Another week passes by and the HTC One (global) held down the #1 position on the Official Smartphone Rankings. With competition on the way and we are excited to see what type of movement we may see on the charts.
"This One could have been better..." By ZACHARY KLEIN on April 2, 2013
First, let me say I've been an HTC faithful for years, but this One is letting me down so far.. So much hype surrounding a phone that clearly hasn't earned it... I wish it had a slightly bigger screen that wasn't so narrow, somewhere between where it is now and the Note 2.... Great construction quality but be careful, if it falls out of your pocket the aluminum frame comes apart and the phone damages very easy! While the Ultrapixel camera is a great concept, it simply doesn't measure up (overall) to the Lumia or even the Samsung in low light or outside when it comes to detail... If you want a phone that looks cool and feels nice to hold, and want a feature like Blinkfeed, jump at this One... Otherwise, there are plenty of other options coming in the next few months that may be worth waiting for...
