still waiting for s4 details/leaks

htc one is looking good tho.
[One (M7) General] Dragonswithin:
Same here. I have been in need of an upgrade for a long time (HTC Mytouch4g) I have never owned anything this long without breaking it. Not for lack of trying it has been swimming in the ocean twice dropped 100s of times and slammed in the trunk latch of my car at the ER. HTC won me over with build quality but the battery in the One has me worried. I have had to replace my battery twice. Granted I got the cheap replacement and did not expect them to last over a year. I also happen to be a very heavy user. Games, gps, music, calls away from the charger 13-15 hours a day. I find it unlikely that one battery will last me. And how bad is it going to be to replace when it goes bad? Sure it may last 2 years but I'm on a budget it may be 3 years before I can upgrade again.

Once they complete a tear down of both the sgs4 and the One I will decide. Oh and I hate sense so the Development of the phones comes into play as well.
[One (M7) General] panflute:
Yes the Sony Z is already obsolete. Call me strange but I would like to have a black front with a silver back cover. I'm a ham operator and all my portable radios are black. Funny there doesn't seem to be an FM radio tuner on board. I heard Sammy took out patents on TV receivers so we can probably expect TV receivers onboard like now present in China at some time in the future. The HTC 20 releasing around 2035 should rival Spocks tricorder and everyone will be wondering if they should wait for the 20+ :) .

It may make more sense to buy the phone off contract so you can sell it and upgrade to the one+ whenever it is released. I am more interested in the build quality than the software. It would be a nice upgrade coming from my present Atrix 4g.

Here's my present home screen:

It will look great and function well on the ONE.

Really?

REALLY?

The HTC One has exactly the same number of pixels as the Sony XZ and (probably) the Samsung GS4, the difference is simply that the pixels are slightly smaller.

The question you have to ask is, how close to your eyes are you planning to hold the phone?

For a "pixel density" of 441ppi, someone with typical eyesight physically cannot see all of the detail on the screen unless the phone is less than 8 inches away from their eyes.

5" is already too small a screen to take proper advantage of a 1080p screen resolution, and you want to make it even smaller? Were you planning on using a magnifying glass to look at it, or to constantly hold it just 7 inches away from your face? :p
[One (M7) General] Basil3:
Decisions decisions.

After 6 HTC phones, I feel like they dropped the ball a little with the one x. Not being able to flash a ROM on the go was a ball ache, battery life was average at best, and I was stuck on ICS long after others had been upgraded to JB. Even my girlfriend for her JB update on her GS3 (same network provider as me) while I still waited.

Since then I have had a GS3 and a note 2, and it's going to take a lot to pull me back to HTC, especially after the battery life and performance of the note 2.

In going to wait to see the specs of the GS4. At this stage, the only thing that will bring me back to HTC is (imho) they have the better devs.

[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
All I have to say is prepared to be disappointed. I went through two One X devices and ended up getting the GS3 regardless. I was ready to ditch Samsung too but HTC is just bad. I thought the grass was greener on that side too but boy was I wrong.

Um how is that stupid? If Apple gets money you are indirectly supporting them. That is common sense.

Am i the only person in the world who has had a flawless 10 months with my One X?
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
You want me to list the issues? I guarantee that you have at least one. But if you think it is flawless you are better keeping it that way.

I have a One S and its been perfect... even survived a drop in the toilet...
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Go for it, if you want to list your issues.....like i said, i haven't had any issues with mine.
[One (M7) General] monkboy24:
Nope I'm with u on that bro! And now I have the One x+ and I'm in heaven with it:D
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
This is a HTC One thread, so listing issues related to HOX won't work here, anyways, good luck
[One (M7) General] monkboy24:
All I want is sense 5 to come too my One x+. Not to crazy about the the HTC one. However it is nice looking
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
Okay these are with the two HTC One X Rogers version that I have owned which is basically the One XL with the Qualcomm S4 and not the Tegra 3. Both handsets had these issues. I returned one and purchased the other one months later to avoid an occasional bad batch.

- The entire digitizer is not glued in properly and there is a lot of give with a light push. I even heard one of the corners click back into place.

- The micro USB port has some poor finishing marks on the side. One handset had scratches that I thought were lines added on purpose but the other one was clean and entirely piano gloss.

- it wouldn't recognize being plugged in all the time. Sometimes I would have to unplug and plug in to get it charging.

-I wasn't receiving all of my notifications and Rogers didn't update it until months later.

-the silver backplate on the back starts to slowly pop out away from the white unibody. If you look I am sure it isn't as flush as when you first had it

- the white begins to yellow way too fast

-if you look at the Piano gloss edges, you might notice a raised area from poor finishing.

- 1gb of ram is not enough ram for the Qualcomm S4. Phone starts closing apps way too soon

- both the volume rockers and power buttons are more flush than they were after minimal use

- The micro sim tray is not entirely flush with the body

-Noticed some yellow tint in the screen on the top and bottom

General useabilty issues. Power button is ridiculously hard to press with one hand. USB port on the side makes the phone unuseable when charging. I see they put the port on a poor spot again for the HTC One and a worse spot with the home button and power button. Lag like a son of an b.

I am sure you have at least one of those issues. I noticed them in all the display models and both of mine. My first 8x had a dead pixel and second one has a rattling volume rocker. Good times HTC. Good times!
[One (M7) General] imobileface:
i will defiantly buy one to test ... but i saw the camera quality is lower than iphone 5 ..any one test it ?
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Looks like you're waiting for SHAMESUNG Galaxy SIV.

For your information, HTC has better consumer satisfaction than SHAMESUNG. Just behind Apple

An 'in your face' for HOX problems:

[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
I have none of these issues with my One X, and i had no issues with my Desire before that which is why i am confident in purchasing the One.:cool:
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
That article said the Atrix had a higher satisfication rating than the iPhone too in the states, so there goes your article out the window.

---------- Post added at 11:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 AM ----------

You are not looking close enough. The micro sim tray not being a perfect fit is so there. All of my HTC devices have that including my current 8x.
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
We're here talking about HOX. With the issues you reported, it should have never been in that list, but it is! And rank 1 for the UK
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
Alright, feel free to ignore the glaring issues if you can live with them. Just don't say I didn't warn you.
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Sure sir, I'll remember you
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
Yes and that article had some bs statistics about the Atrix ranking high in the US, therefore the stats about the One X are BS too. Consumers that take these surveys obviously are not as picky as XDA people are.
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
LOL, just leave this here, your One X(s) rest in peace :)
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
So the Atrix is the best phone in the USA and the One X is the best in the UK eh? Lol :laugh: good one.
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Ask those survey people, I just gave you the proof from their website
[One (M7) General] combat goofwing:
I so want one ,but with 6 months left on my contract,I'm trying to figure out a way to

A.keep my one x

B. Not have to pay my contract off

C.try to keep hold of my unlimited data and £180 a month t mobile give me on my bill spend.

D.get the HTC one for free

Don't want much do I :cool:
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Well, i hate to admit it, but Mr Tomatoes is right, the One X is pure garbage, i have just taken my snap case off my X (which has been on since day 1), and i have noticed that part of the micro sim cover is raised by a couple of microns.:crying:

Thank you sir for enlightening me as to how rubbish my current device actually is.:highfive:
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Well that is highly appreciated, I hope for the best in case of One as I've already made my mind for that, so departing will be hard ;)
[One (M7) General] fp581:
OK lets begin with STOP THE STUPID FIGHTING over who has the biggest cpu or crap like that.

if you are 12 years old or acting like one, plz leave the thread and don't spam here no more.

if you are a fanboy of Samsung or sony or anything else and just want to annoy ppl here plz leave the thread.

but if you love gadgets and tec, want to talk like an adult and learn new info about the htc one or other phones you want to buy, plz stay here and have fun.

now lets get back to the subject :)

so, i want to buy the new htc one but i have a problem with the 4.1MP cam. i get that i don't really need more then that for facebook or tweeter (or the desist google +) but its really small, i don't understand y not just make the camera lens bigger and a bit bulkier like the lumia and get 8 super mega pixels instead of 4.1.

i love the fact that they are back with the metal phones (like the desire hd) and it looks amazing and the scores of the benchmarks are of the chart (it's over 9000!! :eek:) and you don't really need stronger cpu then that (it can run win 7 with that cpu or linux easily) so i dont car about the + ver.

i think i will wait to see what the other companies has to offer before i'll buy it (in reality i think i'll buy it the sec i'll have the money lol) but i'm 80% positive i'll get the htc one
[One (M7) General] Buckylastard:
So, they fooled you with the megapixel race too. If you look at the comparison images, the pics of the One doesn't look all that bad. They are not all "WOW", but they're not worse than the competition either.
[One (M7) General] sy7hf7tgtgrf:
Holy sh*t 64 gb of Ram? Motherboards for computers can only carry 32 gb of ram.
[One (M7) General] Goku80:
he had a typo:p
[One (M7) General] Tomatoes8:
Try mm instead of microns. It is a big difference if you are OCD like me. All I have to say is Apple and Samsung gap clearance is like a 100 times better so I guess build quality is in the eye of the beholder eh?;)

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 PM ----------

Well, it is worse because you can do less with a 4mp image compared to a 8mp image. Of course HTC fans will choose to ignore this. it is a game of inches and HTC seems to be missing an inch here and there from every handset compared to their competition. And they wonder why their profits are dropping fast......
[One (M7) General] fp581:
m8b on the camera but they amped the sound Q and its suppose to be close to audiophile lvl and that is impressive and the full metallic body is beautiful.

i am an htc fan but 4 mp is not much (even if they are really good) but its better then crappy 8 mp camera (like the iphone 5 with the sun purple problem)
[One (M7) General] Buckylastard:
Anandtech seems to be really impressed by the camera despite its low mp count. Not too sure why as I find the samples on the net to be good, but not great.
[One (M7) General] epsix:
I'm worry about HTC leaving us hanging again. Will we get Key Lime update in the future?
[One (M7) General] vicedens2002:
I currently have a HTC desire HD. I am looking to buy the one or xperia ZL. I got bored of sense but still the screen is better on one. But the size of the phone is very big compared to ZL see pic...

Confused between the two :banghead:
[One (M7) General] Maedhros:
I think the reason is: Because HTC is taking a step in the right direction.

If consumers end up hating this approach, then the trend for ****ty cameras with high MPs will continue.

Hating on the Ones Camerea without recognizing that at least HTC is take a step in the right direction, will hurt consumers in the long term.

If you are a huge Camera lover, I think u should purchase the HTC One, just to show companies that we need better cameras, not more MP.
[One (M7) General] Jeremy:
Guys, should we wait for the Galaxy S4 or hop onto the One?

[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Do you literally spend all day at HTC threads, trying to prove HTC is bad? Come on man!
[One (M7) General] hapticc:
Yup Gs2 was better than sensation

But you are wrong with one x and s3. If something sells more that doesnt count its the best. HTC ONE X WAS better in design i owned and used both devices. HTC ONE X was better in battery department too though 1800 mAh it lasted just as s3 due to power management by htc kernel and teagra 3 cores. BENCHMARKS on both was sort of equal though s3 was tad better. Camera was HTC weakness. Its pics were very bad compared to s3 and front cam was absolutely bizzare. Though samsung with added feautures in new update like multi window smart stay etc has good software sense has its own charm. Everyone has different needs there is no ultimate phone currently so stop asking others what to buy. Whatever you like buy it without hesitance it will be best for you
[One (M7) General] BarryH_GEG:
History is repeating itself. Last year the (Teg3) One X launched a month ahead of the SGS3 and many early adopters had regrets. Primarily due to the battery life, lack of expandable storage, and initial h/w and s/w QC issues. The One X was a beautiful device (I had one) and the display was (and still is) the best of its generation of devices. If the SGS4 has Octa it will outperform S-600. But truthfully, we're at the point where the h/w is so far ahead of the demands placed on it by s/w it wouldn't matter. A 5" non-PenTile 1080P SAMOLED display should be at least equal to the One's taking in to account some people like LCD or SAMOLED better so opinions will always vary. If you're a diehard HTC and/or LCD fan buy the One. If you're open there's no harm in waiting until the middle of March when the SGS4 is supposed to be announced to see what features Samsung’s added to it so you can make a comparison. The One’s all-aluminum design is pretty radical so it might make sense to let other people go first and monitor user comments after the phone has been in people’s hands for a few weeks.

As for Samsung's devices being plastic, big deal. They're well built from high quality materials and are extremely durable. The matte finish on the back of the One X and DNA rub off and fixing it is a $125 repair. Damage the back of a Samsung device and a replacement cover is $20. I bought the One X over the SGS3 because I liked its design and display better but would have been perfectly happy with the SGS3 if I went that direction. And the One X was a troubled device for HTC so it's not like their phones are consistently built any better. Like comparing any design, to each their own.

Those of you who posted that you have the hd2, that is the most legendary beast of a phone ever. And the dev for it is 2nd to none . You can run a few different OSs, hell, you'll probably be running Ubuntu from it too (if not already lol). Always been envious of that device.:o

From my Evo LTE, yup.
[One (M7) General] Goku80:
best post i have seen so far around the forum..nice to see you again Barry mate..well said and absolutely true what you are saying...i did the mistake last year and rushing and getting the One X on release..i will be waiting before i will make the jump again..not in a hurry for a phone...so will read members posts and see if there will be any issues..hopefully not but i am more prepared this time round than last year..but if i want to choose i probably go for the S4...but i will wait and see

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_iv_said_to_pack_solux_screen_and_qualcomm_cpu-news-5587.php

If the S4 is packing the same chip as the HTC........that makes me err to HTC.....

Only other factor now is battery.......but if the DNA with a bigger screen and smaller battery got good battery life , then HTC one should be better?

I am not a "power user" whatever that means - always have two phones....

Primary one to make calls/texts/long battery life is my old n trusted Nokia E71

Second one which i use for net etc was the Original desire.......hopefully will be replaced by HTC One

if s4 comes with snapdragon 600 with no amoled screen htc one have great chance of sucess.

Yes i hope the tide turns HTC way after that announcement of SAMSUNG using same chipset..its overclocked to 1.9 ghz which does not make a difference..And they will be using Solux display. Which is athe same LCD display..But LCD 3 will always be better..

Also it will be plastic :P So htc all the way!
[One (M7) General] rkial:
1.7GHz v 1.9GHz.. not a problem

Screen. Hard to get better than the HTC

Build quality... HTC wins

4.7" v 5" screen .. personal preference I guess.

UI. again. Personal preference..

Where the Samsung would be better

2300 mah v 2600 mah battery. (+ removable battery)

memory expansion.

and at least in India, better service centers and support.

Leaning towards the HTC for now.. waiting to see how its priced here... and what Samsung has to offer.

Definately

If you love slick design, htc sense (like me). It's a no-brainer! HTC will probably release an HTC ONE+ but that will be somewhere in oktober 2013 with only some minor upgrades. I already pre-ordered mine :eek:
[One (M7) General] matheus_sc:
I think gs4 will have better performance, removable battery and sd, but screen and build quality is best em htc one

[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Alien vs. Predator :p
[One (M7) General] B_Callender:
Love what I am seeing and hearing of the HTC One but I learnt my lesson from being an early adopter of the HTC One X, where they subsequently released the HTC One X+ addressing basic issues from the former with better components, and battery and a higher clock speed of the processor. I will wait given that the rumored s4 will carry the same processor but clocked at 200Mhz more than the HTC ONE It's not far fetched for me to think that HTC will release a ONE + based on presidency.
[One (M7) General] fahadsul3man:
samsung's build quality has always been dodgy on s2 and s3 phones speaking from my very own experience , which premium quality are you talking about ?
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
I think when he's talking about quality, he's addressing the One
[One (M7) General] Chillz88:
You are exactly in my position.lol.. maybe if samsung as rumored ti be using solux lcd, it might be a different story.. I dont mind plastic.. but it has ti have a good design better than the s3 .and at least decent looking as compared to the htc one x plastic

AW: Do you guys think it's worth buying the HTC One?

Yeah your right if we get sense 5 it is enough at least for a year
[One (M7) General] irzero:
i really hate these LCD displays its such an inferior technology to oled. The only thing they are good for is black text on white backgrounds. Android is all black so its a total loss. Colours just arent that good on these displays. Brightness is a total waste of time given that your battery goes from full to empty on any kind of decent brightness. With no removable battery this is a big issue. Im also not sure 1080p is worth it any more. 720p seems to be perfect balance.

Im seriously thinking about a note 2 now with the RGB Amoled display in LTE. Samsung is letting me down by loving to LCD on the S4. i really dont want LCD they are so boring.
[One (M7) General] Pointlol:
Lmao what? Guess what the display the one x is using (you know, the widely recognized best screen on mobile phones ever). That's right, LCD..
[One (M7) General] irzero:
Yes i know but it cant compete with Amoled colours and also its LCD 2 in 720p. 1080p kills the colour and brightness of the phone it makes LCD even worse. The one x does have a nice screen but you can wave goodbye to that screen now it will never be used on a flagship again now. I couldnt live with the One X anyway just for the screen
[One (M7) General] Pointlol:
From the first impressions of the phone people have been saying that it looks AT LEAST as good as the One x's screen. That alone means you should not worry, it will be an impressive screen, we will have to wait for a full review to see the details though
[One (M7) General] irzero:
Well unlike what people say. i actually had the phone in my hands about an hour ago. It didnt really impress me infact im having a hard time remembering anything impressive about it.

If you want to get the best out of it then basically you wont have enough battery to get through the day.
