Default Best Current Verizon Smartphone

The Wifes current dumbphone is about to die. Her contract is up Dec17th, and I called verizon about early upgrade. They said sure no problem, any phone except the Iphone. That's the one she wanted, but she is open to any of the other phones. I've been out of the loop on the androids, but which is the best Verizon smartphone?

I thought she would like the Iphone the best, but if the androids are better we might take a look.

Thanks.

if I were getting anything currently that verizon has to offer it would be the new RAZR.

If you think she'd like an iPhone you're probably right. I agree with Ricky^ though, stay away from motorola at all costs.

Make sure you get a phone that has Gorilla Glass. If not, one drop and the phone is done for. Here is a link to phones with gorilla glass. Just cross reference any phone you are interested with with this list.
