Which search engine do you use on your Windows Phone? Bing or Google?

I've completely switched over to MS, so Bing for me.. Well, almost completely... The only thing I use my Google account for now is my Youtube channel.
 
On my phone I have the default search set up as Google, but I try to use the Bing search button whenever I can. Sometimes I'm forced to use Google because I can't seem to do advanced searches with Bing--like I can't limit the time period I'd like to search. Also the Bing client in Windows Phone doesn't understand things like "time in Melbourne" whereas if I were to type that on Bing in a desktop browser, it'd give me the actual time in Melbourne. Also, for really complicated searches, I just use Google.

On my computer, all my defaults are set to Bing. If I need Google, I'll type it in manually. I find it strange that Bing will only let me choose a time period of up to one month, while Google will let me choose a time period of up to one year, or a custom period. In addition, Bing does not seem to recognize the Philippine Peso (PHP) as a currency, while Google does just fine, so I use Google for currency conversions.

I really want to use Bing as much as possible, but there are some limitations that Bing has that Google does not. It's annoying sometimes.
 
Bing on my phone. It's easier. Google on my desktop.

This. I wanted to be able to use Google, but it just doesn't work with WP. It's so much easier to just use what they want you to use so that you can tie yourself into the ecosystem properly.
 
I use Bing about 95%, I only use google if I can't find something. I do find that Bing is better than Google
 
lol sorry guys when it comes to Search Engines Google has been dominating Microsoft for years. Love my WP8 more than Android tho, and I have enough patience for the apps to catch up.

I'm having problem with bing search on phone when i search something and swipe to the media tab and open an image, it wait for 5 sec then comes back to media page and when i click the image again, it opens. I'm not sure if it's regional, can any one check this and report?
 
Bing, also on PC because I found out its actually pretty good (just not the youtube/video page which needs some refreshing on desktop)

Anyone?
 


Images open up on initial click for me. However, I do have the updated Bing, so now, instead of media, I have: Web, images and videos and not the media section. Don't know if that makes a difference or not.
