matter how many phones I go through I always come back to my 6+ and Note 4. Can't wait for the Note 5!

Having now had my 6 plus for 7 months I've come to love it as much as I loved my iPhone 4.
 
I just picked up the S6 Edge a few days ago so that is not going to be on the list just yet, but here are mine.

1. Nexus 5 - not the best at anything particularly, but man I loved that phone - it just "felt" right
2. iPhone 6 Plus - the longest I've kept any smartphone so far. It would be #1 if it had more ram.
3. HTC One M7 - I think the first Android phone that I thought of as "better than iPhone" in terms of design & software. There were better functionality phones before (Galaxy S2), but the One M7 married them both beautifully
4. iPhone 5/5s - Love the design and the form factor. I was highly skeptical when they announced it, but once I held it I was sold!
5. Blackberry Bold 9970 - My first smartphone - loved the leather back cover 🙂
 
I love my 6+ but have to agree with many here about the iPhone 4--such a huge change from the 3GS. The new high res display and industrial design--still the best feel in hand of any phone I've owned--were so impactful. A predominantly glass phone may not be practical but is sure looked and felt great.

My other favorite was the HTC One M7, still own it. I have the unlocked, bloat free Developer Edition--still super smooth UI (and it's running Lollipop 😉), perfect size, really nice display and the introduction of those wonderful boom sound speakers. If it only had a good camera, would've deserved smartphone HoF status.
