Ya know, if I seem biased towards APPLE - I probably am - I dislike patent troll companies who claim to innovate and yet year after year the end result do not back up the claim. A Closed OS is destined to die, but APPLE, no matter how much shrinkage it experiences, will always have a niche in the marketplace.
Some folks can live with a Closed OS and overpay for the phone, apps, and other accessories - I cannot and will not succumb to conformity.

what some of us are saying that with Apple's business history and iOS aside Apple does REALLY well on the Hardware front, sure they could stand to mix it up a little but they don't really have to, they have a winning formula. the iPhone 5 is genuinely a nice phone.

I just want to say that the black HTC ONE S had "scuffgate" issues so it's no better than the iPhone 5...

What is an Android phone doing on this chart? I thought this was a design competition.

What about Sony's arc design in Xperia T, Xperia j and their magazine fold design in Xperia tablet S.

I would say the LG Optimus G is one of the best design phones of 2012!
