I have been using this phone for a few months now. In the past, i have used Android (Samsung Note), Symbian(Nokia E6) etc..
.a few points noticed..
Cons:
1. Battery life sucks- if used for browsing etc, it hardly lasts 6-7 hours...
2. lack of apps - Seriously, buying the flagship device and waiting months for apps? what is the purpose? by the time apps come on WP8, this device will be old
3. Daylight camera - .. its a big letdown...
4. Gets HOT when used for browsing or using Nokia drive..I noticed when using nokia drive, it became so hot that it was uncomfortable to hold..
Pros:
1. beautiful screen
2. Awesome build quality
3. Night photography - NONE other phone can beat it..
4. Apps (which ever are available) have very nice UI..(esp LinkedIn etc)..
5. Nokia drive - Rocks..Way better than google maps..(although i use WAZE and i am waiting for it to release in WP8)

Planning to try Apple Iphone5..
No lag, great screen. Note taking with the stylus is priceless. Battery lasts all day with heavy use. Wish more apps could use the multi screen.
iPhone 5 now a days is not the best smartphone in the world, first of all is very fragile, so you need to be very carfully because if it falls to the flloor it can be breaked easily. Second is that the battery can't be removed and you can't expand the memory. The battery is not very good, it just works for a day. The call quality is very good, the iPhone have 2 microfons, 2 for the call and the other for reduce the back noise. The display is not full HD (1136 x 640). The things look really good but for me a little bit small. And the apps is the largest maket in the world, but sometimes the same app in android is free. Camera is 8 Mp. in front of the 13 of all the oponents.Is one of the fluids phones in the market.
Is a really good phone but in my opinion overpriced and overloved, now a days there are a lot of better phones...
The phone is amazing, the screen clear black is gorgeous, it feels comfortable in the hand, not too big. The buid quality is the best of the smartphones of the market, is really resistent, practicly unbreakable (is a nokia, we do not spect less). It runs Windows Phone that flyes with the dualcore processor, the OS is very simply, but more personalitzable than iOS of course, integrates really well the social networks. It's really responsive and fluid. The unique problem that i see are the apps. Widows phone have 1/6 apps than iOS and android, and some apps that are quick in these others OS in WinPhone can go slow (like draw free).
been with them for 10 years. They are great! I had one problem with their connectivity quality and it was resolved loading a new PPL. I have an inexpensive plan, get coverage all over the USA, while people are spending 100s my bill is about $58, $6 of that is text messaging which I don't use all the much and $7 in taxes. They always answer the phone and solve my problem. NOT looking forward to being forced to go to SPRINT.
Since I first handled it, I've been in love with it. It's unique.
i love the look and the build quality i love the sense 5 and the ultra pixel.
I bought the HTC ONE on the 19th for sprint. I had the evo 4g lte before it and the evo 4g before that and I must say I love my HTC phones. I did about two months research before making my decision. I was already sold on the HTC because I'm brand loyal... Especially a brand that puts out a impeccable device. The screen is absolutely amazing. I show my friends with iPhones and Samsung's and they can't compare. Build quality is very important. In this case HTC hit it right on with the all aluminum body. It looks amazing and feels like it's a much more expensive device. HTC sense 5.0 is an awesome add to the phone. I had my doubts about blinkfeed but no more doubts, it it the best user interface I've ever used. Think of it like cars...whereas the Samsung is a Nissan and the HTC is a Mercedes. Plastic vs light weight metal. The same old design vs innovation. Basic or luxury. There is simply too much to list that HTC has Incorporated into this beautiful device. My advice... Get the HTC ONE... Better look and feel and more to offer then samesung (intentional misspelling)
With a stylish and unique aluminum design, excellent HD display with brilliant and vibrant colors, awesome Boomsound and cool new features, the HTC One is a must have. The new Blinkfeed is your headline news update and Zoe brings your gallery into life. Pictures are of an excellent quality, macros and night shots are at their best. Highly recommended!
This phone is the best phone EVER made.
It is built so well and looks so damn nice.
The screen is just amazing and the audio is fantastic.
Well done to HTC for bringing their A-Game to the table again.
I'm sorry Samsung & Apple but you will have to come up with something so very special and innovative to stand a chance of knocking the HTC ONE off the pedestal.
I got the phone as soon as it came out, retiring my Inspire 4G. What an upgrade! You think 32GB isn't enough? I have over 400 photos and over 200 songs and have barely put a dent in that memory. I also have apps that I USE and did not open just once and never touch again. 32GB is plenty for anyone. The battery life is perfectly fine. I can take it off charge early in the morning, listen to music, use social network sites, browse the internet, and just play around with it and still have 40% before I go to bed. I always catch myself turning it on just to look at the display or without any particular reason I'll find myself unlocking the phone.
If you're upgrading anytime soon or are browsing the market, you'd be crazy not to pick this phone up and give it a try.
I have found that the note 2 is one of the best phones out there , the battery life is incomparable , it's quick on all states of being , weather in an app on on the net ..... one beautiful phone !!!!!!!
Unbelievable sharp, unbelievable sound, unbelievable design ..Unbelievable
I loved this device but we dont have the option to buy them in Brazil, very sad :(
