Windows Phone 7. It just feels right to me. Then iOS. Then Android. Android just feels glitchy and messy to me. Like it trying to hard. I've never tried all the different Androids though, only Motorola and HTC. I guess that's also part of the problem. Fragmentation and the different manufacturer skins all make android seem like different products. Not a single entity that is analogous to the other operating systems.

I've tried only Android and iOS...and I prefer iOS because I like the Evo...larger screen and offers an easier way to access the phone with more software options. I'm currently developing on Android and it's super awesome and easy. I'm thinking of going to Windows phone 7 because developing for Android is not protected...

Having owned at least one phone with each of the OS' in this topic. I have personally came away way more pleased with Windows Phone 7. The claims of iOS being more stable is utter BS< because one update can wreck total havoc to the stability of your iPhone (which I have experienced a few times.) I have also had syncing and updating issues with iOS. Not to mention I always thought it's a better idea to set my iPhone on fire than back it up through iTunes.

I had my iPhone 4 for a week and it convinced me to switch to Andriod which I really enjoyed until it came to my first update and the stability went right out the window and it restarted itself way more than any iPhone I used. But then they updated it again and all was well again. But I had a nagging urge to try out Windows Phone 7. And was so glad I did. While it's not on pr with an Andriod phone in terms of functionality. The UI and stability, speed and it's ability to sync itself to my accounts surpassed it in every way. Andriod syncs well with Google accounts. WP7 syncs well with anything I threw at it. I was surprised how fast and well the phone pulled up my contacts from my Google account. It honestly did it better than Andriod. Plus WP7 uses the Zune software which has been a total joy to use. I honestly can't see myself going back to Android. I enjoyed my time with the OS, but I found WP7 to be better overall. I know for damn sure I will never even look at getting another iPhone. That phone was misery for me. So WP7 > Android > iOS for me

My girlfriend has an iphone and I have an android of comparable price, and she hates it now that she's seen android. But if you're the kind of person who likes Macs, iphone might be for you. Android is to PC what iphone is to Mac.

Lol Android of course. Unless you are the type that likes to be restricted with what you can do. Then I guess you might pick IOS.

Mostly for video and music streaming from websites that don't offer a mobile alternative.

android. all things can come down to preferences but some of the displays on android devices blow the retina display out of the water. i have a samsung galaxy s, and its super AMOLED screen is brilliant in every sense of the word. incredibly vivid colors with the deepest blacks i have ever seen on a display, and all the reviews say the galaxy s II has a superior display so i can only imagine what that looks like.

Well I can see the differences from the large screens vs retina displays. All it is really is higher pixel density in a smaller screen. If that was the case on my Evo...oh man that would be awesome!
