And while we are still waiting for the elephant in the house, the Samsung Galaxy S IV, to arrive on March 14th in New York, we can still look at how the HTC One changes the existing phone landscape.
And it certainly does change it - with an HTC UltraPixel Camera with superior low-light performance, a unibody aluminum design, and a brand new version of HTC Sense on top of Android. You have probably already heard about all that, now take a look at the pure specs, the stuff that gets geeks excited, and the true backbone of any smartphone.
With a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600, the HTC One can definitely stand its ground against all the rest. What is it facing as a competition right now? Take a look right below.
