So the low camera yield rate is reason of the delay. Poor HTC. The company could have achieved astronomical sales volume with this new ONE. Maybe they should plan ahead next time by raking in more subcontractors for camera modules?

4.7inch looks so small on your hand... LOL

For some reason i don't know why, no matter how great HTC are, like this ONE for example, still many of smartphone users out there still doesn't really accept the brand... Sigh. This is sad news too.... maybe, it's TOO MANY of Sammy and Fruit users out there. With their word of mouth, enough to destroy HTC hardwork. But for people who still considering which phone is better, IMHO, this is the ONE. IT's worth to wait for...

This is truly a BEAST produced by HTC...  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

Optimal product entrance is 2 - 4 weeks after announce/unveiled to public.

Agree with you. Should strike it while it's still hot

By no means a photographer. But I believe you do need a certain mp to maintain image sharpness, no?

like i said, nobody views their photos at 100% zoom, nor 200%.
they just snap , upload to instagram or facebook.

if you're gonna bring photography enthusiasts / professionals into the picture, they have their dslr for that job.
zooming at 100% is only an excuse to say that 4mp is bad compared to 8mp.
*
So displaying those pics on big hi-res monitor or tv screen will show no difference at all to naked eyes? If so, then HTC did the right thing. So increasing the mp on cameraphone is basically useless?

no no.. main factor for sharpness is the quality of the lens... High megapixel = bigger size picture.. it could be a soft large size picture.. but it doesnt contribute to sharpness...here the lens plays a significant role.
*
Haha. Understood. So next time must know what lens they are using.

people want the best out of everything on their phone because they do not like to carry extra weight around .. eg : battery packs, handheld camera, mp3 players, etc..

woos o many discussion after i went to lunch.

btw for brogiovanni dun worry on MP. 4MP is good enough smile.gif

Higher MP will result higher res for printing, but in d sametime introduce alot noise too which reduce sharpness (also depend the imaging processing how heavy they reduce the noise).

Unless u r talking bout higher sensor size which already proven in Nikon D800/D800E. Still dislike high megapixel. Camera 10-16mp good enuf for me.
*
Sure sure. I understand now. last time really stupid. Thought higher MP higher sharpness. Learn something new today.

I just buy whichever phone that pleases me. I normally jump between different platforms when I see 'something' that I want in a new device. I don't confine myself to a brand.

Assuming you know who is Lord Denning. You should live up more to his name smile.gif

Do some research online on the toughness of the HTC ONE's build quality. Most if not all reviewers who complained about the iphone 5's aluminium being scratched easily were also worried about the same issue when they received the HTC ONE. They however, have found that the HTC ONE is much much more resistant to scratches and scuffs as compared to the iphone 5. One reviewer even went to the extent of banging his test unit on the table the moment he unboxed his HTC ONE. The result was that it looks and sounds solid.

The chamfered edges on the iphone 5 was also an issue. But again, most reviewers if not all, have mentioned that the chamfered edges on the HTC ONE looks and feels to be of a more robust design and construct.

So there you have it smile.gif

btw - I know how fragile the iphone 5 is. My friend was so excited about her iphone 5 but it...... BENT within 2 weeks of usage. She complained and got a new replacement unit, and is currently happy about her iphone 5 smile.gif

Bro, don't poison me any further. i thought of using the scuff-prone aluminium issue and the late availability issue to justify my possible purchase of S4. Now you sway me back again to ONE. I will be sleepless tonight thinking about it rclxub.gif

then that would be a pretty bad justification of why you should not buy the One. because a lot people are giving it a good thumbs up in terms of the build quality of the Htc One. and you're not the only one. I too am having a hard time of thinking whether to get the s4 or one. But one thing is for sure, I will wait for more reviews and would most likely not purchase it on the first day it's launched like what I used to do.
*
Yeah I know. I want either of them badly. I love the premium feel of ONE but I also love the innards of S4. Maybe HTC and Samsung should merge to form SamTC and design a phone together. JK!
