Buying a new smartphone is not an easy task. Given how many brands and models are out there, finding the one that fits your wants and needs can take a long time. If you’re a faithful member of the Android Army, however, narrowing down your choices just got a whole lot easier.

Google has released a phone matchmaking tool that ask you a series of questions and prunes its database of phones accordingly. If you answer truthfully, you should end up with the device that deserves to be in your hand.

The quiz is pretty basic: What do you use your phone for? How much time do you spend on it each day? Answering those two questions a total of three times produces a bunch of potential matches for you to consider.
