Although it may seem a bit odd that Apple's own service would recommend another phone, it actually makes sense. Siri looked for the answer on Wolfram Alpha, which points to the Lumia 900 when users type in "what's the best smartphone ever?" The high rating is delivered based on "customer review average" across the Web.

The Lumia 900 is certainly no slouch. CNET's review of the device gave it four stars out of five and deemed it "excellent." CNET reviewer Jessica Dolcourt called the Lumia 900 her "favorite Windows Phone yet."

Evidently, it may be Siri's too.

Hahahaha, oh Siri you dog you.... wink.gif

Seriously though, I love my Lumia 900. It's better in every way than my old iPhone 4

I really want a Windows phone with faster hardware and a 720p screen. Even with what it has, I hear it is supposed to be amazing.

^ Most don't hate. I for one, like WP7 and do agree that it is a pretty damn good platform. I'm just tied to Android and feel no need to hop platforms, sacrificing all the Google integration Android offers with GMail. WP7's app market is also still just not there. It's a step up from the crap it has always been, but it is still somewhat weak.

You can copy and paste files on to it after a regedit. Though that doesn't count as an out of box function.
