Htc one (m7) or SG IV? - General Topics

Hey guys upon waiting on the release dates of these 2 phones here in the US, which is going to be better in your opinions? I can't decide which phone I want to get since there both sounding nice, I'm currently on S2 and I've got to say this phone never gets old, please give me your opinion of the mentioned phones as I would like some help deciding lol, thanks!

Definitely a wait for sg4. Atleast till its unveiling and i bet u will go for a s4.
Samsung updates its devices and will not leave u helpless after selling u the phone. This is what we pay them for.

Looks: HTC One
Speakers (Audio): HTC One
Everything else: Galaxy S IV
The Verge reviewed the HTC One and said it has a mediocre camera (they have test shots), mediocre battery life (and no removable battery), and not much going for it aside from its look and feel.
And no, a 4 MP "Ultrapixel" camera is still a 4 MP camera. It doesn't magically multiply the pixels. All it results in is better lighting because it can process 3 times more light than a normal camera. They would have been better off even putting a "Normal-Pixel" 5 MP camera.

While that is probably a quite accurate comparison, its still based on rumour and speculation. And the differences in spec as you look down the page are mostly negligible.
Its going to be a split room based on personal requirements, and its only going to be things like build quality/battery/sd slot/onboard software etc. which will push most people one way or another.
I'm going to wait for the SGSIV release with an open mind... work with some real facts and figures, and get some hands-on when they are both in the shops together.

Is the more important aspect of your phone. In this regard, samsung has always beaten htc and i believe it will continue to do so...

Rooting always depends on the device developers.
If there are good developers,
They create one click root,
If they are average they create root access in patched which makes it tough to root.
Sry no offence to developrs.

See the facts samsung let my note taste 3 major android flavors. I am satisfied with their software update thing.
2. Their phone quality looks cheap maybe coz i didnt feel it that way but their phones are durable. I never heard anyone cracking the plastic. Unless its a major accident.
3. Their phones outperform and have too much development.
4. Futuristic hardware and removable battery.
5. All other oems even google cheat once they sell their product and when it comes to repair. Most even dont have service centers.
6. Plenty of storage due to expandable cards. Other oem force u to use their cloud service. Plus on the go usb makes it way too better.
7. Oleds are way better than lcds which are just brighter and battery eaters.
8. No overheating and plastic has a role in it.
9. Good camera and built in editor
10. Spen if ur a note user..

Returned iphone 4s...now between htc 1s and galaxy s2? cant decide.

Ok so i returned the iphone 4s that i bought for my girl cause you guys brought it to my attention that i will not get 4g on simple mobile. Now we are at a stand still in deciding between the galaxy s2 and the htc 1s. What do you guys think the better phone is? These will be tmobile phones running on simple mobile by the way. Thanks.
Or do you think we should get the galaxy s3?
I have the lg g2x right now which is rooted/unlocked/running hellfire 2.2.

Yep. I agree that was probably uncalled for. Sorry to thekid1. A better answer may be to wait until the new Samsung is released and for the old model to drop in price. Thekid1 has asked about things before that are easy to research.
I would never ask an internet forum how I should spend my hard earned money, but that is me. I wish all my clients would ask me to how to spend their money.
Like someone said before if you want to get updates get a Nexus and don't waste your money on any other android phone. I'm done with non Nexus devices I'm tired of the lack of suppose all the manufactures have for phones. You won't get much suppose from Samsung been there with the Vibrant they will release a very slightly revised S3 3 months later and forget you exist. No thanks.

Just get the One S. It is insanely fast and is built really well. I love it for a couple key reasons:
1. It has the new snapdragon S4 which is based off the newer smaller A15 architecture rather than the A9 which is in the Gs3 and almost all other phones right now. The A15 is more powerful and uses less energy.
2. It has a smaller 4.2" screen which in my opinion is the biggest a screen should be.
3. Build quality is really good and feels good in my hand.
That is my grain of salt for consideration.

[SUGGEST] Buying my first Android!

Hello everybody,
I will buying my first android very soon and my budget is of INR 25,000 = 451.811 USD = 358.611 EUR
The prices are to be considered for unlocked devices.
Requirements:-
I would prefer ICS on it. It won't matter wether it comes preloaded or an update would be available afterwards.
It should have a front facing camera as now it is a requirement for me.
If possible suggest dual core smartphones.
The back camera should be minimum of 5 Mega-pixel with flash.
I would also prefer such phones which have developer community support.
It is preferable to have phones of Sony, HTC or Samsung as I don't trust other companies much.
My List:-
Sony Xperia P
I have heard it is a good phone but it's battery life may be shorter & I have also heard that due to the new white pixel techonlogy of Sony battery life is not a big problem as it consumes less power.
HTC Sensation
It is great phone but it was released last year and I have heard so may issues relating to it such as Death grip, unresponsive touch screen, poor battery life, improper viewing angles.
Suggestions are welcome but please see to it that it meets my list of requirements.
Get a Samsung Galaxy S3.

Sorry mate.
Post updated. Actually I use currency converter plugin that caused the problem while posting.
If that's the Indian rupee, $448 can get you a SGS3 if only it were available in India.. there's always buying it somewhere online and having it shipped to your country as an option.
If not, there's the Galaxy Nexus that I would recommend second.
I'd never recommend an HTC, due to in part that sense is nonsense. What's the point of going to a dev community with a sense phone if the #1 motif will be REMOVING Sense? Lol. I'd avoid HTC altogether. The beats by dre sound is a joke, just overpowered bass. Get Samsung, then combine it with voodoo sound.
Don't make the mistake of getting an SGSII though.

What about the HTC One like was suggested? From everything I've read it looks amazing (great screen, great camera). Then again, idk of that falls into the price range either.

Hey my upgrade deal is coming up from T-Mobile and my question is, is the extra price worth it for an HTC one s vs the gs2? I've looked at reviews and stuff but I need some xda insight. I'm leaning towards the one s but the damn price difference is where the decision lies.

I've stopped trolling and I don't think the gs4g phone is worth it anymore. I'm happy that devs are still working on it but I think I need to move on instead of begging for a new update. I've almost forgotten there are other options out there.
I don't know if it's still like this but my first android phone was a mytouch 3g slide. HTC made it and that phone was the biggest pain in the butt to get rooted due to the locked boot loader. I got the s2 and have been very happy with it.

The HTC one s has been majorly upgraded it runs ics and sense 4 ( sense 4 is infinitely better than touchwiz if for no other reason the fact that touchwiz5 can be flashed as a zip onto the one s) with no worries to the one s out of the box so you get best of both worlds) has an awesome 4.3 in 900 by 560 screen res but easily a one handed device due to the thin design. Has an amazing camera a great dual core 1.5 MHz thingy ma bob (not the most tech specific term) and i could definately see the smoothness was comparable to the one x's and the gs3 but it has no expandable memory or access to battery. Oh and a HUUUUGGGE plus is that the one s has an alpha cm10 build already. So pretty much the s one is better than the s2 in every thing except for storage, price, and nfc. Seems like a no brainer right! Its just that with a 2 yr contract the one s is $150 vs the gs2's wapping 0 dollars. I could wait for the price to drop but it was at 50$ back in April when I couldn't upgrade so I doubt the price will drop that much. I feel like this post may have answered by own question lol.

For me the deciding factor would be the development community. Which one is strong and friendly.
SGS III by far.
The best phone humanity has today, with an external micro SD card slot, unique Sammy features and beasty specs.
I would get the galaxy s 2 (or 3 but you didn't mention it). HTC one s has a **** ton of hardware issues that even HTC has admitted

Honestly I didn't know what the big deal was when I was on this forum before I got this phone with jelly bean. And now having used it for a couple weeks I really still don't see the big deal with it. It's nice don't get me wrong but it's not leaps and bounds better than ics like gb was to ics.
All in all I'm happy with the phone. Dual core is awesome, the gig of ram also helps allot. love the bigger screen. And with the 16g internal and the 16g sd card I had from my sgs4g I don't think I will be worrying about storage problems for awhile lol

Yeah what's really important is storage I guess the s3 and maxx both have external storage and the dna and Iphone doesn't and the dna isn't sixteen gigs straight out the box

Well, you say that the SGS3 will soon be outdated but in all honesty do you really care about the newer hardware? The only real changes which will be made soon are 1080p screens and better processors. You will never see the difference between 1080p and 720p screens unless you're specifically comparing them side by side to see purely the sharpness of the screen, and I have yet to find an app that I regularly use that even the SGS2 can't handle with ease, so I doubt you'll find one for the SGS3. It takes heavy games in its stride too, since many devs optimise their apps for the SGS3's chipset (in a similar way that you see Tegra3 optimised games).
Having said this, the SGS3 also has a lot that other phones don't:
-There are various storage options and more importantly expandable storage
-Being so popular means that it has a huge variety of accessories (almost iPhone-like in that respect)
-It has a removable battery which means that you can fit an extended battery if you wish
-It has a menu button so you don't get the three dots softkey like you do on HTCs
-TouchWiz (whilst ugly) has some amazing features
-It still has one of the best smartphone cameras currently available
-The development community is huge
-It has a variety of colour options
Samsung galaxy s3.
I think I'm leaning towards the s3 or sucking it up and waiting for the s4 the storage for the dna is a huge deal breaker

Stay with N4 or get GS4 / HTC ONE?

What's your thoughts on these 2? Should I stay with my N4 or go with one of them... Are they better than the N4?

Are you tied to a contract at all with your N4? The specs appear to be better on the newer phones, but you must hold strong and stay away from hype and read some good Vs. reviews. Personally I'd hold on another year to the N4 (quality, solid, well supported device) and see what next year has to offer.

That's a personal choice nobody here can rely help you as some prefer one, the other or the 3rd. We all have different views. Go watch some reviews or go in store to compared them if you can.

I understand on personal choice but coming from iPhone I don't know to much on the background of each device... On a general opinion which device has better performance base on previous devices... That's all I'm asking... I though I have the best android but honestly my wife's GS3 looks faster and better battery than mine... But I don't like the look and color options... The new HTC looks nice but I have friends that said the previous device are bad...

I used HTC One V, X and S for a certain period of time. They all worked without any problems, except for One V, that one was feeling a bit laggy, but it's the first device in the HTC One line and has only 512mb of RAM. Anyway, I would go for the HTC One
Stay
Nexus for is a good phone! I wpuld suggest you to wait to the end of this year (or maybe little more).

I understand but what might be a better performer for me may be different for someone else and previous devices don't matter, now is what matters. All the reviews online will help you more, trust me. And the nexus 4, HTC One and galaxy s 4 are all fast phones so it won't even matter. What matters is if you like stock android, if you like sense or touchwiz, if you're ok with a plastic phone or if you need a premium looking phone, if you need the best performer in the camera... there are so many factors here and again we all have different opinions, even some of us are having a hard time choosing but if speed is what you're looking for than the nexus 4 is very fast I can tell you that now.
