Loved the fairness in engadget, but for some reason it felt a little plain

To be honest the verge review had more praise to the things they've liked

Anyway two things for sure the battery life is good and the camera does its claimed job, a compromise of detail for the sake of light and clarity

We need someone to give us full scale photos with sharpness -2

Lots of people are complaining about default noise reduction, which can be controlled using sharpness setting

It's also important to remember HTC's auto enhance feature (which "fixes" the photo, similar to the iPhone):

By the way, you see how multitasking works in this section of the video posted before:

http://youtu.be/rYo7ztJgWv0?t=7m58s

In my opinion a huge improvement over Sense 4+ AND Vanilla Android. You can get an overview way faster and switch to the app you want instead of scrolling an idiotic list. Seriously, I think the move from HTC and Google was a bit stupid as while it added some functionality (Swipe to kill), it made it just way more cumbersome to switch between apps.

And nobody can tell me that the missing MT button is a problem...especially for geeks like us. ;)

Well, maybe

Hyundai had an Elantra technology demonstrator in which a Nexus 4 used NFC to replace the keys, mirror apps to a console screen, and had a built in wireless charging base. Hyundai expects to bring these features to market in 2015 according to the article.

Basically, that can be done with NFC but is a bit more than a simple app.

I mean I get what they are trying to say, but HTCs decline has absolutely nothing to do with "overpriced" phones. It's not like the One will be the only phone they release this year.

By the way, am I the only one who thinks the official HTC One commercial is kinda strange?

The only things they mention:

- Full metal body (which is kinda not true)

- BlinkFeed

- Dual speakers

- Gallery/Zoe

I find that a bit strange. Especially the concentration on BlinkFeed...the things they show don't even look like Android. :s

My contribution :

I am a photographer, I use reflex camera since years and I wanted to tell those who doubt that 4 or 8 or 13 megapixels mean nothing in term of sharpness, at least on normal size pictures.

I develop lot of pictures and if I take the same picture in 2,3, or 12 megapixels size on 10x15cms picture you WON'T see any difference.

The most important is the lens and the compression of the file. :)

3 mega is ok for 30x45 cms poster...

I know you don't trust me ?

Make the test yourself then you won't believe marketing liars !

[One (M7) General] reddragon72:
I talked about this in another thread.

You also missed the lens quality, the size of the CCD/CMOS and the quality of the chip that computes all the info taken in. That last one is why a lot of photographers go for the RAW format. The less compression algorithms are used the better.

So in all HTC is heading down the right path with the bigger CCD and more open AP. Lets just hope that back-end processor doesn't kill it.
[One (M7) General] py_martinez:
Re: HTC Flagship 2013 - HTC One - Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 600 - Mega Information Thread

I agree red Dragon, I insist on lens quality first, no compression (raw or jpg 95 %) and I can print a perfect a4 picture (21x29'7 cm) with a 1 mega picture ! At least with my reflex :thumbup:

So 4 megapixels on the one x should be ok ......

Just afraid that lot of people (born with marketing megapixels trend) won't buy this jewel cause not having 13 megapixels camera ...:confused:

[One (M7) General] hamdir:
Guys allow me to explain a little...

HTC SLCD 2/3 screens are extremely bright, assuming its simply as good as the OneX if not better

I use my One X screen at 25% indoors, I still find it too bright and my iPad4 matches its brightness at 40%

The test ran at 65% which is not fair at all compared to the louzy screens on the Moto phones!

4:48 is actually impressive, you can get double of that at 32.5% brightness, not to mention if battery safer was used

Those with the One X Will know what I'm talking about, the sgs3 screen at 100% brightness is only half as bright as the One X
[One (M7) General] jmitr:
Re: HTC Flagship 2013 - HTC One - Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 600 - Mega Information Thread

And I will expand on what Hamdir is saying.

AnandTech runs their battery test with the screen set at xx lumens......not a percentage. That makes their test much more "standard" as every phone is tested at the same brightness level........literaly.

With the One X test, Anand even mentioned he had the One X set to a far lower "percentage" than both the S3 and Iphone (too lazy right now to google all the exact figures, but the point remains).

Re: HTC Flagship 2013 - HTC One - Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 600 - Mega Information Thread

I will disregard every review from here on from the verge. It's just not credible, the first review was with old software and not the final hardware. Android central reported this morning to disregard all reviews that were posted before noon today. As the final software was pushed out. So how could they have possibly done a true battery test? Answer=they couldn't and didn't. All other testers are quite a bit better, even though those should be disregarded as well. I will be waiting for a review done with the final device and software.

also with the announcement of the developer's edition for $649 for 64gb. sim/bootloader unlocked. could that mean the carrier pricing off contract would be cheaper? Surely, no one would buy a locked 32gb for $649 from a carrier when you can get a 64gb unlocked from HTC directly?

[One (M7) General] puremind:
This is what I have replied to the review:

Gareth - I can agree on the fact that your review is not biased if you accept to change one thing in your review. The standard techradar battery test is very unfair to the LCD screens, as they crank up much higher brightness than their OLED counterparts.

Therefore, for your tests to be unbiased, they should compare all phones at the same bightness level.

Also you say you had to push brightness up due to being in the dark, however the recommended brightness for watching films in a dark environment is only 100cd/m². about 25% of the phone's full brightness

You are saying that Samsung phones have much better battery, however screen is the most battery hungry component nowadays...you effectively comparing the S3 battery life by giving it an unfair 100% advantage, as the S3 screen is only half as bright as the One's at full brightness.

So look no further...This, my friend, is the reason why you found battery life to be really good in other situations than the ones in your main test...
[One (M7) General] hamdir:
yes its all in the brightness of these SLCDs sadly not many people "grasp" this

in fact compared to the One X those are very impressive resutls

with lower brightness and some tweaks it should reach 6-8 hours screen on easily

one thing to keep in mind however which i noticed when both the verge and techradar talked about watching a film, it seems the s600 is consuming too much battery during films

Tegra 3 for example consumes almost nothing when watching films, since they run on the low power core, all the consumption falls only on the screen

[One (M7) General] hamdir:
ok guys after seeing Engadget camera samples in full size and techradar

low light is just amazing, but we can clearly see lack of detail in outdoor distance shots, also some reviewer needs to try to reduce sharpness because it clear there is too much processing going

another issue is over exposing bright objects, but it can tweaked from the camera settings

anyway its' a good trade off, its not like your loosing detail for no good reason, some of the low light shots are out of this world, something you never thought possible on a smartphone

if you see the comparison shots in full, its only beaten by the 808 while the 920 is simply taking miserably blurry shots in low light due to its ridiculously slow shutter time

Gizmodo: HTC One Review: Damn Near Close to Perfect

This shot clearly reveals the big problem with tiny 13MP sensors and like i said about the battery 7 hours of video
[One (M7) General] omersak:
The HTC applies a heavy sharpening filter but the actual detail seems about the same (save for the close-up on that gizmo - the 920 clearly hasn't focused). The lumia also seems to have a more accurate white and color balance in certain situations (the second shot, especially).

The HTC One does significantly better than the 920 in attaining a well focused shot in low-light conditions - which is perhaps the most important thing. the HTC One OIS + Ultrapixel is better in this regard than the 920's OIS as it pulls in the same amount of light but at faster shutters, thus resulting in more reliably focused pics.

Overall, i'm impressed. I never really bought into the 'Ultra Pixel' thing but it's clear that the HTC One has the best camera for low light situations.
[One (M7) General] Shasarak:
There's an interesting comment higher up the review:

In other words, you really do have to turn the brightness up high and slaughter the battery when watching videos.

You could argue, on those grounds, that playing video is therefore not a representative test of probable battery live when doing anything else; but I don't think you can argue that they had the brightness up too high for the task in hand.
[One (M7) General] beno619:
The One does very well & is more true to like according the Micheal,The Microsoft fans on pocketnow are horrible tho.

That Exposure shot of the light is just WOW :D Id like to see how the One X handles that type of lighting.

The most impressive thing is that HTC have achieved competitive if not better results than the Lumia

without sacrificing weight and slimness of the phone, The One really is an Engineering masterpiece,better than anything Apple have ever produced IMO.
[One (M7) General] Tuborg68:
Among gizmodos pctures there is another example of this weird blurring of one side of the picture. Look at the left side of the street compared to the right. What a difference in sharpness. And this where the objects are one the same distance. Can it be problems with the OIS or a software issue?
