I hear all of you! Yea i ordered the one in the 16th and actually was one of the few to get it the 17th. Btw i dont have a receipt for it. I'm sure they can just look up the imei or something right?

For those with both phones, how's the gs4 screen compared to the one? And is that. 3 inches that noticeable?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ratchetjaw:
Sent my One back (mine may have been faulty from what I read) but now dont regret it one bit. Loving my gs4. The TV app is working soo much better for me than the HTC one. Both great phones
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lunercrab:
Yeah wasn't crazy about the tv app either...I used peel once on a galaxy tab I owned...liked that much better....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ratchetjaw:
Yeah I couldn't get the Htc One to work with my Direct Tv box. Neat thing it didnt at first with this one but this one took me through a simple ir/rf reconfiguration and viola controls everything. So simple yet I am loving it lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] phoneu:
You are a lucky guy! One and s4 are all great phones. I suggest you to try Mac one day... :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] aafevo:
I had the One pre-ordered on 3 different occasions, twice through HTC.com and both canceled due to stock issues and once through AT&T and canceled due to it not arriving when expected. I got my S4 today and also went by the AT&T store and checked out a One while I was there... The display model they had seemed nicely built but I wasn't blown away by any means or at least what I was expecting. I also found BoomSound to be far over rated than what HTC made it out to be. Maybe I was just expecting too much to begin with but I wasn't impressed. Loving my S4 and Smart Rotation is by far one of the best features out there, especially if you're like me and constantly laying down and texting :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sabre31:
I have the HTC one and just got a s4. The HTC one is build nicer and has 64gb storage which I like but s4 is way better IMO. I like all the software features on the s4, the hardware home button, the menu button. HTC sense 5 removed a lot of features that sense had which I liked. I feel sense 5 is lacking. I also hate the fact that you have a 4.7 inch screen but because of no dedicated menu button most apps take up a big portion of realty space on the screen for the menu options. It drives me nuts makes it seem like I am using a 4 inch screen. Also the capacitive buttons don't register sometimes on first touch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] aafevo:
I couldn't agree more with the screen part... Having an S4 where basically the phone is a whole screen vs seeing the One which has a lot more around the screen, it made the One screen look tiny.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ratchetjaw:
Felt the same way. Loving the s4. If they would have had 32 and 64gb at launch it would have been perfect
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mr_sock:
What about getting the SD card?

You mean like EVERY SGS4 FANBOY POST ALL OVER THE INTERNET, TURN ABOUT IS FAIR PLAY.

If I'm 7 then I guess the Samsung crowd is still in their twos. Go me. Woohoo! Thanks for the compliment.

I wonder how many people here are paid by Samsung to make up lies about The One? That would never happen right?

If sgs4 is actually better, than why is Sammy scared of The One enough to have to resort to DISINFORMATION tactics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] raqball:
The real question is who cares? Other than nutcases, fanboys, trolls, and the immature?

Get the phone that YOU like and rock it!

Is it really that difficult to act like the professional that you claim to be?

Good grief man!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] c5satellite2:
Check out your zero gap construction, horrible multitasking, joy of a button layout, and support after 4 months.

Zero gap, mine is flawless.

Horrible multitasking, works fine and doesn't LAG THE PHONE

Support after 4 months, I think you have HTC and Samsung confused.

"Mine"... What a troll
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] obiaquino:
One thing I don't agree with is when people say I switched from the one to the sg4 or viceversa because one is lighter then the other...

I feel these phones on are the verge of being too light... When I take out my one im always afraid of dropping it... I feel it's so light...

Me coming from a long line of iPhones, evo 4g and most recently the nexus... Those are reaaaally light...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ap3604:
Don't they charge you a $35 restocking fee for using and then returning the HTC One? :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blackplague1347:
Sure do. I took my One back on day 13 of my 14 day period to give the gs4 a shot. Cost me $35 plus the difference in phone price. After some time I'll make a decision about which to keep. If I get the One again, it'll be the international edition for sure though. The S4 is nice, but the lag is awful for a 2013 flagship, and I still don't get why the keyboard doesn't correct my mistakes automatically.

I wonder if the Exynos version has the same lag issues as the S600 does. There is no LTE in my area, so the international S4 is an option as well, I guess.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nohcho:
Let us know what you decide and why. I have sgs4 and still can't decide if I want to keep it or not

Did you try turning off some of the gestures? Might help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rschauby:
The S4 is not giving me buyers remorse, but I'm scared Nexus 5 (or Nexus 4S LTE), Motorola X phone, and the Note 3 will give me remorse.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] valleng:
I'm honestly not experiencing any lag on my gs4 and i have all the features and gestures enabled =/. Maybe i got lucky idk but i can't see much of a difference in performance between both phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] LR07:
i have to agree with you about the galaxy phones being more "exciting". I had the nexus 4 and people who had the s3 or note 2 i always had to play around with and just see all the features.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] phositadc:
I own both phones and I agree with this. The BEST GS4 pictures beat the BEST One pictures, but the AVERAGE One picture beats the AVERAGE GS4 picture.

Almost every picture I take with the One is good and usable, indoor or outdoor. With the GS4, outdoor pictures are beautiful, but with indoor pictures you often have to take 2 or 3 to get a usable one, thereby missing many picture opportunities. I know the reviews say GS4 is better, but all I can say is use both for a few days. I think most people who take any number of indoor shots will prefer the One. If you have the steady hands of a brain surgeon, maybe you will get better results from the GS4 indoors.

Sent from my HTC One
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joshuadjohnson22:
Went from the S4 to the One and haven't looked back. I was not a fan of the S4, the screen didn't seem right (Hazy whites, ugly UI) and had a lot of lag even after I removed the bloat. I'm happy, I really wanted to like the S4 because I prefer the layout, feel, look, removable battery and sd card slot... But you can't win them all. I LOVE my One and glad I switched
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nohcho:
That's great. My biggest pet peeve with the galaxy line, is Samsungs continued use of the amoled screens which are pure garbage. If only they would utilize lcd screens like HTC or Apple, would have the been the best phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] falconeight:
I couldn't take it anymore and traded it for a htc one. I feel bad because I told the guy I traded that it rocked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joshuadjohnson22:
I couldn't agree more. Here is to hoping for the s5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kevnuke:
How are they garbage? I went straight from the original AT&T Captivate to a SGS4 and love that I can still save battery (not that I really need to try anymore) just by switching to a dark theme. A lot of apps look better that way anyway..like XDA Premium :p

EDIT: typo

Swyped from the 4th Galaxy on XDA Premium
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sn707:
Well I have the phone sickness. I returned my Att 64gb One because of some bad gaps on top and bottom. All the stock at my local Att had gaps. I preordered my S4 and love it. Now I am waiting for my One developer that will be here tomorrow. I plan on using both, but I will send the Dev One back if it has gaps. We will see!

The good news is they are both amazing phones. The locked bootloader on the Att S4 is a bummer but I am okay with stock with bloat disabled for now. I am using the One wallpapers on my S4 and they look amazing, so much better than the included Samsung ones.

---------- Post added at 12:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 PM ----------

Haha great minds think alike.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ratchetjaw:
Haha good deal. I actually ended up returning my gs4. My rooted Rom'd One with nee kernel has been awesome and all issues fixed. May get another s4 when the 32gb go on sale but honestly happy with just the One. But both great phones
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Truitt.Jack:
I would say the .3 is noticeable, I came from the S3 to S4 and I definitely noticed. And screen quality is all opinion, I personally like the colors of the S4 screen, be they true or not. They're just so vibrant.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] NovaSlim:
It is very noticeable, in fact if you calculate it with Pythagorean theorem, GS4's 5" screen( 10.68 mm^2) is 13% larger than HTC One's 4.7"(9.44mm^2). Having used both, the One's screen looks even smaller due to the black bezel around it.

Here is a screen area calculator site if you forgot geometry already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Truitt.Jack:
Well I'm a Freshman in highschool so I just took geometry. But you don't need to know to tell that the S4's screen is bigger. Glad we agree :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Nexii:
Dude. A^2+B^2=C^2

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 PM ----------

I think that sense was dumbed down to much from what it used to be. Samsung on the other hand has many dmb features that make it a better phone software wise. I still have my one. My s4 is my daily driver. The screen is better on my S4 IMO. I find the camera the same if you bump up to the 13MP on the s4. Both produce the 4:3 aspect ratios. Really it comes down to software. Which makes touch wiz far superior IMO.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Truitt.Jack:
I was referencing my education as in I understand the Pythagorean theorem. Anyways, since you do have both phones, I would like to take this opportunity to ask you. Which of the two has better battery life? (on stock, that is) I keep getting that "The grass is greener on the other side" feeling. So whenever I feel like my battery has died a little to quickly on a certain occasion, I tend to wonder if I wouldn't have that problem if I had the One, and at some times even an iPhone 5. Usually whenever my battery falls below 50% ish on an afternoon and I'm with a friend who has an iPhone and I glance at their battery and it is higher than mine. It bothers me, ever so slightly, but I usually forget how much I use my phone. But on the other hand, I've had times where I'm with some friends who all have iPhones and all their phones are dieing and I still have a few hours left of juice in my battery. So if you could just fill me in on your side of my little predicament, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your help :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Nexii:
I really don't keep track of battery percentages. I hate the battery meters with percentages, because I feel that if I see how much is left, I feel that it drains even faster as I am aware of how much is left. I tend to go by the day. If it last me a day, from my morning start to the end of work at night when i get home its fine for me. If it doesnt last me, then I know I have a problem as in something is draining and WTF is it. In regards to which has better life, I feel that I can do a tad more on my S4 than on my One.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] asdfuogh:
The S4 is the better choice, by far. Lack of microsd and battery access? :/ This isn't even mentioning the bigger screen.

(Though, people don't like AMOLED, but I personally don't give a **** so it's different for me.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] skivnit:
I was actually looking to get a One just to see what the fuss was all about. However, as every phone I discovered the phone has a lot of issues(not talking about sd and removable battery) so now I'm hesitant. I'm happy with my s4, it does have its own issues, but wanted to try something new, I'll be keeping both
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] plmiller0905:
I don't know why people make a big deal about the One not having a SD Card, not having a removable battery I can understand to a certain point...but otherwise the One beats the S4 overall in my opinion.

First off the display shows excellent in the sunlight, it's easily viewable in sunlight. Whereas on the S4, the screen looked dull and washed out in sunlight...and turning the brightness all the way up, really didn't do it any justice.

The build of the One is superior. However, I like the build of the S4 as well. To me the S4 feels less slippery than the One.

Yes, the S4 has a lot more features than the One. But I barely used those features. The only time I "really" used them was when I was showing the phone off. Otherwise they sat dormant.

I do like the cam on the S4 as far as taking pics. I also like the features of both phones..but I like Zoe a little bit more though.

What made me definitely keep the One was the ability to change my ATT One to a Developer Edition One and get updates straight from HTC instead of ATT :) I figures that when the Nexus One is released I'll be able to convert my One to a Nexus Experience One.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] NovaSlim:
For me( I switched to GS4 after using a HTC One for a week) the reason were the bigger screen, needed more details out of my daylight photos, and I can get 50+GB of storage cheaper(through SD card) for my video collection.

The screen for the GS4 isn't as good as One in sunlight but I can deal with it,I also like the S4 button layout and extra features. It is all a matter of personal preference and opinions in the end, both a great phones but offer such contrasting features.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] plmiller0905:
I do agree with you that outside pics on the S4 does have more detail than that if the One.

I was looking on my laptop of some pics I took between the two, and the S4 pics did show mire detail and seemed more vivid as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] aimfire72:
I got the One at launch and the S4 just last week. As others have mentioned, they both have their strengths and weaknesses. I'm kind of torn about which one to keep, but leaning towards the S4 right now... I'm a heavy user and have found battery life to be much better on the S4. I'm also amazed at how fast the S4 charges! I could deal with the battery life on the One, but problem is, it takes so damn long to charge that phone, I'm talking a good 3-4 hours at best to get to 100%. The S4 charges twice as fast. This one thing alone will probably cause me to keep the S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] galaxyjeff:
I think the HTC one is nice but the weight of it and not having gorilla glass 3 or DDR 3 ram makes it not quite as cutting edge as Sammy's phone. It's still a nice phone though. It also doesn't have the latest version of android out of the box.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] aimfire72:
Yup, and the 4.2.2 leaks don't even support lockscreen widgets... It might come later, but who knows. :rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] plmiller0905:
It doesn't...but that's not a deal breaker for many. In all honestly, it only takes a second to pull down the notification app to check your email...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] aimfire72:
No, not a deal breaker, but a main feature of 4.2.2. No idea why they've omitted it, at least so far.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Weldzor:
I had both, currently with the S4 due to extended battery capabilities. (The note 2 spoiled me).

Stock for Stock the UI on the HTC is fast like a stock 4.x.x nexus

Which basically means faster "in phone" use, like navigation of menus (and by faster we are talking fractions of seconds)

However if you want lots of "Stuff" the S4 has buckets, none of which you will really use, save a few key features like lifting the phone to your ear to make a call when ever you have any "contact" information on screen or when you are in a text message screen.

The short cuts are key to making the phone workable (workable to me is basically faster than you can move your fingers to the next button) with all the UI "lag" again fractions of seconds.

However the stock camera on the HTC is worth keeping the phone for alone. ****en fast and perfect, Blows the doors off the Samsung camera in terms of speed.

Just some of my endless banter for ya
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
Still very happy with my S4 Active. Screen is just as wonderful as the HTC One, very bright and sharp but bigger. Battery life on my first day off wifi was 5hrs of screen on time with 18hours off charge, and the build is much improved over the S4. Those two features alone made my decision to leave the HTC much easier.

Oh, and Lag? None. My S4 Active actually performs more smoothly than my HTC One did on Dev Edition and ARHD11 (which means the Active is ~18x faster and more smooth than the main S4)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] plmiller0905:
What's up Rob...I almost grabbed a Active the other day...but I got another S4 coming ..lol

I can't believe that the Active has no lag at all when compared to the One. Especially when the internals is the same as the S4..I'm gonna have to drive up to the ATT store to check it out. I haven't experienced any android phone that's as smooth as the One.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
Well there is a lack of some of the software in the Active coming from the S4, there is just almost 11gb available on the Active vs the 9.6ish on the S4. Plus, its on a newer software version (MF3) so perhaps that could have something to do with it. The home button still lags because of the whole S-Voice ability, but that should be understandable. NO root yet, so I have to enjoy the phone with all the garbage ads on the phone (only reason I root is for AdAway). I like it alot, the screen is nicer IMHO than the One. Its more white where its supposed to be, One looked more yellow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ratchetjaw:
The thing is if you can't save some things to your card. Download 4 hd games and your about at maxed memory. Pics movies and what not can be on your card. If you don't have a lot of Hd games you would be fine also
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sabre31:
I agree wish they had 32gb available on release day or even 64gb. SD card is great but all apps and games install on internal memory and fill up fast.

Go with S4.

You are assured to get your money's worth.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] americasteam:
Just played with the S4 in store for about 45 minutes. I'm returning my One for the S4 in the morning. In my opinion, the screen is not as sharp or as bright as the One, but it still looks good. My biggest thing is multitasking. HTC is still being very aggressive and it just kills the way the OS functions. With my limited time, the S4 just seems to work. It also seems to be easier to navigate with one hand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lunercrab:
I completely agree with u....I hated htc's multitasking one the one x (which I'm on now as a backup phone) and tho there was slight improvement on the one, I still found it refreshing my apps....drove me nuts....that and the camera wasn't that great and the gallery app was a mess...I'm hoping this s4 bootloader lock is fixed soon cause I really want to get the s4 but I may have to jump back on the HTC one again...though for me a stock Samsung is still a bit better then a modded one for me at least....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] valleng:
Yeah looks like I'm most likely making the switch
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Daygo:
Agghhh, back to the should I, shouldn't I...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lunercrab:
Me personally I would...I mean the return fee sucks...I'm actually (though I probably wont) am thinking about waiting on the s4 a couple of weeks...give myself more time to figure out what I want and if I decide it's the HTC one again...I'll just rebuy it...hopefully by that time they will have it in black and maybe the 64g version will be available...I actually wanted black to begin with....all I know is I miss my s3....lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] madlaw1071:
Wow, this +1000

Have had the One since last Saturday and gave it every opportunity to impress me beyond its good looks and it didn't. Sense 5 is completely stripped and boring. The buttons for power, back and home are terrible as noted and BoomSound does nothing for me since my phone is always on vibrate and I listen to media thru headphones.

Getting the S4 tomorrow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] valleng:
Yep i feel i fell ibto the premium built hype machine. The soft buttons are garbage i gotta prrss them like 5 times or some times gotta lock than relock for them to be usable.

Idk if i have to pay the restocking fee because i ordered online. For the Note 1 i wasnt charged one but whatever ill bite the bullet. Who wants to buy some barely there and candyshell grip cases
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lunercrab:
I have to admit only thing I loved about the phone were the speakers facing front....another thing that did me in was the non removable battery....that's one of the first reasons why I left apple for android...that and well I hated apples god complex...and I was really questioning why I wanted to go back to a phone that I was stuck tied to a charger....when I had my iPhone and visited NYC my battery was dead in a few hours and then I was screwed...thought never again....with my s3 I carried around two batteries with me so I never ran out....
