My all time favorite... My Galaxy S2. When it was announced in Korea I just knew I had to get that phone. I spent months looking at YouTube videos of it until it came out in the US. It didn't have the physical home button but it was still the smoothest and most beautiful Android phone I had ever used. Also, it's GPS was amazing as I had the Captivate before it and that was horrendous.

My favorite phone that I never had the privilege of owning was the Xperia X1 and X2. These phones took beauty to an entirely new level.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cue_32:
Glad you reminded me of the Xperia...

Let's make this even more interesting... How about your worst smartphone ever, or at least the most disappointing "smartphone"?

Mine would have to be the Xperia X10, out of the box. I feel sorry for my wife when I tried to sway her away from her 3Gs to Android via Xperia X10. Let's just say she's not fond of Android up to now.

OP Updated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jerrygooch:
The phone I'll always be fond of would be my old Atrix. The phone I liked the least was my iPhone 3G.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cue_32:
Agreed...I can't even count how many people I convinced to go iPhone when I was rocking the 3G. It was..."revolutionary" ;)

Least favorite phone was the LG Thrill. I got it dirt cheap off contract at Amazon, and went through 3 in 2 weeks before getting a refund. The last one got so hot, the metal strip on the back burned me, and the adhesive around the screen melted, leaving black goop dripping down inside the digitizer. Add in horrid dev support and battery life that could maybe hit 10 hours with minimal usage... UGH

I should have learned my lesson from when I was a repair tech at Sprint. The LG Rumor (original) was so god damned faulty... The charging port would break if a baby sneezed near it, and the cable connecting both halves would rub between the metal casing, so eventually the cable WOULD short out and kill the phone. Eventually we got so sick of replacing them (repairs would take a good 2 hours per phone due to overly complicated engineering), we gave anyone who wanted it a free Rumor 2, no questions asked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
For me it was the captivate, Imo the nicest sgs and the phone that made Samsung rule the galaxy... I couldn't go back to it as a daily driver now after using the sgs2 and 3 thought
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bruce Lee:
Mine has to be the phone i am currently using. My sgs3. It was all the hype and then getting it that makes it my favorite. Plus its fast, great specs/features, great camera, and lte. I couldnt go wrong.

My least favorite was the xperia x10. Camera was good back then but mine origial x10 had a mother board crash and even my replacement overheated and the ram was terrible too.

I was going to say my atrix with the lapdock for my favorite but the camera is what made me upgrade.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] avarize:
I miss my blackberry from time to time
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pizz0wn3d:
Definitely the captivate. I got it when I finally got sick enough of Apple's ****ty software and dealing with all of the jailbreak work-arounds (and their "updates" just stealing ideas from JB apps, like sorting apps into folders, etc). Touchwiz almost sent me back to get an iPhone 4, but custom launchers + XDA saved me from relapse ;P

Worst phone? The Quickfire by far. It had a decent keyboard, and that was it. The touchscreen barely worked and it would completely lock up every single time I received an sms.

The first smart phone I had was an audiovox v7700 running mobileos I believe. it will always have a place in my heart, even though it was a slow pos compared to what we have now.

My infuse was my first android and therefore will always be the phone that redeemed my soul from ios.

But my favorite phone as of now is the sgs3 hands down.

The phone closest to my heart was definitely my Aria, I ditched my iPhone for that little beast and never looked back :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thin_aire:
I really enjoyed the T-Mobile Pocket-PC / HTC Wallaby which I believe was the original XDA device. A lot of what is called "Revolutionary" today was in place on that phone years before. Unfortunately it took world a few more years to create the networks and the economics to support a "Smartphone" in most people hands.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Maturola:
Same here, before my GS3, my iP4 was my favorite smartphone, my best ever was my Motorola Startac back in the day, first mobile phone you could actually put in your pocket LOL

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] knightblaze:
The Samsung Blackjack 2. Could care less about the os, but i loved the maroon/red version and loved the physical keybkard on it. Phone felt fantastic to hold. My least favorite was the g1. I had suck a horrible time trying to get one(i had about $1500 dollars tied up between contract cancellations, two phone contract sign ups, temporary devices until my g1's came and then dumping said two new lines for another two lines and bbb'ing the non corporate tmobile store.

In the end i got reimbursed by tmobile corporate for the actions of the third party since they didnt want it to reflect on them(great cs).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cundiffr:
I would have to say my favorite phone(s) is the GSM Galaxy Nexus and the Samsung Vibrant, ive had the nexus s which I liked. The Vibrant is what got me into rooting and crack flashing. My worst smart phone is the moto cliq. Never owned a motorola after that. I regularly go back and forth between the gnex and my s3. There's just something about stock android on a nexus I can't live without :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ppluissz:
BB 9780. Really stable and battery saver phone loved it. Shame you have to be in a blackberry plan to use Facebook and common apps like mail, etc. The S3 is on its way though lol.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jello24:
Favorite Smartphone: Sammy Galaxy S III, simply because of the performance level

Favorite DD phone: Nexus S with Bugless Beast ROM, simply the most stable setup I've ever had. Went months without crashing.

Favorite phone of all time: Vodafone (Sharp) 904SH, the first phone I ever bought off contract. What. A. Beast.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tenorntex:
I know i might be alone, but I would have to say my favorite would be my Dell Streak 5. It may have its limitations as far as development goes, but I have yet to find another that matches the size and landscape capabilities combination. I only wish the S3 was better in landscape. Other than that, I am loving my S3.

Samsung SII GTi9100. Lots of great of great roms and development from the community made this phone great.

I know everyone here is hating on the x10 and with fairly good reason, but I just want to say that even though I wanted to smash my x10 hundreds of times I still love it. It was my first android phone and although it went through a lot of b.s. with sony and att, somehow it managed to go from 1.6 to ics (with help from xda)! I learned so much from that phone that it will always have a place near and dear to my heart...that being said I really love the sIII!

I had a SE W580i, it was compact and got me into J2ME development..as far as smart phones go, I loved my x10, thanks only to the great zhidzu.. I pushed its limits as far as I could, I used it so much the chrome came off. However, recently it began randomly powering down.. I will undoubtedly fix it so I can develop on it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] EddyVercetti:
iPhone... sike! I always loved the keyboard and dual screens on my old Samsung DoubleTime, but its hardware limitations kind of ruined it for me. The Samsung Galaxy SIII is by far the best phone I've ever owned.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mtl171:
iPhone 4! Now before you flame, hear me out. I loved the iPhone's build, screen, app selection and battery life. However, what caused me to ultimately switch was my hatred for iTunes and lack of customizability. Never was affected by antennae gate (always had a case) though jailbreaking did make iOS quite unstable.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jordant2:
I don't think anyone would flame because you liked your iPhone. That's what this thread is all about. I would have to say my favorite phone was the Evo 4g. The phone was real solid, one of the first with a 1GHz snapdragon and 4.3" screen. And the development was awesome! They had every ROM possible.

My favorite smartphone before my GS3 has to be the tmobile Samsung Galaxy S vibrant. I've always been a phone geek, but that was my second android phone after the original Droid and at the time I was completely satisfied.

My worst would be my iphone 4. After the newness wore off I missed how open the Android os is etc. That being said other than the Galaxy note ii and my sg3, I will be content

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ssbmg:
HTC evo 4g. Came from a touch pro 2 and palm pre (which I also loved but didn't support corporate exchange security policy). That evo was by far the biggest leap forward from anything else I'd ever used. The 4.3" screen was I believe the biggest on the market, the OS was lightning fast for it's time, great camera, I could go on. There was nothing I had used previously that came even close to it. I have yet to experience a new phone since the evo that gave me that "holy sh@t" factor in terms of thinking this is leaps and bounds ahead of anything I've ever used.

Worst phone - I think it was called the T-Mobile mda or something like that. The one with the slide out keyboard and was like 2" thick. Old windows mobile 5 and the touch screen was useless.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cue_32:
I agree with you 100%. I switch to iOS once in a while (when the new iPhone is released). The iPhone was my 1st real smartphone (LG Vu was right before my 3G), but I'm a flash addict and love widgets too much, so I end up going back to my Android.

+1 The Evo 4G was my favorite and the longest phone I've had. The development for it was unbelievable. Since those days I haven't been able to keep a phone for more then 6 months.

It was small, had great battery life, great camera, good music player, and had this cool feature where you could record the name of people in your contact list, and is would speak it back to you when they called.

I think it was the last phone I owned before moving to a smartphone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jordant2:
Yeah the Evo was a ground breaking Android device. The only knock on that phone, battery life was pathetic! Otherwise it was great, I had it for over a year. Since then... I haven't even made it 4 months with the same phone!

Most memorable phone: My HTC Desize Z... still have fond memories of it. It is still running up to this day, although my brother now uses it... I feel like I want to get hims some other phone just so that I can have it back... haha

Although, I'm still keeping my Xperia X1... That was the phone that started it all for me... Back then everyone was like, "OMG you have the Xperia! Can I see it! OMG OMG, you have a computer in your pocket! So awesome" I flashed ROMS, broke it's NAND (too much flashing), hahahaha,

The worst phone I had was the LG Xenon... I only had for about 3 days, before I got my Xperia.... haha, really the interface sucks ass, I was very limited with it... I didn't like it at all.
