What phone do you have?

I'm a mobile developer, so I'm always curious to see what other people use :P

I just got a Samsung Galaxy S3 (Android), but I've had an iPhone before.


EDIT: Ooops, just found the same thread in the Computers forum. Sorry!

I've got an older windows phone, think its about 5 years old now, maybe 6?. Way way overdue for a new one, but holding on as long as I can. I'll have to upgrade my plan substantially I think to get a new smartphone, as I dont even have data on mine. But I get data wherever I can get free wifi so right now free is good enough for me.

Some 'features' I am used to will be gone with a new phone though. One I am not sure about so maybe y'all with modern stuff can fill me in. I'm looking at getting an android phone. Currently I use a bluetooth headset when I work out and jog and it has controlls built into it to control windows media player (volume, play, pause, next track, rewind, etc). Would this headset be compatable with an android phone and whatever media player they use?

I know you can get similar headphones for android, but it'd probably be best to try them out on a friend's phone first.

It should be compatible. Though I never tried using bluetooth headset controls with a media player, if your current phone supports that feature, I don't see why a newer phone wouldn't.

PS...hmm I completely forgot to include blackberries as a vote option. I'm terrible at this.

Well thats part of the question, the headset controls windows media player and an android phone is not going to have WMP. So just trying to figure out if the bluetooth commands the headset sends are generic for most media players or specific to WMP only. And I'm sorry, I didnt want to turn that into a big issue its just a minor thing.

I have an Android. I like Android though the phone I'm using it on isn't particularly fantastic.

Have Android, though off and on I think of getting an Apple. Just havent done it. But beginning to get annoyed at a few things that I would love to be using, that only have apps for Apple, and not androids yet.

You'll have to post a video on YouTube or something when you find out :)

I've always had an iPhone ever since they came out, though I only have an iPhone 4 and not a 4S. I'll probably wait for the iPhone 5 before I get a new one.
