You are not mistaken, but missed one step in between, SGS 4 i9505 blush.gif

Frankly speaking, I see no reason to upgrade from HTC One to Nexus 5 if your HTC One is working perfectly, e.g. no camera purple tint.

The Nexus 5 is the fastest among the three (HTC One, SGS 4), but out of the three, SGS 4 was the slowest and by a big margin. Slow as in response time, the fluidness/smoothness of just swiping the screen. EDIT: Too much Samsung bloatware.

Out of the box, HTC One has the best package, in terms of Blinkfeed, and simple things like a button build into Sense to turn on the LED as a flashlight.

For the Nexus 5, it is a Google device, plain vanilla and you can do literally whatever you want with it.

So it depends what YOU use it for. If you like to tinker a lot, and customize stuff to your unique liking, Nexus 5 hands down. If you're lazy, not bothered and you just want something as a whole package, its the HTC One.

As for ergonomics, HTC One wins hands down. For 1 handed operation, the Nexus 5 works, but the HTC One works even better with its smaller screen - easier to grip and use with 1 hand, and the buttons below. On Nexus 5, the buttons take up the space on the screen. Zzz.

Nexus 5 is nice finish, but HTC One is much nicer. And the HTC One feels more of a premium device.

Why am I using a Nexus 5? Because HTC One is faulty, i cannot stand paying RM1.9k for a top end device that has a faulty camera that is unable to take pictures properly. Otherwise I'd still be using HTC One today.

It is cool bro. Now on Nexus 5, I can say it is the best Android device right now. HTC One is faulty so don't count. haha.

The Nillkin SP.. its very clear la, but hardness, OMG, I didn't put with keys or anything, next day big ass deep scratch d. That's the fastest I have gotten scratches on SP.. even using the sticker with the word NEXUS on it for 4 days also no scratch. Clarity, top notch, can fight Spigen, but durability..meh

Going to order Spigen Ultra Crystal.. guess its still the benchmark for SP.

He is definately legit. Thats why I dont like pre-order shyt. Take too much time and no guarantee. I rather pay more for ready stock.

Problem is, when sellers got ready stock, people complain expensive and this and that. lol. I sold my white Aus for RM1760.

What they don't realize, I paid AUD$160 to ship it to Malaysia via DHL Express.

People want fast, want ready stock, but not willing to pay. thumbup.gif Not realistic lah this people.

I guess their best option is to buy from shops who has a network set up, like DirectD.
