Phone OS reliability

Ok so I am trying to find out which mobile phone os (smart phones only) is the most reliable without a bunch of trolls, spammers, fanboys, ect.

My past there phones, in order

Bb Curve 8310 2 years

iPhone 3GS 2 years

LG Nitro HD 1.5 years

Out of the three phones the Blackberry and the iPhone were incredibly stable, I think I reset my iphone 2-3 times over 2 years. The Nitro hd has been a different story, its slow and buggy, I have used many different roms in attempt to find a stable one with no luck. It is finally bricked with the latest rom I have put on it.

I just purchased a Lumia 920 to replace my Nitro and to try Windows phone.

I guess out of the 4 major OS's where do the rank on reliability and where would windows phone be? I may have received bad units, but my experience is iOS>BB OS> Andriod, is this typically the consensus? Bear in mind I don't really carry about customization or tweaking, I just want a phone that is reliable.

Well, Blackberry is pretty stable, but after a few months mine starting to want a reset every now and then, and everybody who owns one knows that resetting takes at least 10 mins. It is very stable because theres pretty much nothing to customise etc, dont recommend it unless your a businessman etc

My Android (SGA2) needs resetting at least every 2 days, but that is because my SD card was dieing, thats all, when I had everything stock, hardly any lockups, maybe 1 every month or something. But the reason it was dieing was how flexible Android was, with a few tweaks I could even dual boot Ubuntu etc. Highly Recommend it to anyone!

Havnt tried Windows phone so no comment

As for iOS, havnt personally owned one, but have a few things to say... iOS is actually quite simple, stable as you hardly need any battery pulls, but the odd lockup will happen, but what I dont like about iOS is the layout etc, no startup page(ie no covered with icons) and your pretty locked in unlike Android

These are my thoughts, please lets not bargue
