What was the best phone you have ever owned?

[SilverBullet]

In short LG

phone1 = motorola razor lasted less than 3 months and died.

phone2 = LG chocolate touch that lasted between 5 and 6 years and the battery started to go bad
(the phone still works but I decided time to upgrade)

phone3 = samsung s4 mini still got it um I think 3 years, had and has problems with charging since year 1 I temporarily fixed it then it started going again a year later and nothing I can do. I remedy this now by a wall charger and three different batteries.

so I would say my LG phone was the best, Motorola worst, Samsung is middle but with only ever owning 3 phones and 2 of those being held for almost 9 years I have neither the sample size or variety to really say much.
I will say I will never own a phone that does not have a removable battery, that seems to be the failure point for most.

I have a upgrade available through Verizon, I will use it when either LG stops the modular phones or Samsung gets a removable battery back.
