Copying yet again? Sure it is apple-innovative but not industry-innovative.

The lack of basic features:
1) no default app selection
2) no free copy file
3) no free open any object
4) just icons
5) stolen statusbar
will fix a "nicer" look?
They really must think their customers are very limited :-)

Their customers "are" limited.

You chose the HTC One? What led you to the One over the S4?

He likes to test the devices out and see which one he likes more. There is nothing wrong with that at all. I have the droid Dna but im probably giong to get the s4 and keep my dna till i decide which one i like more. There is nothing wrong with see which device you like better.

Who the fcuk gave you those red thumbs?
I wonder if they have pea sized brains!
Jezz...cut the man some slack! Stupid fanboys!!

It was a question, not me bashing him. People on this site literally need to read carefully. All I asked was his opinion in why he chose to go with the HTC One, meaning what grabbed him in making his decision. No bashing, hatred, or insult was intended.

67. javac (Posts: 102; Member since: 04 Mar 2013)

The reason I said that was more because of the thumbs down i knew would be thrown around as soon as i read his and your comment. To be honest I hate that everyone on here attacks everyone without being educated about everything themselves. I personally work at Verizon selling these phones every day. I just want people to get the device that suits them best. IDC if that the iphone5s, galaxy s4 or the revere. as long as they are educated and they can answer why that phone is the one they want. Im thinking about writing articles for Phonearena just because there is so much bias that it kills me to watch people post things that are incredibly miss leading.

Not chose, but may be "choosing". The s4 I tried out had a lot of lag, and none of the gestures worked when I tried them. They were delayed to the point where I got frustrated, and just used my finger. Also the video camera has no auto compression/auto edit so if the file is too large it simply says can't attach, file size too large, which I don't like. The One performed flawlessly Smurf, it was plain and simply the better working phone. I honestly think Sammy made a mistake by cramming in sooo much, and not upping the ram. The HTC One is very beautiful, and smooth bro...just being honest.

The guys at celltraderonline were mixed about the S4, but I haven't heard of anyone who has had much luck with all of the gestures. Given that Android, TW, and system apps make up over 8GB of internal storage, I could see lag being a problem.

28. darkkjedii (Posts: 24353; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)

Yep that's another thing I don't like, AT&T only sells the 16 gig rite now, and you only get 9 gigs. I'll catch hella flack for this, but even with a 64 gig sd I'd still want more internal storage. If I get an s4 I'd have AT&T order me a 32 gig.

Whats TW?

Touch Wizz Samsung's Android UI name.

35. blingblingthing (Posts: 570; Member since: 23 Oct 2012)

I agree Jedii. Fron what I've seen from the S4 and HTC One videos, the HTC definitely is more snappy hile S4 has its delayed animations. I definitely would would go with a HTC one over a S4.

37. darkkjedii (Posts: 24353; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)

That's what I'm thinking too bro

Are you in the US? From the little I've read, the Exynos/PowerVR international version is the big brother.

38. darkkjedii (Posts: 24353; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)

Yeah I'm in Vegas Ted. We got the snapdragon version. I seriously think there's more features than RAM though Ted.

Ton and Tons of bloatware. It's insane. A lot of it can be disabled, and if rooted, uninstalled. Still, if you only disable and ignore the gimmicks, it's an amazing phone. I bet you anything that samsung goes for a more dumbed down approach next, like HTC did with the One.

55. darkkjedii (Posts: 24353; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)

And I hate tampering with a device, I just feel you shouldn't have to. It should be strictly a want ya know?
