The only reason I want a Sensation is because of the development available for it.

I want a One X because I like it's design more than the design of the HTC One.

I'm also a fan of Sony (I have a PS2, PS3, and a PSP, and am in the progress of getting a Vaio) but I've never really seen a Sony smartphone since the first Experia Play. The only reason I prefer HTC is because I've been using HTC since my first smartphone, then when I got a Samsung, it fell apart within two months, and the LG I'm using now is doing the same. I like HTC because my HTC phones have never really let me down.
[Off-topic] :
I have to say, Sony phones have the highest build quality. The Z1 is fantastic, and my Z isn't far behind. My Xperia T was really good too.

New mid-range > old high-end...

You're in luck, HTC is trying to give some more attention to mid-range market this year.

Their first phones this year:

Desire 816. KitKat with sense, 5.5" 720p, snapdragon 400, 1.5GB ram, 13MP rear 5MP front cams, LTE capability, 8GB storage expandable up to 128GB more, 2600MaH

http://www.engadget.com/2014/02/24/htc-desire-816/

And Desire 810, basically the same but smaller with 4.7" qHD screen, only 8MP rear 1.3 front cams, "only" up to 64GB SD, 2048MaH.

http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/htc-desire-610-launched-as-new-mid-range-4g-option

Both feature same software as their flagship device, and I guess they'll be updated unlike the Sensation. They look pretty decent for mid-range IMO :p

Or take a look at the Moto X or N5 for real good specs for the price. Specially N5 <3 I bought it as a temporary replacement for HTC One, but I'm keeping it!!! Screw you HTC One

[Off-topic] VictoriousShooter:
I know there are a lot of mid-range phones out today, but specs and speed don't win me over. Development does.

The LG I'm using now is faster than a Nexus 7, but I hate it because no body develops for it anymore (its eol and can't run any android past 4.1.2). But I love my NS4G (as much as it pains me to love a Samsung) because of the ROM choices.

If I were to get a non-htc device, would be a Moto X, Moto G, Nexus 5 (then I could be welcomed amongst your ranks), or a GooPhone N3 (this is the only exception to what I said. Has no development, but... 8 cores ftw).

If I wanted a mid-range phone without development I would of gotten a ZTE months ago.

But thanks for listing those phones (I didn't know there were so many). I'll look them up.
[Off-topic] :
I imagine the N5 has plenty of development.

Sony devices usually do too, as Sony allows for people to do as they please with their phones.

Hell, my XZ got stable 4.4 port before the N4 did. Pretty impressive.

[Off-topic] :
That's not a decision anybody else can make.

To me, I'd struggle with the fact that I'm restricted, that my iPhone is pretty much IDENTICAL to any other (I'd also be gutted about having to reinvest in a different app store).

I'd like to have one for a little while though. Testing the waters, if you understand what I mean.

Right now, I'd want a Z2, but if HTC made a phone that wasn't fugly, I'd be interested. Providing they have decent dev support. They can be patchy about that at times, but they're way better than the likes of Samsung.
[Off-topic] VictoriousShooter:
Um, I wouldn't be so sure of your last statement. Samsung updated their S2 to jellybean while HTC kept their 2011 devices at ice cream sandwich.
[Off-topic] :
Dev support isn't the same as updating legacy phones.

Sony provides source code for their phones/kernel upon release (sometimes before release), and have a bootloader unlock tool. They also release AOSP source code on github for some phones for anybody to use. They provide tutorials on how to do things, etc. Does any other manufacturer do that? Not to my knowledge.

I'm not saying that ALL of that is needed - but I expect bootloader unlocking help and kernel source to be promptly released. HTC usually drags their feet, and Samsung sometimes goes out of their way to prevent tinkering.

Not saying Sony's the best at everything, they are usually slightly slower in terms of updates to newer android versions (although they do release minor improvements/fixes roughly every month or two).
[Off-topic] ABD EL HAMEED:

Google Play Edition

TD101 802w

TD101 802d

TD101 802t

HTL22 'J One version'

C6602 - Worldwide

C6603 (Mine, woop, woop) -Worldwide, LTE

C6606 - T-Mobile USA

C6616 - Bell Canada

SO-02E - NTT DoCoMo

EDIT: For general knowledge, Sony usually has 'test versions' of devices called 'brown devices'- running slightly different firmware for testing, this is so that if that firmware is leaked, it won't work on consumer 'red devices' (75% sure it's red). The 'brown devices' never go on sale though, and therefore don't count.

I rest my case. HTC is THE WORST for releasing the same phone 16 times.

[Off-topic] jamice4u:
Samsung phone are more durable because they are made of plastic and thus have less mass so you will have a hard time cracking your screen because your phone is lighter. I have dropped my Note 3 over a dozen times with no damage to my screen. How cares if the corners of your phone looks perfect but your screen cracked. All samsung phone have a removable battery and benchmark better than the competition. Samsung's camera is general among the best for Android devices. Plus they are friendlier toward the development community.
[Off-topic] Alucai Vivorvel:
My first two phones were Samsung. It's true that the screen never cracked when I dropped them. Rather, on both (the Galaxy Gio and Galaxy Ace II x) the back cover shot off in one direction and the battery in another. Had no choice but to get a case so that would stop happening. The cases also added some much needed grip, smooth plastic backs are not very good for holding.

Removable battery is a bonus, not a necessity, and benchmarks mean diddly squat. They're solely for bragging rights. Most high end or midrange phones nowadays are smooth in everyday tasks, and software optimizations are what really make the experience shine. Benchmarks are only useful for buying PC components really, and most of the time it has to do with gaming. What Android game is going to tax your system so much that only the highest benchmarks will do?

The first point, I don't know, I've never had any of the high end devices with great cameras. Or that at least claim to have them.

The second point? Friendlier than whom? While they never locked and encrypted the bootloader like LG did with my phone, they certainly never went out of their way to make it easier for users to root and develop for their devices. At least, not in my experience. Implementing a flash counter is just one such example, which you can reset, but it's potentially dangerous to do so.
[Off-topic] darkshadow246:
That's true but a case can make most phones like that

That is one advantage

Benchmarks isn't a very efficient way to calculate performance

Samsung activates all it's cores once it detects a benchmark app, hence the high scores

Sony beats Samsung in both those things and knox for Samsung sucks

The reason the screen doesn't break as easy compared to the HTC one is because of the aluminum body makes the shock of the drop spread to the screen. The plastic of the s4 or note 3 when dropped dampens the shock on the screen.

Exactly. The plastic is more flexible than the aluminium of the One/the aluminium and glass of Z1/24/Z1 Compact.

But when a phone feels flimsy - like it's going to fall apart at little notice, that's when it's bad. That's when it's Samsung.

What matters is the software, build quality, design and OEM kindness (dev support, etc.)

Samsung do nothing right.

And don't just assume that all other products are inferior because yours hasn't broken.

I know many Samsung devices that are broken, or worn down very easily.

Samsung laptop? Bricked itself for no reason.

My sister's old Galaxy Ace? All the paint stripped off, shattered screen, though the screen was from a drop.

Cousin's Samsung TV? DVD player stopped working.

Has this happened to a Sony product of mine? Yes. I left a flap open on my XZ and it got water damaged. That, however is my own fault.
