      Out of curiosity, why hasn't the HTC One gained popularity? The hardware looks beautiful

        ^Doug - they had delays with the launch which didn't help but mainly I think people just don't look at HTC in a positive light.  So when it was S4 v. One people would go towards the S4.  I've heard stories of carrier employees pushing the Samsungs on people who were undecided.

          Interesting. When I was waiting for my 5s to be activated, I saw the One and thought if I were to go android, this was pretty nice

            Yeah I was just in the market for a new phone and liked the One a lot but stayed away from it as it was already sorta 1/2 way through its market life and I have a weird personal hangup about that and phones

              That's not that weird, I'm like that too.

              So I guess that makes two people…

                Three. It's only reasonable given how technology curves work to either try to head off the curve and maximize the length of time a device with be useful, or just always get the cheapest possible functional device that doesn't drive you crazy to use.

                Think it, be it.

                  Ok now my Blackberry (yep still the one with the cracked screen) won't recharge through USB… Time to buy something new... Maybe I'll just buy an external charger since I have two batteries...

                              The screens on phones that are a couple generations old now have nothing on current gen phones.  Blah blah blah tech is always advancing blah blah, but seriously the new gens screens are leaps and bounds easier to see, especially in full sun than previous gens.  I was using my nexus 5 and my buddy's s3 side by side and the difference was night and day.  But then again I've been playing Ingress hardcore outside lately and it makes a difference trying to see them screens in the sun.

                                Got the external charger… But my screen's still cracked... So I bought... a secondhand Storm 2, yes the SAME phone, for 30 quid...

                                One for spare parts...  😃

                                  To round off the discussion I prompted in Random Questions last week,I ended up switching my iPhone 4S for a 5S. I've had iPhones since the beginning and never been disappointed so far so it was the logical choice, plus I just find all the Android stuff so painfully bland and (with the exception of the HTC M8 and the new Sony) so cheap looking.

                                    Yeah that new HTC looks pretty nice… I'm sure my next phone 'll be an HTC btw... But in the meantime...

                                      Respect. Hope it lasts you a few good years, and then some!

                                      I was given an Android tablet (huawei honor x1 running 4.2.2) last week on the trip to China. A few days of playing with it and I'm more than ever happy with my iPhone. I tried to root-kit the thing to eradicate the Chinese characters throughout the thing but there's no root-kit for this tablet. Considering that's what I always hear as the strength of the android platform, it's kinda crappy being locked to a vendor's implementation of the OS.

                                        iPhone 4 here. Bought it for 45€ from my brother, I'd never pay over 500€ for a phone. Had a 30€ Nokia before the iPhone, had an LED flashlight in it, best phone ever 🙂

                                            I use an iphone 5s, started my experience with smartphones with iphone, decided to switch awhile back to android cause I heard such great things. It was a nightmarish 3 months before I bit the bullet snd went back to iphone been with them since the 4 now.. Although my pops got an s4 recently snd it does seem nice. Clunky, but nice
