Get one that dials numbers for you, answers calls, takes pictures for you that are not blurry , charges itself and gets you to places on time . If someone else can recommend a phone like this buy two and send me one.

I'm very happy with the Google/Android phone platform.  Real estate apps work fine on them.

It all depends on your ecosystem at the home/office.  If you use mostly apple products, I'd get an iPhone.  If you use Gmail and windows machines, I'd recommend a Google phone.

I've had four Android phones (from Samsung, HTC, Motorola,...), currently on the Nexus 6p.  Couldn't be happier.  All reliable phones.  Android phones tend to be a little cheaper to purchase than apple phones and they tend to allow you to expand, apple does not.

I switched to a Samsung G3 years ago & it was easy to get used to. I guess at first you wonder what you are going to do with it until you decide how it can help your business.

Lots of real estate apps that will help you find homes quickly. My MLS has an app, RM has an app that you hold up to a house front & it will show you the MLS info. Pretty cool stuff out there.

Jump in Curtis!

I love my Samsung S-5.  Just had to replace my phone (due to an accident) and got the exact same model.  The sales guy said the S5 is better than the S6 because of battery consumption and other glitches.   My daughter just switched from iPhone to Samsung because the iPhone was smaller and it didn't take good pictures.   Realize, if you get some too big, though, it may not fit conveniently in your pocket.

Can't go wrong with the iPhone. Especially if all your other tech equipment is Apple based. We love the seamless integration and the fact that everything just plain works. We've had a couple issues crop up here and there over the years and Apple took care of everything, no charge!

Curtis,

Trust your judgment.  Go to each store and ask lots of questions and test it each product out.  We have everything Apple and love it.  Not everyone does, and one of our best friends had a Samsung Galaxy and the battery kept giving out.  They advised him to hit a certain, and it would start working again, or send it to the factory...he needed his phone.  He went back to Apple!  A
