and i am surprised to see moto x on second spot. I know S4 sold lot more phones than X but it looks like the Android community is embracing the moto X.

KitKat and price drop did help the Moto X

I am surprised myself.

The HTC One fans must simply be loud.

Poll the general population rather than nerds on tech blogs

My guess for top 10 as daily driver is: iPhone 4s > iPhone 5 > Galaxy S4 > Galaxy S3 > iPhone 5s > iphone 5c > HTC One > Moto X > Nexus 4 > Droid Maxx

Maybe Motorola is set to give Samsung a run for its money?

Understatement of the year.

What I've noticed lately is that people of several different OEM followings have devices that are increasingly worth of their adoration... if that's a real concept. HTC One fans bought it, love it and they got a great device. Same with the Moto X, the G2, Note 3, etc. Every device has something that someone will complain about, but for the most part it's been a great year for consumers.

+1. I still have seen very few Moto X's in the wild. Lots of iPhone, Galaxy S3, S4 and surprising Note 2 and 3's. Seeing more and more Windows phones. I think the WP will have a good 2014 as they can now support 1080p screens and 1 GB RAM.

Both AC and ArsTechnica named it the best phone of '13.

 

[DefectiveWeeble]

Honestly, the moto x should just be 15%. Because honestly, the people that bought the Maxx/Ultra/Mini really just bought a variant of the moto x lol

I disagree. We all know that the iPhone, the S3, and the S4 would sit atop that poll. Polling tech blogs gives you a different sort of number. The audience of a tech blog is going to be a barometer of where things may be heading, not where they are currently. What this poll shows is that HTC is likely in for even tougher times ahead. Despite releasing an excellent phone (which I had purchased), more "techy" have gone for the Moto X, despite its being released later. These people are, in turn, likely to recommend it to others. I see Motorola having a very good 2014 and HTC releasing another excellent device that won't sell the number of units it should.

My guess for top 10 as daily driver is: iPhone 4s > iPhone 5 > Galaxy S4 > Galaxy S3 > iPhone 5s > iphone 5c > HTC One > Moto X > Nexus 4 > Droid Maxx

I'm willing to bet the iPhone 5 has passed the 4s. The 4s has been out two years, so a portion of its audience will have migrated to the 5s and/or 5c. Meanwhile, the 5 has only been out a year so has likely seen much, much less migration this year.

Actually, Im not surprised to see the Moto X in 2nd spot.

Anyone that calls TouchWiz or Sense (or LG's or Sony's "skins") bloat must have a "stock" Android phone, else they're just whining for the sake of whining.

The Nexus 4 and 5 along with the Moto X, DROID MINI, DROID ULTRA, DROID MAXX (heck even the previous DROID RAZR HD, DROID RAZR MAXX HD, and DROID RAZR M are near "stock", plus the ICS and JB builds for the DROID Bionic, DROID RAZR, DROID RAZR MAXX, and DROID 4) give a "stock" experience. These are the phones that those people should have.

Factoring in people that have not yet upgraded because they're still in contract, I'd throw phones like the original DROID RAZR/DROID RAZR MAXX in the top ten even if limited to one carrier in the world - probably ahead of the HTC One and Moto X.

There are like 5 around 2,000 now. No way there are more people with a Galaxy Nexus then there are with an S4 yet it has 30 more votes in the poll. Very inaccurate representation of the total population

 

[return_0]

This seems very off; not even representative of the tech geek population; for example, the GNex has more than double the N4's number and also more than the GS4.

Also, as a side note, I'm not sure if this is just me noticing it more or something, but I've seen more N4s in the wild than any other Android phone but the GS3 and GS4. Yes, even more than the One and Note 2.

Get a Moto X. You'll stop noticing everyone's phones.

XT1060. Through spacetime.

Heh, I think I'll hold off until the Moto X2 or Nexus 6 (or whatever they may be called); my N4 still has tons of life in it

this is crazy. Moto X is at the top now... good to see Android geeks going with Moto X
