I care about that. If the outside case if made of indestructible metal, but the inner parts are cheap and prone to short out on humid days, then I'd rather not buy it. Obvioiusly that's just a weird example, but none the less I'm probably more concerned (at least just as concerned) about the quality and craftsmanship of the *actual* working parts of the device. I generally consider the outside casing nothing more that aesthetics, especially since I generally use a case anyway...

That's kind of the point that was being made, people are referring to "build quality", but only judging this aspect based on the materials use to build the outside case and buttons, and not the internal working components.

But what company sells a phone based on how indestructible the inside components are.. All inside components are fragile thats why they have a solid casing to protect it.
 
Lol of course the One would win its on the One forum
I never really liked the shape of HTC phones...that curved back is kinda ugly
The front of the HTC One looks real nyce though...just don't like the back
 
I voted htc one at first I. Was all about the s4 but I've changed my mind. I like that samsung is trying to. Push the boundaries of what you can do with your phone but I just cant take this super dim screen any longer. I can barely see the screen on my s3 and if the s4 isn't better in that respect it will be a non starter
 
I was going to wait for the S4 to come out and compare it against the HTC> i've never owned an HTC phone before and thought it was a good idea to wait.

However, the huge number of the positive reviews swayed me and I now have an HTC One and I am extremely happy with it to the point that I have relegated my iPhone 5 and Samsung S2.
 
Yes its the best overall but it isnt a no compromise device. They compromised on the plastic body. I think it will have a great build quality but the build materials could have definitely been better

Everyone complains about build quality but the truth is you folks are complaining about whether a phone is made of plastic or aluminum. Is that really a hill you folks want to die on? People complain that plastic phones feel cheaper but they put putting it in a case......that aluminum phones feel more sturdy but they actually damage easier (iPhone 5 as an example). My experience is that the Apple phones were actually easier to damage than any other phone I've ever used. Looks are important.... but functionality is the determining factor. Build quality is based on functionality durability. As far as build quality I'll put my Gnex up against anything.....I could care less if it's plastic or aluminum. It looks cool it functions great and it's durable. What else matters?

I've seen way more iPhones have cracked screens than Android phones. That might just be bad luck though.

I think that is because God smites them. I asked Facebook God once about the android/apple thing and he said they rock S3's in heaven.

Apparently when people are buying a phone the strength of components inside matters :confused:.. That's the craziest one ive heard

I never complained about Samsung build quality because it's great as I stated I'm sure the S4 will be even better.

I would rather have aluminum though, would make a better looking phone.

But no, build quality and build materials are totally different but a lot of people don't seem to understand that.
