good stuff
Dude, pinoy ka? Nice review.
nokia Is Better <3
The resolution of the Nokia is really 768×1280
nice review… Ive got the 928, I love it… came from an s2… do still have a soft spot for the One tho…on verison..
nokia for the win =)
ON the Verizon website the HTC isn't that expensive with the 2 year contract or Verizon edge
I'm an Android user and have the One. I just bought a used 928 to see if I can convert. Not at all impressed with the HTC One camera or its battery life. If I can survive without the app selection and less customization with the 928 I'll buy the 929 which will have a 5" screen and 20 mp camera with Pureview technology. Camera and battery life are my top needs so the Lumia lineup looks promising.
Nokia is cheaper then HTC. Nokia has got Here City Lens and offline maps.
Unfortunately nokia was demise soon
Oh yeah its a no brainer to go with the htc one. Gotta love those speakers and built quality.
Hi Josh, with all the phones you have tested, what would be your choice of phone for personal use?
There are tons of games for free…you can even try the paid ones before you buy…the app store is not as big as either apple or android, but its getting there. It happens with any new platform.
Unfortunately HTC is wont be around much longer.
Well i was with WP for 1 year, tell me 5 good games and apps which are free ? Everything in WP is payable, thats the main reason i dont like them
Well, obviously you've never tried Windows Phone.
Why do you even compare them ? WP sucks….
But what is your point?
Windows phone – instant No no
tired of hearing about all the "apps" how many of the same apps are out there? i.e. calculator apps and such…besides google is allowed to spy on you.
The One let's you play media for longer periods? Yeah, I call bullshit. That quad core processor and android OS are not battery friendly. The Nokia has better battery life regardless of how you use it.
Just because the htc one does not mean the nokia sucks
windows phone are not hacked because of no one care WP.
Nokia sucks!!!
WP8 is in no way open source like android. I'm talking about the average consumer here, not programmers.
Windows Phone 8 gives programmers access to all of the hardware and more through their APIs. If you really want to change the look or design you can just do what the open source Android users do and root their phones, or iPhone user's jailbreak their phones. =)
Not taking sides, but to clear things up. Window's app store is still very new. It's growing so please give it some time. =) The reason Android has most of the market share is that Android is really cheap; free infact. Any handset makers can put it on their phone for free or cheap, and sell it giving many people an opportunity to buy a cheap smart phone.
You are talking about how powerful an OS is while everything in WP8 is locked down…..
You idiots can't spell for shit. They didn't teach you anything in your sped classes?
Actually android only has little lag mostly on touchwiz in the widget drawer. The htc one has none, every review I have seen has mentioned how it never or rarely ever did, windows phone never lags because it's a very easy os to run, all you have are tiles and a app menu, nothing more,also the windows app store is very bad, comparing to android's or apples it fails massively, not having many many good apps, oh and which platform has around 75-80% of the phone market?.
dat grammar, and sure you can run a virtual machine android on pc but is is low as fuck, and that's only on pc, not windows phone. on the other hand android on mobile phones does not lag unless you have some shitty 100 dollar phone, my nexus 4 is smooth as butter.
agreed, but next time please check your spellings…
EITHER!!!
This review failed to mention the video cameras. The HTC One can record in true HD, and can be hooked up to a TV via special HDMI cable.. The Lumia 928 is packing that sexy PureView camera with motion stabilization that had everyone talking. That'd be a great comparison!
Mirror's Edge 2!
I have a HTC one boss ads phone no problems whatsoever also I have never had a more responsive phone best phone on the market hands down
