With my scoring of the iPhone 4S -- my top smartphone -- I realize I now have over 100 smartphones ranked in my BEST SMARTPHONES matrix. Check it out.
While the smartphone market has grown by leaps and bounds these past 3 years, and though Android and iPhone now rule the smartphone kingdom, my methodology remains as it always was -- as it always should be. The focus is on:
- Ecosystem
- Usability
- Productivity
- Network
- Design
- Content
and a few other critical factors that are most relevant to...actual users.
If I have any issues with the scoring methodology, it's that I've been too easy on Android with respect to usability. Thing is still too damn hard to use. Literally. I'm not simply talking lags or lack of responsiveness. It like practically needs instructions. So 20th century.
Otherwise, the smartphone rankings will do you right. There's definitely a great device out there for you.
