The HTC One is definitely one of the best phones of the year, and makes it a very difficult choice for those of us who love iPhones or Samsung handsets, not to rush back to the devil we know, but to consider something different and very elegant.
Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 review

More accurately, it’s closer to being an upgraded version of the HTC One S. While it’s true that HTC we expect HTC to unveil some shiny new gadgetry on February 21st (three days hence), we still thought that we’d grab ourselves a One V and take it for a test run.
