If you are in the market for a high-end smartphone today, which phone would you choose? Android smartphone, Windows 8 phone or iOS devices? Every platform and manufacturer has its partisans, but the three front-runners are clearly the Google Nexus 4 , Nokia Lumia 920 , the soon-to-be released Samsung Galaxy 4 and (at the moment) the iPhone 5 .
