Some buddies was bashing the HTCone today - AT&T HTC One (M7)

I'm friends are diehard Samsung fans... So they seen a htcone and started in on how much better the screen is on the S4 better compared to the htcone I simply pulled out this picture
And walked away and have not heard a word from them on the subject
I thought it was funny so thought I would make a post about it

This is why we call "owned". Go HTC.

Originally I was on the Samsung bandwagon but never owned the device. The company seemed to make all the right decisions at the time.
Then I got my HOX and bought my sis her S3... Then I knew HTC was doing big things just not getting much credit. My One's screen is just amazing.
Great post to drive that point home! haha

just to add i let the same few buddies play with my HONE and now they hare considering buying a ONE lol they loves how fluid it is compared to crapwiz

OP where did that image comparison come from? I've wanted a good One/S4 screen comparison since these two phones were announced.

Droid-Life did a full review of the GS4 and included a macro comparison.

Here's another screen comparison. Doesn't have an icon comparo like the OP tho.

Fanboy circlejerk is literally hitler..
But seriously, stuff like this is why I stopped going to the Int'l One forum for a while. I was hoping it wouldn't happen here, too. IMHO it doesn't do anything except create hate between users of two different phones. One of my friends has an iPhone 5 and is happy to try to convince me that it is the **** every time I see him. I just nod politely and move along.

That my friend is what we call a walk off base hit. Good shyt

I was standing on campus the other day and heard this from a girl standing with a guy:
"HTC's are so stupid. They're the stupidest phones. They can't do anything!"
That is what she said, verbatim. I almost wanted to punch myself in the face for just hearing something that incredibly ignorant. I don't have much shame, but verbally beating down this idiot amongst my peers is not something even I can do or is it worth the effort. THIS is who HTC has to market to. Freaking idiots.

Who cares what they say? Love your phone, tell them to get stuffed

LoL I did similar things almost exactly a year ago, that's the time of galaxy s3 and HOX,
Oh well hope HTC could win this time, even the golleria glass 3rd gen is much better than the one on HTC one which is 2nd gen

I know everyone is saying "just ignore them" yadda yadda yadda. I disagree and here is why:
HTC isn't Apple or Samsung. Several reviewers have called the HTC One the "hail mary" before they bite the dust, and they may be right. If we want to see HTC keep building these amazing devices, we have to educate in order to make a sell in order to keep them in business. We are the nerds that friends and family go to when they have a question about their phones (and computers too, of course). They may say something like "well the Apple commercial said the iPhone can do THIS!" or "the Samsung commercial said the Galaxy can do THAT". We know what ALL phones are capable of doing because it's our passion. Everyone, at least in the HTC forums, know that our phone can trump nearly every feature on both the iPhone 5 and the GS4, thus, we need to show off our phones capabilities whenever we are hanging out with our friends or family.
TL;DR: If the HTC One doesn't sell well, it may be the last HTC phone ever. Show off your phone and keep them in business! :good:

So, basically, your argument is that you should be allowed to bash other phones and cause random flame wars just because it might, somehow, convince someone to buy a HTC phone. That's never going to work.
1. You're going to be arguing/disputing/whatever with a fanboy. Not someone who doesn't know anything about mobile hardware and the difference between a "Galaxy" and a "HTC," but a full-blown fanboy. They're never going to buy whatever phone you're forcing them to consider.
2. Even if it was someone who wasn't a fanboy, you arguing and trying to make them see that your phone is the god of all phones isn't exactly going to make them buy it--if anything they're less likely, because since you were so militantly trying to justify why anybody would buy your phone it would seem that there is some buyer's remorse, at least in their eyes.
3. Like I said in my other post, flame wars do NOTHING. They don't affect overall phone sales and they don't prove anything. There are probably thousands if not millions of iSheep who believe iPhones are by far the best phones and will take that opinion to their grave. Doesn't change the fact that Apple's losing market share and that Apple's stock is in a downward spiral.
But if you really want to go ahead and be a fanboy, go ahead. I really don't care. Just don't let it get in the way of real discussion. Also, it'd be great if you didn't automatically assume everything Samsung makes is crap just because it's a Samsung. Not everyone shares your opinion. I personally hate Apple but I have to admit the iPhone 5 is a pretty good phone. It's just not something I would like. Just a suggestion.
