Galaxy Note 3. Great on my Beatsonic dash holder. Big screen for GPS and Bluetooth audio.

HTC One, the first gen, google play experience (stock android). Not many complaints, camera got purpley after dropping it in water but still great in most situations, miserable in the dark. Also the bluetooth works great with the Scion, fires up spotify on it's own on the last playlist I was listening to.

Favorite of my three smartphones and any that I've gotten my hands on has been Samsung Galaxy S2, (the smaller version, non-LTE) with Cyanogenmod on it, I would still be using it if it hadn't bricked one morning. Great size, expandable storage, battery life was good but easy to buy a replacement battery and even swap them out throughout the day, can't tell you how many times I dropped it and dinged it with no consequences.

I despise manufacturer skins of Android and carrier bloat, at this point I'd only buy Nexus or unlocked stock android phones from google, maybe Motorola, wish I had grabbed a wooden backed MotoX but the timing didn't work out, will use the HTC until the battery doesn't hold up, should be early 2016 at that point, maybe Android Silver will materialize by then.

Oh, also had a iphone 3s, was great until Apple crippled it with an update and I realized how much more freedom Android offered, won't go back anytime soon and don't have much faith in Apple.

Actually the purple blotches are the result of a faulty camera sensor and know issue on the HTC One (M7). If you within the manufacturer's warranty period HTC will repair it for free. I recently sent my wife's phone back for this issue are they covered the repair and shipping both ways. They even installed a new housing and display so the phone looks brand new.

Right now I am using a 5S but have really been considering trying out the G3. Only complaint I have for the 5S is when it comes to streaming music through Bluetooth I have to connect every time I get into the car. It never does it on its own like my previous android phones.

Nice range of phones. A lot of the high end phones are so powerful its becoming like the old cpu ghz wars. We need better battery tech and cheaper data/unlimited plans

S4. Time for an upgrade though. Don't know if I should get a G3 or wait for the next Galaxy..

I inherited this phone from another employee in the company only several months ago, so it's not like it's old and I'm tired of it. I was just glad to get rid of the iPhone 4S so I could get rid of its piece of shit iTunes. Good riddance.
