I would choose the samsung galaxy s4, their processors do not compare to anything seen so far, the level of a computer, lower-middle range. already been demonstrated throughout his presentation, samsung galaxy s4 has no limits, the best are the updates from samsung.

I'll probably be hopping on the HTC train. The looks are amazing and the performance appears to be great. Been with Samsung for a while. Time to mix things up!
[General Topics] KidCarter93:
That's what I done. Even though I've had more Sony's than anything else, the phone I've had longest out of all and my favourite phone was the S2.

It got water damaged and couldbt be repaired so I decided that I'd give HTC a try as I've never had one before.

I can safely say I've made the right choice and as long as HTC can keep this up, I'll be sticking with them for a while.

Great review
[General Topics] crford:
From a high level approach, I would prefer the One. Sense 5 looks better than Touchwiz all day long and the One seems to be put together better. As a device that I'm going to try to unlock the bootloader on, root and install ROMs, I'm not so sure. I'm not liking the path that HTC is taking by allowing AT&T to demand locked bootloaders and they haven't been very friendly to the developer community recently. That said, I'm really just here to get my post count to 10 so that I can post a bug report in a ROM forum for my OneX.
[General Topics] voyager_s:
I had an idea already after I saw both handsets. Now I've made up my mind without doubt. The HTC one for me.

The most beautifully built device I've seen in a log time I think. Specs are awesome as well. And sense has been toned down which is good.

My one should be here next well hopefully.

That thing is soo cool. There's just no fight.

Even if the s4 has even better performance (wich is hard to top, the One does not know what lag or slow means), this won't be enough against the wonderful built One.

The feeling of the One is just unbeatable.

I like the physical look of the One, but I really haven't heard anything great about it. Camera appears to be on the weaker side, the battery life seems only "alright", and even if Sense is better than TouchWiz, I prefer going to CM10.1 over stock anyway. Galaxy S IV for me.
[General Topics] -DarkKnight-:
HTC one would be more likely to get CM10.1 because it uses Qualcomm

That's because exynos source didn't exist

The HTC one also has better low light performance

[General Topics] G4 Man2:
The One is better. The main difference between the 2 is hardware and since your posting on this forum I doubt you have a problem with changing the software. The galaxy s line still looks like the crap and the one line still looks great. But let's talk about specs. The difference in specs are the processor, the screen, the battery, and the camera. The processor on the S4 is overkill. Most high quality gaming PC's only have 4 cores, nvm that they're running on x86 processors, the S4's processor is still overkill. That's why it needs a bigger battery so I'd say battery specs are about the same. The One's Screen is a little bit smaller but a higher pixel density and a better overall screen. None of that amoled crap that ruins whites. When it comes to the camera it's a toss up. things will look clearer on the S4's camera because of the higher MP count but the One's camera will be able to take better shots. The One is better.

Is anyone really "switching" sides?

I wonder how many users are considering actually "switching" brands (HTC-->Samsung or Samsung--->HTC); most people seem to defend and pump up the brand they are currently using while a small percentage seem to be critical of more than one thing about the phone use.

I own and love my HTC One S on T-MobileUSA, however, I do have things I am disappointed in i.e. battery life and a seeming lack of updates from the carrier (although mine is rooted and I run custom ROMs my wife does not).

The only thing that disappoints me about the HTC ONE's announced specs is the ultra pixels; while I think it's a great move for a broader market, it certainly does not fit my desires for higher quality expandable/editable photos/video that present and translate well across the most media possible. I may misunderstand the technology, but for my interests it seems they took a step backwards.

All that being said I wouldn't switch to a Samsung because I love "sense" and all the slightly tangible build quality differences that make my HTC something I have grown to love using.

[General Topics] AcquiredIntellect:
My GS3 is by far better then my wife's HTC one its faster the Super AMOLED HD is exquisite compared to htc's Super IPS lcd2 its not even comparable to the GS4 that's not far to HTC one bit...the international HTC is almost equal to the international GS3 which both have quad core processing capability awesome computer power but the HTC lacks the battery power the Samsung is capable of and it runs a lot more power and runs a lot hotter to run the LCD over Samsung's led. The Samsung is also alot easier to customize. There is no unlocking your boot loader through the company's website or having to relock it for any reason before you can even apply a custom recovery just to even root it. The HTC one will not even be in the same class as the gs4 its still trying to compete with the gs3

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 AM ----------

Correct now you have to factor in all the other hardware then assess the speed. So if HTC uses an LCD over an led like Samsung does it now sacrificed computing power and a lot of battery power and created much more heat. The LCD requires more processing power then the LED because of the pixel definition the processor has to send the image to the video controller (just a programmed micro controller) at a constant flow to keep the liquid crystal illuminated it can't remember. as the led is just sent once and remembered to keep the light on until something changes computer wise. The HTC microcontroller for the video also has to send to more pixels then the gs3 does there for more processor is working on the LCD display the samsung...now battery wise is even more ridiculous when using LCD over LED now your just making those HTC processors run hotter and there for less efficient. So at the end just having that display is going to make your phone slower so if you watch a movie on it its going to annihilate your battery and heat up all your components more then the Samsung would with the same processors
[General Topics] alpha-niner64:
HTC One for sure. Not only does it look better than the S4: the audio from what I've read from my sources says it's got great audio and sounds loud. Look forward to playing with it in the TMO-store.

Samsung lost my confidence when they decided to release the Galaxy S4 with the 600 chipset and stick to that "soap" design of a phone. Seriously: you can mistake a Samsung phone for a bar of soap.

ok, in some cases depending on the country the S4 is faster, but the ~10% more power does it really makes that big of difference?

Holding out for nexus 5 with Nikon 9mp sensor. I would get the one otherwise. Samsung's camera is more ideal except for the lens which screws it all so that's a no go. Trying to take a picture with that small of viewing area ruins the whole point. HTC one is much better build quality, better battery, and overall the better phone. Processors no longer matter much.
[General Topics] speedy56:
Very, very hard choice.

Actually, I dont really know.

Htc One looks better to me, but it has smaller screen. S4 on the other side has biger gorgeus screen, better camera, but is not that nice to me.

I think I`ll wait Sony because I think that will soon see at least one new flagship from them with IPS screen and IP57.

After dropping my 808 and having to repair it, I realized the HTC One is a no go as it is repairable. Also I've used the One and it's horrible, too smooth, no grip and not a great shape in the hand, also though the power button position means you cannot use it in one hand.

That said no Exynos and the design of the GS4 is also a no no for me, I just cannot get excited for it. Out of the two I'd go for the GS4 for repair-ability, though I'm going to ignore them both and wait to see if anything happens in may.

[General Topics] voyager_s:
I got the one yesterday. Spent a good few hours playing with it.

It is very beautiful indeed. The design screams quality all over. The twin front facing speakers are incredible. Really something else. Never heard sound this good on any smartphone. Fantastic.

The screen is very nice as well, but.

A big but...I prefer the HD super amoled screens. Been so used to that. Nexus s, galaxy note and galaxy nexus over the last 2 years and its hard not to notice the difference of an LCD.

While the one screen is fantastic in its own right, it does not have that same pop of the amoled. The colours don't have the same rich contrast and saturation for my personal taste.

I would still pick the one over the s4 I think. But I will be sending it back I think. I found it a little strange using sense again after so many years (since 2010). Even though sense 5 is so much different than previous versions.

Again I'm so used to AOSP stock android and I found myself not liking having to adjust too much to sense. Again its all little details, such as the settings menus, the app drawer, etc.

The bottom line is I will keep the galaxy nexus as my current handset until the next nexus is unveiled I think.

But the HTC one is excellent I think still. Battery seemed good as well. When I took it out the box it was charged to 70 something percent. Got I think 4 hours or so screen on time with half brightness, which is good in my books.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s1rrah:
This phone has never been modified, no custom ROMS, never rooted, using the latest OS from AT&T ...

And today, for whatever reason, when making originating a phone call, and once I've hit "dial" ... the phone screen goes completely black except for the status bar at the top (the one you can swipe down). I'm saying that whereas usually, after hitting "dial" and as the phone dials, you can actually see a screen full of information (hang up botton, number/name of who your dialing, etc.) ... in this case and now, there is just a black screen.

Though there is a black screen (other than the status bar at top), I can still hear the phone ring and even have a conversation should somebody answer. But when the call is over (the person on the other end has to end the connection because I have no screen interface to do such), the screen remains blank (other than the status bar at top) and none of the bottom, permanent keys are operative either ("home" / "back" / settings / etc.). To get back to the home screen, I have to pop the battery and re insert it and re start the phone. But even then, it's acting weird: when booting, at the "Reimagine Possilbe" screen (I think that's what it says) it hangs there for about 45 seconds (usually only about 5 when functioning correctly) and will eventually end up at the home screen.

But if I originate a call, the cycle repeats.

I've completely reset the phone to factory defaults at least three times, formatted the USB storage and the whole nine yards but it remains glitched as described above.

...

So... has anyone seen/heard of this?

I'm thinking of just warrantying the phone as it's only about 5 months and I figure AT&T should have no issue as it's such a replicable problem and it certainly doesn't seem to be software related as it's completely stock and multiple factory resets have not worked but wanted to put a line out here first to see if anyone else has experienced this.

Thanks in advance for any information.

Best,

Joel.

Just a llittle update ...

I changed the "Proximity Sensor" to OFF and now the normal iin-call screen appears but it never goes away, which can be problematic.

In general, I've always had the proximity sensor set to ON as this allows the in-call screen to blank after a few seconds (complete blank with no status bar at top) and then reappear when I remove the phone from my ear.

But when I re enable the proximity sensor, now ... the screen blanks immediately (excepting the status bar at the top) and never comes back ... even after my call recipient ends the call ...

I'm just gonna warranty at at the local service center; at this point (two days now with all my friends AT&T phones working fine) I'm pretty sure something is glitched with the internal sensor that manages the proximity settings ...
