My iPhone 5 was stolen two days ago and I have been forced to scramble to replace it. Picked up an HTC 8S and so far, while remaining keenly aware that it is not an iPhone, I'm really impressed with it.
The operating system is really polished and intuitive, it embraces being its own thing as opposed to Android which feels like an imitation IOS (settle down fanboys, to the average person, this is true).
It has its flaws, but it's a phone that keeps me in contact with the info I want, but just enough so that I'm not constantly on my phone when I don't need to be.
And it looks cooler than anything I've ever had; I can't undervalue how nice it feels to not have the same phone as 90 other people on the train.
