Smartphones

Personal tracking devices.

Android

A Java VM (Dalvkit) running on top of the Linux kernel, comes with Google if you don't set it free. Needs some debloating but still the best bang for buck. See Android Ricing for unlocking and tweaking. Nexus is the popular flagship line that comes with OTA updates as soon as they are released.

iPhone

Jailbreak the Unix-based iOS with http://evasi0n.com/ Avoid at all costs.

Jolla

The phone running Sailfish OS, a full open source operating system based on Meego developed by fired Finns after Microsoft jewed Nokia to death. Meego in turn was based on Maemo, the Debian-based N900 OS.

Firefox

Fully open source lightweight OS for hardware developed by Geeksphone, made for poorfags.

Windows 8

Mostly Lumia by Nokia.

Tizen

Soon to come Meego fork by Intel on Samsung phones.

Ubuntu Touch

Failed Canonical project, basically CyanogenMod with a Unity skin on top. The crowdfunding for a Ubuntu device failed as well.

Tablets

Nvidia

Tegra Note is basically a highly powerful tablet. Everything else about it is poorfaggotry however.

Google

Nexus 7 has stock KitKat android, a great screen and is sleek and fast. Also comes with goodies like OTA updates. Beware if you care about software freedom because the Nexus 7 is tied to Google (obviously.)
