Why did you have to start the flame here....

Whatever you may say, The Galaxy S4 is on the front page of every phone company you may know, It will sell much more than your premium HTC One. Its a personal preference, go get your HTC One, enjoy your premium finish for a week, wait for updates forever and STFU!

Didn't HTC One X receive the 4.1 update before S3?

In their dreams, the S3 is about to get 4.2.1 now, there's a leaked one already.

That is because you won't see a difference after the update other than the base of the android on sammy devices.

Samsung selling point is not hardware or built quality, the secret is the price. For example i can get a S3 for $480 but if i want buy a iPhone i need to spent $680 & for Nokia Lumia 920 around $690.
People know all Samsung's product are made using glossy toy grade plastic. but like them because of the price point of view.

Maybe outside of the US. In the US, everyone buys with contract so all high end phones come in at the $200 mark. Therefore, I don't think this argument makes sense at least in the states. Also, Lumia 920 is only $50-$100 on contract and only $450 off contract. Therefore it is actually the cheapest, and has seen a decent amount of sales because of that. I actually think Samsung sells well simply because of their marketing, people see ads mocking the iphone and trying to make it seem cool to own a Samsung. It literally using Apple's strategy against them! Also, the large screens(with small bezels keeping the overall phone size down) tend to sell better because people think they are getting more for their money.

enjoy your device,,,,,and pray for timely updates and features maybe someday it will come....but sammy still have a flexible screen to whip your device in the future....so it will be a long wait.....enjoy your "Beautyphone" while i enjoy my "Smartphone"....oh your device just got whip by an S4 demo device in Antutu...25900 to 20600....and that is the US variant...not yet the octa core

25. beefalo posted on 15 Mar 2013, 14:16 1 1

Who cares what benchmark their phone gets? As long as the experience is smooth and responsive I could care less....
This is definitely one thing android fans don't understand about the iPhone. Either way I think the HTC One looks very sexy, but I like the SIV due to the smaller bezel leading to a smaller phone and the larger battery.

Sweety that's why there's the modding community :D

Except no amount of software can fix the horrible button placement on the HTC One. I guess you can add on screen buttons but that would make it look bad if you had both on screen and capacitive buttons.

You are totally wrong!

Sony Xperia Z use Snapdragon S4 Pro (APQ8064)

Samsung Galaxy S IV use Snapdragon 600 (APQ8064T)

The same question is for you, who mentioned HTC One???
Your comment #33 is below voxmarc's comment #18 in which he has posted a link to the YouTube video about Samsung Galaxy S IV vs Sony Xperia Z. And in evarod48's comment #22 there also no word about HTC One. The why you are replying about HTC One???

Tell them please, you shouldn't spend your precious money on devices that don't have continuity, HTC One will be obsolete in no time, don't even get me started on Sony devices, xperia z is already obsolete
