is the bug/hardware defect in HTC one causing this kind of problem. Once the ISO is pushed high, the purple tint happen. Reported the firmware update only control the camera using lower ISO possible to prevent this happen. Is actually hardware defect because user try to change one on one and got better unit

One of them just exchanged for one x to one, doesnt seems to hv that issue.. another one bought long ago is experiencing that..

yea its sexy but if upgrade from one x.. its almost like ntg much.. kinda bored..

what i hate on HTC is the app menu, scrolling down is really annoying. But there is still obvious changes on sense from version to newer version, not bad at all.

recently, i saw an xperia z model at senQ and the viewing angle seems to be much better than those i've seen previously. i believe it's either Sony has secretly improved the display or they are sourcing from different suppliers resulting in different appearance. from reviews of the Z1, this seems to be the case whereby there are those who say that it's only marginally better than Z while there are those that says it's vastly improved. confusing

Actually, if you check and following the update of Z, recent firmware did helps to improve the viewing quality. Maybe they adjusted the brightness output vs the colour production.

from lycus trading. i already suspect that i get the 2nd batch onwards XZ1

anyway HTC one still wins the screen quality hands down lol

but so far im loving my XZ1  laugh.gif

A short review/first impression and comparison would be great since you are user for both high end phone. A review/comparison in terms of build, UI, software, camera, etc will be better. thumbup.gif

ok i try

Screen: no doubt HO wins on this category (miles ahead lol) but XZ1 still doing ok  nod.gif

Camera: XZ1 is just great (still maybe cant beat 1020 but it's nokia  laugh.gif ) and this is one of the reason im changing to XZ1 from HO

Build quality: i'd say both of them are good in this department

Software: cant say much since i havent really explore my XZ1 yet

UI: im comfortable with both. it's android anyway so there isnt much differences right?
*
damn, sounds great, thanks. how bout the smoothness and responsiveness? such as running web page and multi tasking?

Lol i left all my previous phones for my family to use.. and almost all of it still working well..

The problem is all my family member dont want my S2, the battery couldn't hold up a day, i have charger all around my activities parameter.

This is what you should do. Use it until its spoil. Then you can only consider a new phone.

Yea, riku, early absorber is always risky and bearing the high cost, i bought the S2 the first week it available, serve me so well, should use it until it broken. Fix USB port once and change battery to SunGlobal. Problem is it couldn't last long. Now waiting for nexus 5 or Z1 mini as excuses to keep using old one. sweat.gif

X-change program.
wonder how much S2 can cash back. See the RRP is 2399 and street price is 2199, if the rebate is just 200, i don't see any attraction over this program.

Good thing my screen is normal. Well, can't be 100% sure but I guess as long as I feel it's normal, why bother right? Anyway, with some getting used to the camera, it really flies now, no noise in the dark just bright images thumbup.gif

Yup, totally agree, why you bother with the comparison just to let you down. If you love it when you first open it, and hate it after knowing the difference, then this is bad news to you. The photo is great, love the Tunnel photo. thumbup.gif If you see the comparison from pocketnow, the comparison between Z1 and HTC One, see how yellowish the ONE is.
