Been using the Z and the iPhone 5. Use the Z like my handheld computer. Use my iPhone to take calls.
The Z is a good phone, specs are a bit out-dated but to be honest, s4pro is enough for a smartphone. HTC one is a nice phone though, but just not too much of a fan on the HTC brand.

HTC used to be hit or miss a couple years ago, but ever since they started the HTC One series, their phones are amazing.
I have an HTC One S, and I'm very happy with it. I think the HTC One will destroy the S4 because its design and build quality is so much better.

Leaning toward the HTC One now (perhaps maybe the Xperia Z too). Honestly I liked the iphone for simplicity and ease of use. However, I feel that Apple is getting cocky and thus doesn't care to innovate all that much anymore. That's something I don't want to support. Innovations provide for healthy competition so unless Apple changes its tune, I'm going to have to jump ship.

Consumers want choices and a black or white iPhone with yesterday's technology, a small screen, and a closed OS will lose the war. It's already happening. Want to buy some AAPL at $425? They will innovate again but it needs to happen soon. An iPhone 5s puts them further behind. Samsung is releasing a note 3 with a 5.8 or 6.3 inch screen? Ridiculous? Maybe...but I want it. |

Even Samsung is copying Apple's model of a minor upgrade instead of a full blown new model. Look at the S4, its basically an S3s, exact same design. And if you haven't heard Apple is coming out with different models, lower end model, current, and a larger screen. You talk about how iOS is boring, but the majority of phone owners don't mod their phones. They like it because its User friendly and easy to navigate. If people want to tweak stuff, they can easily jailbreak the devices. You didn't answer my question. Can you name some notable changes from Ice cream Sandwich to Jelly bean besides project butter which should've been implemented in Gingerbread? Again for the OP, go for the HTC One. |

I have the Note 2. It is hands down the best phone I have every owned. It is a beast. After handling it for a while though, you get used to the large screen and any smaller phone just feels like a kid's toy...

I've been considering all three of these phones as well, but have decided to hold off for now as I have the latest version of Jelly Bean running on my old original Galaxy S which has breathed new life into it. I do think one downside of the HTC One is the lack of a SD card slot.
I also find it amusing though that some people are saying they would not even consider these three phones, seeing that they are the current top of the line phones spec and feature wise. The HTC One even uses an aluminum unibody, so one can't complain about a cheap feel with that phone. Unless someone is so deeply entrenched in the Apple ecosystem, I don't see why they would not take a look at these phones.

If an iPhone 5 ran the same cydia tweak, it would be faster than your iPhone 4. Get it? |
