    Better quality components in the HTC One? I'd disagree perhaps a better built phone is a better way of putting it as in most hardware comparisons the S4 is ahead.

    I've noticed that the HTC One is getting some serious ad time now too

    The quality of the components does not indicate that they perform better...

    I hope they continue to offer phones with the stock Android experience, I quite like my Nexus 7.

    I was looking forward to these but then read that although they will be stock it`ll still be up to Samsung and HTC to actually release the stock firmware so there is no guarantee they`ll get the same level of support nexus devices get

    Supposedly the HTC One will be released fairly soon on WP8. If so I'd imagine that will be my next upgrade...

    Never said it did but the graphics core is clocker higher, so is the cpu and it has a higher capacity battery on the S4

    Re: News - Google Play Editions of Galaxy S4 and HTC One go on sale online

    I just got myself an HTC One, I had the S3 and looked at the S4, the S4 may have a very slight edge in components but with that plastic case it still feels cheap, the HTC actually feels expensive with its metal outter case.

    Its slick, its smooth and the screen is sharp enough to give you a shave, I was terrified that I was going to miss my Iphone 4s but I havent looked back

    I hope HTC get some rewards for this as it really is a stunning bit of kit

    Now if only HTC would allow me to switch from Sense 5 to stock without voiding my warranty.

    That would be swell.

    There's no guarantee that we will get them at all.
