So what smartphones are you guys running nowadays?
Like everyone else, I picked up a Galaxy S3. Great phone.

Currently running a, now ancient, Galaxy S...just an S. Wife has an HTC Arrive (Windows Phone 7.5 w/ slide-out QWERTY).
The Man (Microsoft) is giving all employees a new Windows Phone 8 this Fall/Winter so the Arrive will be departing. Currently looking at the Nokia Lumia 920 as my WP8 replacement. The Samsung Ativ looks pretty nice too, but the screen and camera on the 920 will probably make Nokia the winner.
Don't know what I'll replace my Galaxy S with yet. The Galaxy S is with Sprint, which currently does not offer Windows Phone. As a former employee of Sprint I get a nearly unlimited smartphone plan for $50/months, so there's no chance I'll drop that line any time soon. I'll probably end up with a Galaxy S IV, which is already rumored to launch in March 2013 (right in time for my 2-year refresh).“Inside every sane person there’s a madman struggling to get outâ€

Not a lot on the S4 yet. Samsung let it slip to try and cut into iPhone sales. The lawsuits have Samsung on a PR offensive against Apple. So far the only reliable details are Feb/Mar 2013 release, 5" display, "faster processor", and 4G LTE.
Windows Phone 8 should be really nice. I haven't played with it yet, but with WP8 and Windows RT sharing the same kernel and dev tools the app support should roll in rather fast.

- Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman (for my Polish number, got it one year ago when I moved from prepaid to subscription): it was the cheapest Android phone for my subscription. And it has a front camera (great for skype).
- Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini pro (for my Belgian number): I bought it new and without simlock over 1.5 years ago, as replacement for my HTC TyTN whose battery failed.

That S3 vs i5 image is great (though a bit biased).

@Kooldino: Not as often as I would like to... And I know it would be cheaper to have just one, but there are some added benefits to having two numbers (difficult to explain).Comment

I have Motorola Droid X2 that I really like.
For some reason though, it seems to be the red-headed stepchild of Motorola/Google
No Ice Cream Sandwich for me

Don't lose all hope. Cyanogenmod is working on an ICS port for the Droid X2. The build is currently in beta.Originally posted by cjolley View PostI have Motorola Droid X2 that I really like.

I run Cyanogenmod 9 (ICS) on my Epic 4G. These guy make better builds than your carrier does, once they reach the stable channel at least.“Inside every sane person there’s a madman struggling to get outâ€
