Android. I picked up a Galaxy S4 this weekend and love it. Really the only real advantage iOS has is that they tend to have more internal storage and that you can always download app updates instantly when they drop while Android has no real way to "force update"...but of course Android doesn't require Apple's approval for every single update like iOS meaning every update ends up on Android first.

I don't get why on Earth Obama still uses a BlackBerry. Especially since the only reason BlackBerry is still in business is all their intellectual property holdings and the surprising popularity of BlackBerrys in a couple African countries, kind of like how Friendster became the main social network of SE Asia after everyone in North America abandoned and MySpace is inexplicably still fairly popular and almost as used as Facebook in the Netherlands.

iPhone 6 Plus. I'm not a member of the Cult of Apple, by any means (I shudder at the thought of using Mac OS because I'm so used to Windows), but I don't get all the iOS hatred. I've had four iPhones and take sh[inks] every time I get one from some because I can't install non-approved apps or some other fanboy BS.

Is it OK that I just have and stick with a phone that I like and works for me?

Not at all. But going in the other direction toward iOS if you're used to another phone can be pretty difficult. iOS 8 fixed a lot of my biggest complaints about it though, especially that iCloud's photo backup system used to be terrible.
