The epic dogfight battle between the HTC One  and Samsung Galaxy Note II  continues!  It's a battle between design, software, camera, battery, and more - and Aaron's throwing both in the ring to see which one comes out on top.

The HTC  One sports a 1.7 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 600 CPU, 4.7-inch 1080p HD display, 4-ultrapixel camera (more on that in the video) with HTC Zoe, 2 GB of RAM, 32/64 GB of storage, 2,300 mAh battery, and Android 4.1 Jelly Bean with HTC Sense 5, which features BlinkFeed and some other UI improvements.  The Samsung Galaxy Note II rocks a 1.6 GHz quad-core Exynos CPU, 2 GB of RAM, a 5.5-inch Super AMOLED HD (720p) display, 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD recording, 3,100 mAh battery, and Android  4.1 Jelly Bean with TouchWiz.

This could be the most challenging dogfight in PhoneDog history.  Part 2 of 2.

Both T-mobile stores and Sprint stores that told me they would have the S4 in store today fronted.

"Back order this, warehouse that .. "

 

[stay lurkin]

I think I would get the S4 over the one for the camera and split view feature though. That camera is tough

 

[tonyljeff]

wife just picked up the s4....i have the note 2 btw...

 

[championboyz7]

Can you post a pic of it side by side?
I saw some online it looks like a small note 2 imo. Idk

 

[durantula]

Just copped the S4, switching over form the iphone 3gs, gonna take a while to get used to, lol.

[COLOR=#red]True story...I remember when I was "stuntin" with my Palm Treo 650 (2005) and I had to go to the AT&T store for some reason I forgot...ANYWAY I was telling the rep that you could put pr0n on the Treo and for some reason this dude didn't believe me. So I showed him a scene with Nautica Binx and dude was like "WOW how you do that homie?" I was like all you do is drag and drop pr0n scenes from your comp onto the SD card then put it in your Treo then go to the movie player. Of course these days that's common knowledge, but back in the infancy of smartphones that was avant garde. Portable p0rn FTW!!![/COLOR]

I think my first foray into mobile porn was with the AT&T 8525/HTC TyTN back in 2007. I thought they'd never make better phones than that run of Pocket PCs. Nobody was crying about the 64MB of internal storage either. Windows Mobile was godly 6 years ago and HTC was running the smart phone game. They've only had 2-3 highly regarded phones since that era smh.

Whoa talk about leaps and bounds! Damn that's a huge leap. Good luck with your first Android tour. I ran back to iOS after I used the EVO for 6 months but I've been thinking about giving it another shot here lately with the HTC One.

 

[mez 0ne]

got my S4 yesterday from preorder, love it.

 

[droseph]

Anyone know where I can find an all metal case for the Nexus 4 similar to the HunterF metal case for the SGS3?

I found this: http://www.casefanatic.com/lg/lg-ne...mmandant-ulta-thin-aluminium-metal-e960-case/
but I wanted it in solid silver without the text on the back, or even better, if I can get it in army/olive green

 

[milestailsprowe]

Played with the S4 at work today. The Screen beats the HTC one imo but the feel of the one is much better

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Played with the S4 today feels like a more compact S3 with a bigger and better screen .

 

[thadocta]

did u use the s4 screen outside?


elderwatson i still have ot buried somewhere in my closet

 

[toru okada]

htc one screen is clearer and has more natural colors

viewing angles even under sunlight are awesome

s4 on the other hand is super amoled so if you prefer the fake and vibrant colors you will like the screen

sharpness is really good, just not as good as the htc one

personally i like the htc one screen more

 

[milestailsprowe]

Nope inside of the backroom

 

[thadocta]

no offense but phones get used outdoors so without testing outdoors u cant make a complete comparison between the two

 

[tekthemaestro]

on paper the one has a better screen. that doesnt matter, the difference between their pixel count wont be detectable by naked eye. all thats gonna matter is do u like 5 inch or the 4.8? as for who asked about a side by side of the s4 and the note 2...have u seen an s3? well now u know what the 4 looks like.

I know but you gotta remember I was opening a phone that is gonna be sold to the public. Plus there are other things to do. I can take them out with me on lunch aslong as they come back clean but was to busy. Some lady with bad credit took 2 hours of 5 hour work day

You're completely right, 1080p eliminated the RGB/Pentile debate, so, it comes down to whether you like AMOLED or LCD.

 

[waitwut]

im kinda sad i missed out on the 1080p leap that new phones are getting

still love my N4 though

colors on LCD > colors on amolded

Be like me and just wait till the Nexus 5. I'm sure it will have a 1080p screen

yea i understand.

today i was using my one and my little cuzin comes up and trys to grab my phone knocking it down and it falls right on top of the screen :[ luckily the screen didnt break although i thought it did because he hit the phone downward but theres still a couple small scratches on the 2 corners

what a coincidence that you said that. i didnt get the One yet, but im already looking for cases. found this company incipio whos got a great reputation. And im thinking this carbon fiber 2stage case they have is what i need. what do u guys think? http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...es/htc-one-cases/htc-one-dualpro-cf-case.html
