Ask HN: What phone do you use?

Nexus 4. First purchase outside the Apple ecosystem and aside from the size, I couldn't be happier.

Mind, if I could've got an iPhone 5 cheaper without a contract I might've done that anyways (mostly for the convenience, size and a slightly better camera).

But aside from pricing, I was getting a little annoyed by the experience of having to wait a long time for a jailbreak, and now that I actually have an Android device I became aware I'm more of a tinkerer and like the freedom much more than I thought I would.

Motorola Droid 3. Would be a great device, but Motorola stopped releasing updates for it because it didn't sell too well. The stock ROM updates to android GB (2.3). While the android community has managed to get ICS and JB on the phone successfully, the camera sensor drivers need to be reverse-engineered to be used with android 4.x which doesn't look very probable. It's a shame the folks at Motorola can't help out at all or at least provide the devs with some specs. I guess Moto doesn't want to release their smartphone camera driver secrets to the world...

Really hoping someone puts out a android phone with a keyboard that will actually get updates.

This would be better handled as a poll:

Nokia 3315. Twelve years old. I recharge it every three weeks and access to the phone network costs me $10 per month.

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Ace to play MP3s. When I used it as a phone, it had to be recharged every two days and cost me $15 per month.

I went back to using the Nokia.

iPhone 5. I've had it since September and it does what I need. I'll be happy to keep it for at least 2 years (assuming there isn't a huge leap forward in battery tech)

Nexus 4 It's big, but it's amazing and untainted by OEM crap.

Apple iPhone 4S... I hesitate to say "phone". It's great at browsing the internet but it's pretty useless at making phone calls!

Nokia N900 today. I have ordered a Nexus 4 on the recommendation of several friends and expect it to arrive before Friday.

Galaxy Nexus. Would have a Nexus 4, but Google hasn't released a CDMA version and I'm stuck on Verizon for now.

I use an LG GT540. It is pretty slow and buggy with the ram i am using, though... no. I hate it. Really.

Sanyo Pro 200! It's mediocre at browsing the internet, but great at making phone calls!

Galaxy Nexus (Would have the Nexus 4, but no carrier that supports it in my area)

A Samsung Galaxy S running CyanogenMod 10.1 (Android 4.2)

Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Samsung Intensity II.

It's not a smart phone.

iPhone 4s. iPhone 5 wasn't a big enough reason to upgrade, which would be the first time in a while I didn't upgrade yearly.

Nexus S. New Nexus screens are too big for me.

Nexus 4, because it has a barometer!

iPhone 5. So far pleased, but hoping Apple can keep up with innovation.

Droid 4! It has a keyboard!

Galaxy S3

Nexus 4

An old flip phone.

Galaxy Note N7000.

Nokia Lumia 800

HTC Amaze 4G

HTC EVO 4G

I recently switched to the Windows Phone 8 and I freaking LOVE IT. Specifically its the Lumia 920, and oh man is it swish. Really makes the iPhone look dated.
