Actually the HTC One has a much different camera than the One X+. The 4 megapixels "Ultrapixel" camera makes each individual pixel larger, which lets in more light and produce better low-light pictures. Go to Google and search for some camera comparisons and you will see the HTC One defeats the iPhone in terms of low-light pictures.

If Apple still decides to stay where they are, enjoying profits, and does not bring any innovation to the market, I can see them be in where Microsoft, Nokia, and Blackberry had ended up.

At what point along the way has Apple been just sitting back and enjoying profits?

Pixel wise its a step back. HDR wise at the moment it's a step back as its currently very inconsistent often resulting in over contrast areas or softness/blurring. The camera software on the one really needs some work, whereas on the iPhone 5 'it just works'.....

For social media it can produce some great shots, if your looking to blow anything up for printing stick with the iPhone 5 or 5S or SGS4.


A few pics from today on the one.

Those are great shots. The most I would ever blow anything up would be to print a 4x6 inch photo... Nothing more than that. I probably will give it a trial run.

Yeah at 4x6 and 5x7 you'll have no trouble, it will take great shots for that size. Likewise for sharing with folks via social network, email, Instagram or the HTC Zoe Share feature its very good.
