Note 2 all the way. Hands down
and you didn't tell me one fucking useful thing…
I'm really debating on both note 2 or s4. I have an HTC one and have had a note 2 b4, but battery life disappointed me
The larger the screen, the more battery is consumed. That's why the note 2 has a 3100 mah battery.
"-But the smaller display gives to HTC One higher pixel density" WTF?
The smaller display the higher resolution? It's better display thats it.
One of the reasons i never subscribed to this channel – amateurs comparing non comparable devices. Channel target quantity over quality.
The note has a 3100mah battery
You said that the note 2 has a 3300 mAH battery. Isn't it 3100?
Galaxy s 4 does
Nothing beats note 2
Because everything is base on taste, the GN2 wins due to better battery life IMO. Who wants to carry a phone and always be worry about using it because it might run out of battery…..EXACTLY.
HTC looks nice. But the touchwiz is not friendly.
its like saying 2012 vs 2013…….2012 wins 🙂

Note 2
Note 2
HTC Or Note 2? :S
Htc one looks epic
Truthfully the gs4 or htc hasnt done enough to get me out my note 2
Watching on note 2!
I have the Note 2, Wouldnt trade it for anything….. HTC looks nice but I love my Samsung 🙂
No; the other way around. That is to demonstrate the point
Pixel Density isn't as important as people think. Here is an example as to why. You take two tvs; a 32" 720p LCD TV, and a 60" 1080p LED TV. Answer these questions correctly, and them tell me how important pixel density. Which one has the better pixel density, and which one has the overall better picture.
Note 2 has expandable sd card slot. Htc one does not……….. Enough said.
Battery mAh is worthless without knowing power consumption of the device the battery is supplying. An analogy might be to state that a Hummer H2's 32 gallon fuel capacity is SUBSTANTIALLY better than the 11.9 gallon capacity of a Prius.
Note 2 is not a cheap phone wouldn't u rather have the note 2 material then a htc one I know it won't break if I drop it and the only reason htc has a better screen because its smaller thats why they made it that size to get better pixel
Of the quad core phones. The Note 2 has the best battery. And i want a quad core phone.
actually the note 2 doesn't have the best battery life the droid razr max does comingbin at 3300mahs I belove. I have note 2 and its a beast with battery life tho
Battery life is the factor that tips the Note 2 to the win column for me. HTC One is damn sexy but I'm pretty sure I'll calm down and get over how great it looks. End of the day it boils down to usability and the Note 2 is just packed with features that improves productivity.
Okay easy way to say galaxy note win is by just saying its bigger I know size doesn't Really matter but it makes sense for a galaxy because now people only care about a phone if it has video chat,nternet browser, YouTube , Games , Netflix, Message and more now all that is much fun in a big screen and yeah it my be slower in something than a iPhone by .080 secs but Really does that bit sec Really means anything ?
@giorattin1 HTC One is not better in all aspects. Note 2 has the superior battery life which is my #1 reason that I'll b buying this phone in my next upgrade. I need a phone with the best battery on the market. Note 2!!!!!
The Galaxy Note 3 should be a bit better, Im a size queen so the battery, the power, and the screen will sure make my choice easier…better if it has a s pen for me to poke ppl with. 🙂
How does the RGB matrix compare to the LCD3 screen? Does it still have the blue tint when displaying whites?
then you should say the same to all quad core equipped smartphones…
I love my galaxy note 2 yeah the HTC One is better looking but im used to the size of my note I also heared there working on galaxy s4 which will be bigger than galaxy note If its true im going to get it thats just me.
The note 2 pen is a farce. Try holding it and use the button. I KNOW BECAUSE I HAD ONE.The pen on note 2 is never the most frequently used part of the phone.
Processing power doesn't even mean a shit if you can't use it's potential to max. There's no features in One that uses the proc to max except gaming. No running 2 apps at the same time, and that BlinkFeed is just Flipboard wannabe
All its missing is a bigger screen
Raw power is useless since the quad 1,5ghz era… The one photo and sound features kill the note 2 by so many ways it is disapointing samsung doesn't focus more on these aspects of their phones.
Htc one doesn`t have s pen …
