            thinesh, 24 Mar 2013best phone in this worldI so much disagree with u. iphone 5 is the best @ the moment cos what they did from SIII to S4 is change the increase the chipset, CPU and GPU to increase the speed. Thats a best facelift of S3

                    2nd no one or at least me ever said talk about stronger or not between aluminium and plastic or polycarbonate. It is about premium look and design feel.

                      S3 and S4 use "polycarbionate" that actually is far stronger than the rather weak aluminium! Titanium would impress me, but would be too expensive!

                            [deleted post]Thanks for your reply, it is very good point but I am not a sound expert and not really picky about the sound. I am more picky about the screen and the camera quality, it is true that the HTC One's screen is good but too bad they screw it with Ultra Pixel camera. I don't use digital camera so my phone camera will be the main one.

                            In this fight I might get S4 instead even though, I am adored by HTC One's design. The one thing left that might worry me is the S4 brightness, I saw other review said it is not even bright as Note 2 and note 2 is already not bright enough for me.

The only thing that I am fighting myself about now is Metal and Plastic.

                              But most likely I will go over to S4 because screen quality and pictures are more important for me. I don't like to look at picture with noise and not sharp. HTC One got everything I need to change over from an iPhone but why do they have to mess it up with new camera technology.

The main advantage of HTC One it has stereo loudspeakers front side of the phone, rather than backside. It really help when you make loudspeaker calls or listning or watching videos. And another thing is I heard many technical reviewers (engadget, Cnet) said HTC One display is the best display in the market.

                                    1st I would say I don't really like samsung smart phone because of plastic so I want to give you all my honest opinion on this phone and 1st reaction when it is launched. And I really wan't some help to decide between S4 and HTC One. (I will appreciated all feedback but please give it with fair point not because your are a fanboy). FYI: I'm an iPhone user

                                    When I 1st saw this phone on their launch event, I was like crap it look exactly the same as S3. However, when HTC One is getting delay for release in Australia I have spent more time to check out the S4. I was wrong at some point, yes it is same design language with S3, no doubt but when look closer the round bezel does look nicer compare to S3. I like how it is make like a ring around the phone. It does like like metal material but I guess it is plastic. On the back of the phone I like the lay out of camera and flash light and the texture on black one. It doesn't look bored like poor black color. Also it doesn't look curvy on the side of the phone like S3. The shape look better I would say.

                                    At this point I am standing in the middle of the fence, 1 side is S4, 1 side is HTC One. They are both good at some point and it is very hard for me to choose. I don't really care much about 1.7GHz or 1.9GHz because most of high end android phone now can do all the task smoothly, few extra GHz or number in benchmark won't make any difference. I don't care about battery life or removable battery because with Note II, I have to charge it twice a day anyway. SD Card is not really that important as long as they have 64GB internal or external I am fine. So I will list Pros and Cons of both devices in my view below so you guys can help me decide what to go for.

                                    HTC One Pros: is really good at design in term of build quality and material choice and I like how the speaks are made in front with stereo sound.
                                    HTC Cons: Yes Ultra Pixel provide good image with low light but when zoom to 100%, the picture look not sharp at all. I feel like I am using old day camera. This is really a deal breaker.

                                    S4 Pros: does come with good round premium finish, I like how they done with it. The design of the phone I think is an improvement of S3. 13MP camera mean the picture will be sharper and crisper when I zoom in. Tons of features, even though none of us will use them all but still nice to have extra
                                    S4 Cons: I just don't like the fact that it is made by plastic

                                    What do I use my phone for?
                                    - Watching movie & tv show everyday. I prefer to watch on phone more than on TV
                                    - Occasionally taking picture and record family video when I go out
                                    - Playing game sometime
                                    - Surf web when I am not near my PC

                                    What do I need from my phone?
                                    - Nice looking device
                                    - High end ofc
                                    - Update
                                    - Customer suppor

                                      But yeah, it doesn't really matter because this processor is second best on the market (after the one in the I9500). If you can't get the I9500, this phone will still be hands down the best.

                                        It's based on A15's core performance. We saw the dual core A15 in the Nexus 10. This phone is basically the same thing but double the cores and newer. The cool thing is the dual core A15 outperformed quad core Krait clock for clock. This version packs a quad core Krait but higher clocked and updated Krait core architecture. It's still not going to be as fast as the quad core A15 but definitely it should be almost spitting distance from it. I don't think the performance difference will be bigger than 20-35%.
