Hey all in Android land! Just switched over to the One from an iPhone 5/ Galaxy S4 (long story short I had the GS4 for a day) and so far so good! I had a few reservations but most of those seem to have been for not. Here goes!

I love the screen. Not much I can say except that it's the best on a mobile device period.
Sound quality is amazing! Not a fan of the bundled headphones so I used my Apple Earpods and wow. Base sounds amazing, sounds are crisp and I hear instruments I didn't know where in the songs.
Sense is much more appealing that Touchwiz. It looks much less cartoony and has a nice flat feel that I like. It's also snappier and overall works better than TW.
Camera is decent and takes better pictures than I thought. Haven't gotten the chance to play with Zoe or anything fancy yet but it looks awesome!

So far I love this thing and it doesbt hurt that I got it for $199 off contract because Best Buy read my price match wrong. Not sure about a case yet as this thing is gorgeous. Can't wait to have more time with it. Definitely wanna root and possibly post more threads on here but I wanted to share what I thought compared to what I had.

Boxwave has an affordable crystal clear hard-case shell for this phone. Provides decent protection and still keeps the beauty of the phone. Check it out =)

Amazed how many iPhone users are buying HTC Ones. I wonder if it is the largest changeover for Apple? It sure feels like it. I made the move last year to an S3, and I am still waiting for my HTC One. Argh! Should be any day now.

Well done OP. Remember, stick with it!

Another Apple convert here. had my iPhone 4 for over two years and I changed my mind about a 100 times in the week leading up to the upgrade. I've had my One a whole 24 hours now and I have to say so far, so great! Just love how apps work nicer together as compared to iOS.

I am sure as I continue to get to know Android and the One I will come across things that the iPhone did better or that I miss, but I so far I am sure this is a great change.
