Android Which SharedPreferences to Use

PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(applicationContext)

There are basically 3 ways to get SharedPreferences.

If I need a global SharedPreferences per application, I prefer PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(applicationContext) as it is used by PreferenceFragment as well (avoid having to maintain 2 SharedPreferences, or reconfigure PreferenceFragment)
