I can see how it can be difficult to hold if you do not have a pinky finger. But the way I hold my phones is by putting my pinky at the bottom of the phone and use my other finger for grip.

Wow. That dude is a complete *****. Can't figure out the camera? Has to go to a freakin' Sprint store to figure out how to add a home page? There's no way he is even marginally qualified to write anything tech related.
Okay. I don't have the S4, or the One, or a Nexus. I'm on the verge of upgrading at the moment, and even then, this review is bad. If I take emotion out if it, the review is poorly written and executed. In fact, the content of it could have been gathered from standing in the store for 45 minutes (or less) and messing with the phone, talking to the rep, and with inspiration from drop tests for the grill coming off or another review source. It's just poor work overall.
I don't know about you folks...but the first thing I did was open the camera and take a picture when I held it in store, no problem at all.
"HTC, please leave the software stuff up to software companies such as Google, Microsoft and Facebook!"
So leave it to the people who haven't brought a decent Facebook app that's comfortable to use and a system that plasters a social media site all over your phone. I can't tell if this guy is looking for people to disregard him or what, but that's pretty bold to throw HTC below Facebook.
This whole article feels like an Apple or Samsung fanboy review you'd find on a forum or blog.
It's Yahoo. I've begun to look at their reporting as a source of entertainment, much like The Onion, though I think the validity and quality of The Onion is probably better (it certainly is superior in terms of readability).

This reporter must be a total moron. I picked up my one last saturday and found it quite simple to set up. I have an HTC one x, evo 3D, Nexus 4 sand iPod 5 and this was just as easy to set up. It fits in ny hand perfectly and is a pleasure to use. Maybe he should pick the device up for a couple if days use before he feels qualified enough to write a review.

He is free to an opinion, but when posits such an uninformed opinion such as:
Really? REALLY?
I mean....
Either he was on crack or he never picked up the phone?
I picked up the demo unit at the AT&T store. Launched the camera app. Saw the screen. Hit camera icon. Ah. Ok. Took photo. And that's that.
I think even that would be too complicated for him. Too many buttons!

Can someone help me find the take picture button? I've hit everything and just can't figure it out!
Unfortunately yes. Their traffic numbers for the finance section specifically blow away all competitors. They're also at or near the top for traffic on their sports section. I think the rest of the site not nearly as heavily trafficked, but they are still significant.
Nice "unbiased" review there Yahoo from an obvious Samsung fanboy. Unfortunately a hardware malfunction befell this device while in the hands of this lunkhead. He doesn't explain how he managed to break the phone in his pocket. Did he sit on it? Does he weigh 300 pounds and had trouble dragging it out of the pocket of his skinny jeans? No explanation offered. It broke, therefore it sucks. What a moron. Do they actually pay this guy?

Lol whoever gave this guy his journalism degree should feel ashamed. I feel like I just read a review written by a second grader.

What I'm curious about is... What's 801.11ac?
Seems like a simple typo, but that's not the kind of mistake a competent tech writer makes. Leave it to the finance clods to make an entire company look like crap.

I have GN and without a case on it the phone is very slippery, but it didn't stop me from buying it.
I went into a AT&T store today to look at the S4 and One, I didn't really mess with the software too much, I just wanted to get a hand feel on both of them. The S4 felt good in the hand and not to big or that slippery. The One just didn't feel good in my hand at all, of course it feels like a solid phone and does look great! But it just didn't feel good in my hand, something about were the curved back meets the sides just doesn't work for me.
In other words I guess I'm 2 in a million LOL.

I guess you didn;t read the part were he said the Samsung software was just as bad as HTC's software?
How often do you find anything useful on Yahoo! anyway? Sure, the One is not perfect, but obviously this guy has something stuck up his ****.
