so the galaxy s4 going up against the HTC one is HTC sweating do they have a reason to be nervous well we're going to compare them right now let's take a look the big difference between these two devices is choice of materials we've got metal on the HTC one we've got plastic on the galaxy s4 the galaxy s4 definitely feels thinner in the hand although what HTC does is kind of a trick here we've got a thinner edge which is thinner than this edge then it's a little bit thicker as it goes back but it feels very thin when you pick up the HTC One it's cold in your hand it's that metal construction that feels very unique and on the galaxy s4 it's kind of what you would expect with a galaxy s3 so it's really up to you to determine do you want a metal phone do you want a plastic phone once definitely lighter than the other with the galaxy s4 being lighter now we've got a larger screen here five inches on the galaxy s4 4.7 inches on the HTC One what I like about the galaxy s4 here so the bezels are just so thin we kind of have an Xperia ZL kind of big screen to facade ratio if that's an official term inside the galaxy s4 this version unconfirmed but what we think is the an octa-core processor with two gigabytes of RAM on the HTC One we've got the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core with two gigabytes of RAM let's turn these puppies on and see which looks better they are both at maximum screen brightness we give that character is characteristic that were really dark black here on the galaxy s4 but to be honest HTC one's keeping up really good really well that's not right keeping up very well with its LCD technology over the a moet something that the galaxy s4 has with the HTC does not have is a dynamic feature that allows the screen to adjust contrast in color based on what ever after in of course one of the big things that make these devices different is the camera we've got a 4 megapixel ultra pixel camera on the HTC One which claims to take in a lot for life interestingly Samsung didn't talk that much about the camera itself the 13 megapixel shooter on the galaxy s4 they were emphasizing or so all of the camera features all the ways that you can do things that kind of the HTC one introduced like a Zoe like feature that adds a little bit of sound too to a video and some other ways to capture images quickly just realize me power save on on the HTC One which dim the screen so now that we have it at true maximum screen brightness let's go into an application where there is white space so we can kind of take a look at the difference LCD gives you a brighter white but AMOLED gives you a darker black so it all kind of matters on what you're looking for in terms of screen quality and Samsung has that is a lot of auxiliary features like a smart stay variant called what's it called autos super smart stay super smart spec on something auto scroll something that will follow your eyes as you move down the page HTC one just doesn't do that so overall I think these devices are really going to go ahead and I think a lot of people were scared I think HTC was scared the galaxy s4 would blow it out of the water with the galaxy s4 but you know these are going to be very very strong contenders they're very different phones and I think that's why people will have a tough time deciding between them we're going to have a much more deeper comparison than this quick video coming up in the weeks ahead at pocket now just a look at the galaxy s4 vs the HTC One
