So I was one of those who, after several generations of Windows Phone (Focus, 920), jumped to the iPhone 6 due to the lack of a flagship release last year.
Thing is, I kinda hate iOS. Sure, it has a vibrant app ecosystem, but I hate the underlying OS. The back button is awkward, the keyboard is worse than Windows', the pull-up menu is infuriating, and there are tons of tiny things throughout the OS that I find non-optimal. In terms of hardware, I also feel that the camera is worse than my 920. It's alright in well-lit conditions, although the clarity is sometimes lacking. But its low-light abilities are far worse. At the end of the day, I'm going to drop this on ebay and go back to the 950, despite the ecosystem weaknesses and immature software.
So I have two questions for you guys. First, what are the solid apps these days? I know of the obvious Rudy apps, Baconit, etc, and I was hoping for some lesser-known-but-solid recommendations. What's the favorite news app these days? Or photo editing apps? (I have Polarr on my desktop, and jeez, I want a mobile version so badly!)
Second: White or Cognac? I feel that White might mesh better with the phone's aesthetics, given the silver/black trimmings, but the Cognac color is beautiful on its own. I'm so torn. :/
