Actually, I sold the HTC One, and bought a second hand Z1 already. After buying the Z1 and buying the 64gb Micro SD card, the difference cost me about $100. I think it was a good deal. I will miss the HTC One, but the Z1 is a definite upgrade in all areas except the display and the speakers.

Yes, Google photo management is a mess. It seems like their emphasis is just to push you into using their services in the cloud. I have deleted all of my Google Plus photos in the cloud and turned off camera upload. I will start over using only Sony's gallery app, which is quite good, but...

I am using a Sony Zperia Z1 phone running Android 4.3, and a Nexus 7 tablet running 4.4.1. Having no success at syncing photos between the two devices using Google Photo App which is part of Google + on both devices. All my photos taken on both devices are unploaded to google drive and google...

The Z1 has expandable storage. I just popped in a 64 gb MicroSD. Better camera, dedicated shutter button and water proof are the three pros that helped me choose the Z1.

I have the same problem. The video doesn't automatically upload. In addition, this feature it so buggy It's practically useless. List of problems below 1) Often freezes while rendering video. 2) Have to be online, cannot create video natively on your device. 3) Does not save automatically...

The sweetest problem??? Can you clarify?

The Xperia Gallery App is clean and works well, however I can't figure out a way to create new events or folders. Is there w way to view photos in folders separately by events instead of just one big folder organised by date or location? I was using an HTC One before, where i could create...

I can sell my HTC One 64 GB Developer's Edition for 450 USD and buy New XPeria Z1 for 650USD. Do you think this is a good trade? I still like the HTC One, but I want a better camera, though I know it's already good in some situations. I also really want dedicated camera button From What...

Thanks for the advice, but I'm not with a contract on a carrier. The carriers usually delay the updates anyway. I use a pre-paid sim card that I use in Asia. I've received an OTA bug fic from HTC before, and OTA updates for my HTC one X last year, so HTC obviously pushes the updates out in...

It is my understanding that Developer's Edition get's OTA updates directly from HTC. I'm not in North America. I'm in Asia right now.

Since the 4.2.2 update was announced in the beginning of July, I've been checking every day without luck. I know UK and parts of Europe received the 4.2.2 update weeks ago. I'm using the Developer's Edition purchased directly from HTC and not through any carrier, so I don't know why it's...

5 million is a great start in just over a month. HTC doesn't need to sell as many phones as Samsung to be successful. In fact, if only half or a third as many Ones sell as GS III, that would already be a massive success. Samsung is just a juggernaut with a higher advertising budget than HTC's...

Yes, I know it can be done with one hand as I used to have a One X. But you do have to shift the phone in your hand in a way that becomes uncomfortable, particularly when done repeatedly. I know it's a trivial matter for most HTC users. However, the Xperia Z/ZL has the power button on the side...

Well, I'm now leaning toward getting the One Developer edition 64 gb. I can let go of the lack of camera shutter button and no expandable storage (64 gb is enough). The last issue for me to get over is the difficulty reaching the power button whilst using the phone one-handed. Really wish...
