It's kind of surprising that while iPhone got the most points, only two of 44 comments are mentioning it. It almost contradicts the common conception that people have that iPhone owners have a need to express themselves and talk about their phones. But maybe HN is just different.

#52Jolla (Sailfish).
I love being able to compile and use just about any software I could possibly need.

#54Nexus 5.. crapware free.. except for Google's crapware (Drive, Hangouts)
Drive is fantastic, probably my most productive app
I consider my phone entertainment; I mostly use it for reading HN and watching Netflix while in bed. It's great that it's free, it's not great that I can't remove it (I can 'disable' it, I think, but can't get rid of it)

Or you can just flash another ROM and gapps-minimal.

#57Moto G I voted Other. I love the cheap Android phones with a no-contract plan!
It makes other phones seem like such a bad deal. You can get it online for under $60 new, and the warranty is great. I use one with no plan, just WiFi, and usually carry a hotspot. Data-only plans are so much cheaper than voice for whatever reason. You can even find free ones with monthly limits that give you more than enough for voice/text.
I've often been in the no phone camp, just checking messages on my computer when I'm around it, so if you're inclined toward that style, I definitely recommend a cheap Android phone with no plan.

#60Galaxy S3 with SlimKat 7.8 (Android 4.4.4) and gapps-minimal. Fixed the DPI to the hardware default (320). More stable than CM11.
