A Comparison Between the HTC One M8 and the iPhone 5S Dr. HTC JUNE 11, 2014 0 The HTC One M8 and the iPhone 5S have both been out for the public to enjoy for a while now. But the two luxury smartphones have not been compared that much as it is often the Samsung Galaxy S5 that is always in the middle. While there are many reviews out there, it is hard to just imagine what each smartphone could do. This comparison will be a walk through so you would know how it really is when someone has been able to actually use it for a few months. On Physical Aspects Obviously, the HTC flagship phone is a lot bigger than the iPhone 5S. Currently, there are rumors going around that Apple will more likely release a bigger iPhone 6. But for right now, the One M8 is much bigger as it is 20% wider, 24% thicker and 18% longer. For a more physical feel, the iPhone slips right onto your hand while the One M8 is a bit meatier in the pocket. Although the 5S is a lot lighter, the M8 gives you the advantage of having a bigger screen for a better media and apps experience. The iPhone’s screen is actually only 64% of the M8’s actual screen, so that is a very big difference. A Comparison Between the HTC One M8 and the iPhone 5SThe screens of the two phones are both sharp but the HTC One M8 is evidently sharper. In fact, if you place the smartphones beside each other, a difference in the pixel density is very evident. For the body, the two are actually similar as they have aluminum unibodies. The battery is not an issue when dealing with the two phones. During the standard test conducted, a video was streamed using Wi-Fi and both phones had their brightness set at 75%. During this test, the battery of the HTC One lasted longer than the iPhone, even 49% longer. This puts the battery of the M8 at a greater advantage than the iPhone. HTC One VS iPhone 5S: The X-Factor The edge that the HTC smartphone has over the iPhone 5S is the Extreme Power Saving Mode feature that it offers. This feature will let you use the One M8 even with just 1% of battery life for a few extra hours. This is definitely a breakthrough when it comes to battery life, and should give the M8 a big boost in the race of smartphones.
