Why not get all three:p? BTW, among these phones, htc one would be better as you have already used S3 an Note 2, so S4 is just like a combination of these two except that there are few new software features which will soon be made available in S3 and Note 2 with the next Software Update. Xperia Z is water proof but who wants to keep their phone in a water bottle or use it in heavy monsoon? Therefore, htc one is better. I really like the blinkfeed live homescreen. Rest, the choice is up to you.

I used a smaller phone the other day after using two 5+ inch phones for couple of months. Damn it felt nice in the hand!

Well, among the phones you mentioned, I'd say go for the One. Its stylish, well-built and has great specs.

I myself was planning to buy GS4 but now that it will have Tizen instead of Android...I might go with Htc One or Sony Xperia. I'm more of a android fan. Don't know how Tizen will succeed and how strong there support and development will be.

I will let one of the foremost authorities on tech do the talking. Since Anandtech is the oldest and most trusted word on technology.... do read through the comments.

AnandTech | The HTC One: A Remarkable Device, Anand

My only suggestion would be to not fall for gimmicks or over hyped marketing. Buy a phone for the 90% of the things you'd do with it. Imagine using the HTC One in low light conditions of a Mehndi... it will give awesome results while the S4 will give the same dark blurry images of S3 (Only upgrade in S4 camera is the file and dpi size and nothing else)

Nope I had GS3 & One X but I sold them a month ago, then I was going to order nexus 4 but luckily, I got a chance to check my friend's Nexus 4 and I'm glad I didn't bought it, bcz after using GS3, One X, iPhone 5, I simply couldn't bear nexus 4 display, it's looks dull and it's brightness level was lower then what i expected, it gets hot while i was playing Asphalt 7.
So I didn't bought it.

Exactly but I used Note 2 for a day the only thing which bothered me was low ppi and extra .5 inch, it's kinda difficult for guy like me to use it single handed, But now Galaxy S4 has a perfect 5 inch screen with 1080p super amoled with 441ppi I simply can't go for any other option

Btw there's no doubt HTC One build quality is great but now I'm getting even more confused to choose?

GS4 Display & powerful GPU vs HTC One Build Quality & appearance

Damn look like it'll be all over same case with GS3 & One X and I ended up buying both but this I can't buy both???

Help me guys

Then S4 is great. I really like the metal sides like those of BB Bold 4. Display is also great. All other features are also fantastic.

what is your priority bro?? screen sizes are the same... you like ips or amoled better?? gs4 will have the best camera/performance/features etc but it is quite expensive right now and i know for a fact that note series is the new samsung flagship and not the galaxy S series as the note series is always miles better... htc one is supposedly better looking than gs4, although i think it looks equally bad so i give this one to xperia Z... xperia Z is water proof(fap in the shower ftw)... i am sure gs4 will win out on battery time too but i am not so sure....

what i think is that looking for performance is shit as even quadcore cortex A9 are more than enough... so screen/looks/features/camera/battery should be considered... all are mostly preference other than battery... so you should do you own research rather than asking as everyone will just take the side of the company they like and bash the company they hate... if you have note2 and liked it then i would suggest get a simple smartphone which is cheap yet solid and wait for note3 which will be ultra delicious... if you like iphones then 5s would be here earlier than the note3...

well maybe... but note3 will be better than s4 with similar hardware but everything better optimized... there is a certain finesse to the note series that you won't find in the galaxy S series... gs3 was puke worthy in my eyes...

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
