Blinkfeed - yes, I need that
Boom sound.. - Great!
Simple button layout- i like it s lot..
4ultra pixel - suit me. More good picture for less space. In fact i like 720p video than full hd.
And gorgeous design... My next phone..

Well done GSM ARENA for a very good comparison between these two Android beasts! I am a little disappointed that the HTC One came out second best in a number of the tests but having owned a Galaxy S3 for the last year or so, I would love to now upgrade to the HTC One.
Having spent £500 to purchase the Galaxy S3, I hate the fact that it feels like a toy. The hyperglaze finish is so smooth that it is almost impossible to use the S3 without a cover.
With the S3 I feel compelled to use a cover because when I am not using a cover, I notice that paint is chipping from the (faux metal) edges and it is also very easy to drop due to it's (very) smooth finish.
This debate about build quality reminds me of Macbook Pro versus the countless Windows machines that have far greater specs but are let down by the build quality and finish.
I have a Macbook Pro and even in a room full of high spec Windows machines, mine still elicits envious looks.
When the spec differences are so minor - I know which device I would prefer to have!
PS: For the HTC One; Don't worry about no toggles in notification bar. Simply download "Power Toggles" from Google Play and Pin the "widget" into the notification bar - Job done!

HTC lost the battle marginally. i thought it would be more of another one sided duel. well done HTC. i was really worried with the battery. But its also close to S4. now i have no doubt in my mind getting the One, to rule them all :) looks, build and design is more important to me than just some gimmicks.

Anonymous, 27 Mar 2013Hey boy, Xperia Z don't even come close to these two supe... moreHTC One doesn't stand a chance in front of Z... It looks like BB-Z10, yet you say that it has the best design... You're pathetic like HTC one... Man, Xperia Z has the best design... Don't speak, if you've not had it on your hand... Also One's cam bows in front of Z's cam... Noe has the worst cam for a flagship... Now go daydream about one... Mark my word... Z's now selling like hot cakes... Then S4 will come to top... One will stay in shelves unsold...!!!

Stan, 27 Mar 2013I don't really agree that the SIV is smaller than the One. ... moreThe S4 is 1.4mm thinner than the One, which matters more than small differences in height and width.

A lot of but hurt Sam fanboys here. I got a One and its amazing, I'll be getting a S4 too. Hardly any of you can form an opinion on the One till you've used one and when you do, you'll be blown away by the screen, speakers and design. Nothing gimmick about it, its brilliant and I've been a big HTC hater in the past. This phone is beautiful.

S4 blows htc one in every way, but I was horrified to see samsung have dropped the RDS Radio on the S4. WTF.. This alone is a deal breaker for me. I will stay with my S3. still the best all ropund phone... samsung u gonna regret this..

I don't really agree that the SIV is smaller than the One. And I've seen many sites state it... It's 0.8 mm shorter but 1.6 mm WIDER. Noone mentions that. Of course it's 5 vs 4.7 inches but I'm talking about the dimensions of the body regradless the screen.
