    My first Android phone was a Samsung Galaxy S, and the main reason I picked it back then was that some apps, mainly Anki, were free on Android but you had to pay for them on iOS (even when both are from the same open-source project), and I thought it would be cool to be able to go through my flashcards during my commutes. Oh and you could remove the back cover and easily replace the battery on that one.

      Mine was the HTC Dream. Had some issues with the radio, so it would just lose signal (without telling you) for hours.

      I didn’t know anything about Android, but I heard you could flash a new radio. I followed some random guide, bricked the phone, and gave up on Android until the Nexus 4.

      Yeah that was my first too. I remember that I found the S2 ridiculously large when it came out. Also I was super jelous for the build quality of the iPhone 4 which was released at the same time. Glad that these times are over.
