I can honestly say the Lumia 920.
However, as a phone first and a phone built for a "phone". Blackberry is the best.

You must be joking. Storm I was the biggest piece of garbage BB ever made. Ever. I've always been a BB fan, but no fan can ever defend that phone.
I'm saying that every comment I've ever read about that device has been negative. In this case, you were the exception, not the rule. So I'd say you were lucky.Are you saying that I couldn't have had a Storm that worked well, and was reliable?
My Palm Pre. The OS was the best, and the shape and size were perfect. Like every review at the time said, it just felt great in your hand with its curved shape. The notifications were great, and somehow being able to just slide it open to answer a call was faster and easier. More graceful somehow. That falls under "tiny conveniences that make life better" for sure. So did being able to look into the top of my purse in a meeting, and confirm from the slider at the top that it was muted. There's a lot to be said for hardware over software for things like that.
I've had three phones since, and it still sits on its charger on my desk at home, telling me the time and checking my e-mail over WiFi.
Yes - I sit in front of a powerful desktop computer, and use the buzz of my Pre to tell me when I have new mail. And its notification system was so great, that a quick glance over at it continues to be the best way to know if I want to interrupt what I'm doing to read said e-mail.
My 8x is my first Windows phone, and it comes CLOSE to working with me as well as the Pre did, but it's not there yet.
