    The pure Android stock experience are so much better and smoother than the custom OS and UI. Both are good but i think if you want the best device with stock Android.. Buy a Nexus.

      The HTC one is hands down the best phone I have ever owned or used and I highly recommend it. I get asked all the time what phone am I using and people are in awe over the device when I show them. I get it on: #amzn.to/1eQ34Xv

      osamaFXX moto phones are awesome. because it's stock Android with a few moto apps. plus you get an FM radio. I don't use it that much but it's there and it's free

    I've been waiting for this! As far as I can tell you're the first person to put the Google editions of these phones head to head instead of just comparing the OEM version to the Google edition of the same phone. Thank you!

      @jsplinc2000 ปีที่แล้ว

      But i just realised that what the google play editions of HTC one & GS4. but what i like more is the og stock Samsung GS4 & GS5 launcher & better than the Nova launcher ngl

    You can still download Samsung WatchOn on the Google play edition, just search it in the play store and all the GS4 apps will be there

    HTC One is actually cheap quality, if you head on over to AndroidAuthority's drop test for the HTC One, the speaker grill is plastic and popped right off during the drop revealing a bunch of glue behind it.

    S4 play edition better than htc one play edition, htc one stock better than s4 stock

  • @FlintG
    @FlintG 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is why I like apple better. They don't poop out phones every few months like samsung does. Like when you buy a s4 a few months later it will be already outdated and your stuck with it for 2 years.

    Why didn't you review the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, 8.0 and 10.1? Maybe because you hate Samsung tablet series so much?

  • @gettshafi
    @gettshafi 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I really envy you peeled the plastic off from HTC One... I want to do that right now :) Great video over all but I have one question... I have heard some manufacturing issues with HTC. Can you help me with some research on this ? I think what I have read on internet is nothing but an attempt to degrade HTC... Your one line reply would be really appreciated.. Also, I am in India so I don't know if that makes any difference.

  • @CasualRican
    @CasualRican 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope your not tax writing off all these new Tech, new Law is coming out for people on Internet reviewing products and keeping the Items , trust me my friend on TH-cam got a 26,000 dollars tax fine for over 59 things he wrote off to keep and wasn't sponsored by the company, just wanted to let you no mate , it's just better to buy it from a store that will display it , so you can open it first review it on your channel and then give it back with paper work saying you did , okay man good luck

    AAHHA you make me laugh so hard, Apple is the most intelligent smartphone, computer, tablet, ipod, laptop company ever created known to man, Android users are also blind the iOS 7 design is very beautiful and fantastic. Stop arguing ANDROID FANBOY cant admit that iOS 7 is better than Android (4.2.2).

  • @widg3tswidgets416
    @widg3tswidgets416 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    why do people ever buy a white phone? its so easy to see blemishes, scratches, dirt, and imperfections....not to mention the fact that it never, ever, ever matches any case / cases you'll want...and you'll want cases to protect a white phone. lastly, they're ugly! show us the darker ones!

  • @TheSterlingArcher16
    @TheSterlingArcher16 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow, Samsung has ripped off apple so much on the packaging of their products. The box is the same, the way everything is wrapped up and sorted is the same, and the headphones look the same...some people love Samsung but you can't deny that they borrow heavily from apple

  • @charbel4030
    @charbel4030 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    More people use iOS more than Android its a fact, go research it! Android and Apple have said this many times in their presentations that iOS have more people using it than Android (Android - shittest operating system ever created known to man)

  • @pattycarljackson
    @pattycarljackson 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    i'm not a fan of how to htc one feel the same goes for the iphone the metal is nice but to me it just doesn't feel good in the hand the edges need to be more rounded and wgen sitting it on a table and using it it doesn't lay flat which i also hate.

  • @Gorgon192
    @Gorgon192 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    At least with companies like HTC and Samsung and Sony try to make their devices a different experience to what most of are used to. Whether those experiences are good or not ("cough" samsung) is up to the consumer.

  • @gotetrunks
    @gotetrunks 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Both the phone have stock android but both WILL NOT BE DIRECTLY UPDATED BY GOOGLE! Htc and samsung will update the phones. Don't expect to have the latest version of android the day one the nexus will have it.

  • @avicohen8876
    @avicohen8876 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    In the video the gs4 Google edition was so much brighter with a whiter display opposed to the HTC one which had a yellower tint. But yet you still day that the HTC ones display is better. Wtf

  • @wwyk1993
    @wwyk1993 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Google Play Editions phones are sold via the Google Play Store (like the Nexus devices currently are), but will have software updates delivered by the OEMs, rather than Google.

    here's a really good idea when you review a new phone, use it to watch one of your videos then on your next video use the previous video over and over again if you know what i mean

  • @bensbreaks
    @bensbreaks 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    these two phones also came out about a half year later than the iPhone O.o so yes, they did copy a lot of things from the iPhone: Stainless Steel Band, aluminum backing, etc.

  • @JonisJen123
    @JonisJen123 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can't choose which one but I've had all galaxy s devices so far so I'll make change and get the one. Although I would want a menu button and a micro SD card slot.

  • @beerman1957
    @beerman1957 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the HTC looks better and the Samsung has more power. I would pick HTC just by looks. The Samsung sure looks cheap yet costs nearly as much as the HTC.
