I've had great luck so far with the Moto X and G line (Via Republic Wireless). Not too expensive and fits my use cases pretty well. On the development side, my preferences are actually pretty flipped: I'm pretty comfortable with both at this point, but I'd much rather work with iOS/Cocoa touch than Android. I don't know if I'd go so far as to say the iOS dev process is "better", I guess I just feel that its a bit more thought out and predictable.
