Good things come to those that work hard for it.

Loving my One now! Battery life so far is FREAKIN AWESOME. Feels much better than my Note II last time in terms of heavy usage duration!

Nice. Looks like you have a brand new awesome phone to enjoy over the weekend!

So far, heat is not a problem for me.

But I find that using the camera heats up the phone a lot and drains the battery too. Did you notice it?

Try not to play too loud.

Many HTC One speaker got overload blow-out problem.

No need.

But FYI, HTC One charge time is 'FAIL'.
Need at least 3-5 hours to charge.

Oh that's fast. Was the phone turned off or something?

Mine was on wifi with auto updating blinkfeeds, and plenty plenty of whatsapp message and emails coming in. Replied some whatsapp messages but did not play games / videos or anything that requires heavy CPU.

3 hours could only get me from 4% to 85% or so. and after that it slowed down to a crawl so perhaps 3.5 hours is my estimate.

Were you using the HTC One ori charger? Or other chargers?

Will try charging again tonight after drain and hopefully it gets better.

Confirmed can with my HTC One.

You mean from DirectD? Well, should be okay but make sure that he is willing to give warranty for speaker blowout, screen issues, etc etc. I nearly bought from him but luckily my friend managed to secure an SiS unit on the same day itself.

Nice work there bro.

But knowing Senheng's heavy advertising, the chances of the stock still being available are REALLY slim.

Whoever wants it, better call like NOW itself.

Purchased with Digi plan?

I agree.

People always say maxis cut-throat this and that, but they still provide the BEST data coverage with very good signal strength.

Other providers might be cheaper but you get what you pay for. And in some cases, the other providers are 'conning' you by giving you below-standard services.

Yes, I'm still very impressed with the battery on my HTC One. The battery bar takes a hard time to go down! LOL.

I would say it feels like it can last longer on heavy usage compared to the Note II I had some time back.

Very satisfied. Now I won't even think twice about not getting the S4.

Any major benefits?

If only there's a way to ROOT and put a feature to wake the phone without pressing the physical top button.
Like my BlackBerry Z10 can wake the phone by just swiping the screen from the bottom up. Wish Android can do it too with all its customizations!!!

Oh that's nice. But the bad part is, the volume buttons are harder to press than the lock button.

Still I hope there's support for Sweep2Wake which I'm using now on my Nexus 4. Just swipe to wake the phone.

Hmm.. The proximity light sensor is not really practical to be used as such I think. Remember, even keeping your phone in the pocket is similar to swiping it. I could be wrong though. Maybe you could enlighten me.

There's only ONE reason I stayed away from S4. It looks just like a S3 / Note 2, which is just lame.

The HTC One, on the other hand, is like the rose among the thorns in the Android world. The metal build is similar to the iPhone 5, which is why Apple fans are all over it even though the screen just went bigger by 0.5".

Most people nowadays that got for TOP-END smartphones are tech-savvy or at least read online reviews. The HTC One is touted as BEST smartphone in most reviews even when pitted against S4. It's only a matter of time when HTC's supply catches up with overwhelming demand. But still, HTC's QC is crap, and HTC original warranty in Malaysia is pathetic (just reading their FB scares me).

Yes, Am waiting patiently for S-Off to be out first!

LOL. You are a bad influence to your dad.

Looks like you have one big HTC One family!

Wow. That's awesome. Didn't know the light sensor can be programmed so well. Gonna check it out once S-Off is out! Cheers

SenHeng extended warranty really that good? Perhaps I should have bought from them too.

Btw, anyone got any idea where to buy HTC One cases? Most online sellers don't even have stock (except Tskhor in Penang). Want to get one ASAP now. All SenHeng / SenQ branches have cases for sale?

Too many factors involved on Back Button problem , so I would recommend users NOT to worry unless it really happens to you.

Give you some examples of what the complaints are and my thoughts-
- Software / Firmware related (some said that the 'defects' disappeared after installing certain ROM / firmware)
- Not pressing properly (contact points of the button is indeed very small)
- Screen Protector (Lot of people complaint about this)
- Case (some said after using certain cases, the problem happened)
- Loose Glass Construction Over Button (This is what I think is likely the case. If you are the person who always keeps you phones in your pants / jeans pocket, you might destroy / dislodge / loosen the construction in the bottom part of the phone which is most likely the cause).

All in all, the HTC One is fragile as hell. And HTC's support/warranty is lousy / slow. Only get the HTC One if you are willing to keep in in the service centre for a few months if anything happens to it.

For me, if my HTC One ever ends up in their service centre (touch wood!) I will actually just go out and buy another one to use in the mean time (provided no other Android phones better than the HTC One are released by then).

BEST Android phone I have ever used to date (have owned Note II, S3, Nexus 4, etc etc).

Here's a quote from http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/htc-user...082270-221.html

There seem to be two back button scenarios
1. Must tap exactly on the back icon to get it to work
2. Back button stops working completely (no matter where u tap, near or on icon, no response) for 10-40s then it start working on its own again. Alternatively, turning off/on screen will make it function immediately.

For (1) ppl claim that to solve this, you can try recalibrate using settings->language & keyboard ->sense input ->advanced-> recalibrate . Not sure if screen protector really makes it worse though but if you're using included htc sp, make u wanna remove and test since there's one more piece if u still wanna use it

For (2) you can try replicate the problem by turning on haptic feedback(so easier to tell whether working or not), then spam press back button with one finger while other finger open, close or use apps. Guaranteed to trigger the "dead" back button within 20-40s if it is indeed present. This case nothing to do with sp or even firmware for that matter since flashing custom firmware didnt help. You better bring to telco shop or svc centre for 1-1 exchange if still within the xchange period

No way the HTC Butterfly battery life is close to HTC One.

HTC One has smaller screen, and much higher capacity than Butterfly.

I'm very satisfied with HTC One battery life. It really can get me through the day on quite heavy use. I would say even when I was using Note II last time, the HTC One performs as good when it comes to web browsing, etc.

LoL! I did like 15-20 speed tests over a week while being in different LTE-enabled locations. Guess what? About 800MB gone just like that!

Unfortunately I'm always on the move and am not tethered to WiFi at times, so I'm mostly on LTE / 3G. Yet, the battery life is really stellar! No regrets at all.

My only thought is that HTC really optimized Sense 5.0 very very well on battery consumption. Can you imagine I charge my HTC One at about the same frequency for which I charged my 3100mah-battery Note II last time.

Don't miss out on not getting S4 (with bigger battery) a single bit!
