So, Which Phone Do Users Recommend Over the iPhone?

PCMag has posted a rather interesting chart comparing various smartphones based on user responses, and if you thought the iPhone would be the clear winner, you’d be wrong.

It turns out that the smartphone users who took part in the survey think that the best smartphone on the market is the Samsung Focus, which of course is considered to be the premiere Windows Phone 7 handset.

The Samsung Focus beat out Apple’s iPhone in the following areas:

  • reliability
  • reception
  • call quality
  • text messaging
  • email
  • web browsing
  • gaming

Not only that, but the Samsung Focus is mostly likely to be recommended by its users over the iPhone.

It can only get better from here.
