    update - 3/31/13:

    I'm kinda leaning towards the IPhone 5 because of it's processing speed

    Apple beats all. :P I mainly work on the forums from my IPad an the only thing I don't like is the autocorrect. Maybe the second best for me would be Galaxy Slll. Awesome stuff. Then Blackberry. The other aren't very good and/or aren't user friendly.

    Nope. apple-android convert, and I must say, I absolutely love my note 2. yes, the big one. luckily, I have big hands, so to each his own, I guess. I would reccomend you the s3, though.

    I would suggest apple iphone. If you know what you're doing you can do a dual boot with android... not that you would need to :P

    I would get the Lumia 920 from these. Two of my friends have it, and it seems to be really good. Galaxy III is a good phone, with android OS which is not as restricted as Windows Phone 8. Then again, I don't like some features of Touch Wizard, and samsung likes to "abandon" models very quickly. I don't know much about the blackberry or galaxy nexus. iPhone 5: If you don't want to customise your phone, and want to pay extra money for the apple logo on the back, get iPhone. I personally wouldn't get one, since I don't like apple and their visions. I want to be the master of my device, I want to be able to do something if it brakes, so I don't want anything from Apple. All these are good phones, but I recommend you to get Lumia. Or if you want to get some software on it or free, then galaxy III.

    I'd say if you want it to look sleek and smooth, get a WP8 phone.
    If you want it to work with loads of apps (only if you have LOTS of internal memory because otherwise it locks down updating and text messaging [!]) and "making it your own", get an Android. The GSIII is a good option.

    So I'm seeing alot of IPhone 5 and Galaxy SIII and a little bit of the Windows Phone, my bro told me you can do a lot more things with an android than an iPhone though. For example, you can use the web browser and talk on the phone at the same time, but iPhone has Siri, and I really want to chat with that lol. And sorry if the font is too big, from what I'm typing and how I see it, it is extra large. It probably isn't too big but yeah I'm on a windows phone :)

    The Galaxy S III has something called Google Now you should check out.
    I suppose you could get an iPhone, it will "just work" very very well. You can as well do stuff with it on the developer side, but it uses Objective-C and it's pretty locked down. (This keeps the app quality up).
    So...
    If you want to be a developer, get the GSIII.
    If you want it to just work, get the iPhone.

    As boxman said, the i-phone will probably run most effortlessly, (I have one myself, and my family owns a mac, but I have pc). Like all apple products, it will feel pretty locked up when you want to mess with it or the system, (which basicly means you can't break it, but you'll find it flawsless.) The GSIII is less locked up and is better if you want more freedom.
