Is there any Hubski consensus on phones? I've been using iPhones for all but two weeks where I had a Samsung Galaxy Nexus that I loathed. I went back to iPhone. I'm currently using my four year old iPhone 5. The battery is waning but manageable. But every time Apple changes something, I can't help but feel it made my experience worse. Is it any better on Android? I know lots of people like Android, but I can't help but feel they're just managing like I am on iOS.

My current, primary complaint is my phone seems to forget my music playlist. Like, as the phone runs low on memory, it dumps the playlist to free up space. Then I go to music and hit play, and something different pops up. I like listening to full albums. I like resuming where I was.

Are there any good options out there for someone who wants basic functions to be flawless before adding advanced functions?

I've had to correct at least a half dozen bad autocorrects while typing this. "Be" became "Ben." "Can't" became "can tell." These things don't feel like getting old and resisting change. They feel like genuine flaws. Am I off base?
