iPhone, since its the only one not running the shitty Android OS.

I would (and am) personally wait and see how the new Windows Phones shake up things. That would more than likely be enough for Apple to announce the iPhone 5 or whatever.

Depending on your own personal preference operating system-wise, I would suggest either the Samsung Galaxy S3 or iPhone. The Galaxy Note is, in my opinion, too large to be ideally suited for use as a mobile phone, and the large screen would probably drain the battery somewhat faster than were it smaller. My reason for not selecting the Sony over the Samsung is partially due to my preference of the former on aesthetic terms, and also due to the fact that the Sony appears to use an old version of Android. Both, however, are good, well-built handsets, from what I've heard and read.

As for your second question regarding whether it is worthwhile waiting for the iPhone 5 (or whatever Apple wish to name it) I would say definitely. Not only does it allow you to take into account the potential improvements on a design that is already one of the market leaders, but Apple have a tendency to reduce the price of their previous year's model on the release of the later one, meaning that even if you do not favour the latter over the former, you can still often find a cheaper deal on the former following release of the next model.

Personally I'd get the iPhone because in my opinion no one quite does touchscreen like Apple.
If I couldn't have that then the Samsung galaxy S would be my next choice.

Oh wait...

It isn't on his list, but Nokia is coming out with a couple of Windows Phone 8 devices soon enough, and they are probably blow out everything on that list out of the water in terms of usability and reliability, similarly to how the Lumia 900 went on to win several awards and become THE Windows Phone.

Besides, Nokia phones are near indestructible, up there with Nintendo consoles and Cockroaches. After a nuclear apocalypse, cockroaches will take over earth, using Nokia phones to communicate and Nintendo consoles for entertainment.

Well I would say the galaxy s3 is by far the best. Iphones are extremely overrated, not only does the samsung have better hardware but it also has the best android os to date. although the iphone has an equally good os it isn't as customizable as the android. Also the android has a front facing hd camera for video calls ect. With skype.

As for waiting for the iphone5 I would say it isn't worth it. If it is like apples last iphone "improvement" then hardly any features will be added, maybe one big feature and nothing more.

Get the iPhone or Galaxy S3 although a lot of Sansung devices might not be around much longer from the lawsuit outcome so keep that in mind lol.

Just go with the Iphone. Feed apple your money, or suffer the consequences.

Out of the choices you've given, I'd choose the S III. But if it were up to me...

It depends on you use your phone for. If you're going to customise it a lot, go with an Android since you can change nearly everything about it. If you want a simple phone, go with Windows or Apple, they have everything out of the box and won't be confusing to use.

For Android, I'd suggest the Galaxy S III, it has some of the best hardware out there and it pulls off a huge screen really well. Might I also recommend the Galaxy Nexus. Why? It has pretty good hardware and it runs vanilla Android, which in my opinion, looks better than any manufacturer skin and Nexus devices always get updates from Google.

If you want a more simple phone, I'd choose Windows over Apple. To me, Windows are simple and look pretty good. And Apple products may be simple but they're horrible over priced. With Windows, you get a simple, good looking OS without paying an arm and a leg. So I'd recommend waiting for Windows Phone 8 if you want a simple phone.
