It says an awful lot about the general quality of Android phones nowadays that there wasn't even room for the LG G3 on this list because there were simply so...many...other brilliant phones.

I've actually owned 3 of these as daily drivers, and have a few things to add!
The G3 turned up in the nominations round, but fell short of the top five, and just a vote or two shy of the Note 4, which would have put it in the honorable mentions.
Nothing wrong with a little wine during the day on a Friday.
Good point—I've always been curious to try this, but haven't taken the plunge, even though I rarely make calls.

Why: It's the best value you can get for the money. If you want the best hardware you can buy, the best customer support you can get, and the best OS support for the hardware, look no further. I suggest buying direct from Google to get the best experience, but I've had mine for almost a year now and I would buy it…
Yeah - ADB backup is a tricky thing. When it works, it works beautifully. When it doesn't....it's kinda wonky and piecemeal. It's definitely easy and cross platform, but it was a can of worms I wasn't sure I wanted to open.
Contigo Autoseal, hands down.
Lots of people at the office I used to work (engineering/construction firm) at had these. A coworker got me one for Christmas and I officially became a member of the cult for these things.
They're indestructible, mine has survived lots of drops and knocks from roof of a car onto gravel. …

because people like to customize their phones. And not everyone likes android. while i like that iphones are easy to use and nice. Its insulting that apple doesn't let people customize their phones. I mean its like have ice cream, and then the ice cream man says that you can not put any sprinkles on top otherwise he…
I really don't see the point of jail breaking anymore. Once upon a time, android phones were clunky and their app ecosystem was inferior, but things have gotten to the point where that's not the case. If you want to have more control over your phone, why not just get one of them? And I'm saying this as an iphone user.

I was going to post this exact comment. I do the same thing with my nexus 4 - tablet data only plan and use Fongo for voice for the rare phone call I make or receive.
Dropping unlimited minutes or texts is another option, and might be more useful for most smartphone users now that VOIP is relatively ubiquitous. E.g., the T-mobile $30/mo plan with 100 minutes and 5GB of LTE data (unlimited 2g after that), is one of the cheapest options out there (or Ting if you have really low…
That's terrible advice to give across the board. Many people, sure, have to pay for it. But if you can avoid doing so, you owe it to yourself and your wallet to see if you can save the money. Why would you advise everyone to never explore the option?
I went the opposite route. Signed up on a "tablet plan" data only for $35/month for 5GB (Canadian wireless plans suck). I added on a voip plan($10/mnth, unlimited) and textplus to help with the transition, as I train my friends and family not to use SMS to contact me. Eventually I will be data only, using google…
Deer god, you're right. Why, this is wonderful news!
That's fine if Apple didn't include anything like that, but why even release a feature that is potentially so useful and then cripple it so badly?
Which is great if all you want are apps! If you want your settings, photos, call log, SMS history, saved games, etc, you needs to do a little more than that. :)
