Minus the MyPhone which I barely use..
Design
1. LG G3 Beat
2. Xiaomi Mi 3
3. Motorola Moto E2 4G
4. Microsoft Lumia 640
iPhone 7 likely ranks at #3. Kinda average design. If it looked like SE, maybe #1 or #2.
Ergonomics
1. Motorola Moto E2 4G
2. LG G3 Beat
3. Microsoft Lumia 640
4. Xiaomi Mi 3
iPhone 7 likely ranks at #3. Neither SE or 7 can beat the ergonomics of the Moto E. Offspring of the Moto X & G from 2013. 130mm is the bull's eye height for me.
Watching Videos
1. LG G3 Beat
2. Motorola Moto E2 4G
3. Microsoft Lumia 640
4. Xiaomi Mi 3
iPhone 7 likely ranks at #4. Lack of multiple video formats, pain to organize them, and no folders. MX Player rules. LG and Moto also carry my 64gb sd card.
Music Listening (Internal/External)
1. LG G3 Beat
2. Motorola Moto E2 4G
3. Microsoft Lumia 640
4. Xiaomi Mi 3
iPhone 7 likely ranks at #1. Apple is this generation's Sony with audio.
Camera
1. Microsoft Lumia 640
2. LG G3 Beat
3. Xiaomi Mi 3
4. Motorola Moto E2 4G
iPhone 7 likely ranks #1. Pretty obvious. Waterproofing to boot. Although probably below my Androids in photo viewing because it doesn't have QuickPic and organizing albums is a hassle.
Games
1. Xiaomi Mi 3
2. Motorola Moto E2 4G
3. LG G3 Beat
4. Microsoft Lumia 640
iPhone 7 likely ranks #1. Best GPU. LG and Lumia are close to deadheat since they share the same exact SoC.
Texting
1. Motorola Moto E2 4G
2. Xiaomi Mi 3
3. LG G3 Beat
4. Microsoft Lumia 640
iPhone 7 likely ranks #4. SwiftKey rules but sucks on iOS. QuickType has an inferior predictive system. But iOS does have superior emojis than WP default. Part reason why Moto also wins is ergonomics.
Battery Life
1. Motorola Moto E2 4G
2. LG G3 Beat
3. Microsoft Lumia 640
4. Xiaomi Mi 3
iPhone 7 could rank from #1-#4. That first three is actually quite fantastic. The Xiaomi when it was new was on par with all of them. If 7 is similar to SE, then #1. If similar to 6s, then Top 3. The 7 Plus and Pro models likely tops the regular 7 easily.
Phone
1. Microsoft Lumia 640
2. LG G3 Beat
3. Xiaomi Mi 3
4. Motorola Moto E2 4G
iPhone 7 likely ranks at #2 or #3. I doubt Apple beating Nokia. Reception on the Lumia is like talking on a landline. Clear and loud on both ends, and I live where there are dead spots. LG is also pretty loud too.
Browsing / Internet
1. Xiaomi Mi 3
2. Motorola Moto E2 4G
3. LG G3 Beat
4. Microsoft Lumia 640
iPhone 7 likely ranks #4. Shocking but remember I can't download videos and other files on its browser. Safari will beat UC Browser or IE on WP. Part reason here is because while browsing will be the fastest on iOS, it lacks a file manager. Xiaomi is like my adult site downloader and browser. And no torrent apps or TubeMate for iOS.
Mobile OS
1. Android
2. Windows Phone
3. iOS
iOS might be #2 for me again after I jailbreak it thanks to more apps and tweaks.
Overall -
1. LG G3 Beat
2. Motorola Moto E2 4G
3. Microsoft Lumia 640
4. Xiaomi Mi 3
iPhone 7 will likely be between #3 or #4 since the $30 Lumia 640 has 32gb sd card, removable battery, etc. The iPhone mainly for camera, music, and games.
Just because it is the most expensive phone, fastest, best-looking, or best camera doesn't always mean it will be a favorite of mine to use since I have specific things I look for. LG has the laggiest UI although I smoothed it out, but for some reason I like it the best right now since excels in all the other areas. But I try to love them all equally like my family...
Live together. Die alone.
